TREATMENTS
SPECIALIZED TREATMENT FOR STRESS RELIEF
This specialized bodywork session is geared towards awakening the parasympathetic nervous system that puts our bodies into “rest and digest” mode as it calms the sympathetic “fight or flight” mode. Acupressure designed to sedate the fight or flight energy meridian is often incorporated and you will leave with a few simple acupressure techniques you can use on yourself whenever you feel nervous or stressed in daily life. If necessary, skeletal energy techniques like Zero Balancing can be integrated to ensure that your stress relief goes bone deep. Life’s stresses will never cease, but this integrated body therapy strengthens ones resilience to life’s stress by coordinating and strengthening the parts of you that have become discombobulated under stressful stimulus. If pain is contributing to stress, those issues will be addressed as well.
SPECIALIZED TREATMENT FOR LOWER BACK AND HIP PAIN
This integrated bodywork session, specialized in relieving acute and chronic lower back pain, includes massage, gentle skeletal alignment and neuromuscular re-patterning. With this deep and precise method, your pelvis, hips, lumbar and lower ribcage is not only released and aligned, but taught (non-verbally) how to hold the new more functional muscle recruitment pattern for longer periods of time. This work is supportive of herniated spinal discs, stenosis, sciatica and other common lower back/pelvic conditions. It also provides support and relief for those with no diagnosis and just a lot of pain and discomfort.
INTEGRATED BODYWORK
This is an opportunity to allow the particular needs of your body and mind to determine the course of the healing session, right in the moment. Here, all of the available modalities are free to be mixed and matched to best serve the unique needs of the individual. As alive beings, we are always shifting and changing and our tensions are always transferring to and from one kind of tissue to another. Bones, fluid, muscles and energy all get equal time or whatever unequal ratio of time that best serves the whole person.
MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
This clinical modality is for treating swelling from injury or surgery, general bloating and water retention. Recent studies have shown this technique is indicated for migraines, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. This method is highly recommended by doctors for post surgical operation to aid in full recovery. It is also recommended for healthy people looking for detoxification, immune system boost, or relaxation for those who need very light pressure.
ZERO BALANCING
A hands-on, mind-body therapy that works predominantly on the level of the bony skeleton. This work not only releases tension in the bones, joints, ligaments and muscles but also aligns the skeleton and the large energy fields of the body. This method is very precise, deep, yet gentle and heightens a sense of well being, connection, balance and harmony while reducing body pain and discomfort, promoting postural alignment, and enhancing developmental processes and personality integration
THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE
Various forms of Therapeutic Massage including Deep Tissue/Sports, Swedish, Orthopedic, Prenatal, Trigger Point, Neuromuscular Re-Patterning, Myofascial Release and PNF Stretching may be incorporated. The massage techniques are chosen and mixed based on the unique needs and wants for the client and may differ from session to session as needed. With all the available massage techniques, the deep mechanisms of “rest and digest” will override the stressed out parts of you that are in ‘fight or flight’. Only high quality hypoallergenic lotions are used.
