Therapist and movement specialist with over 20 years’ experience in postural alignment, pain-free movement, stress reduction, rehabilitation and neurological balance.
Therapies offered:
Cranial Sacral Therapy
Myofascial Release
Craniosacral Therapy:
is a type of non-invasive therapy where the client remains fully clothed. A light touch is used in different areas to release acute physical problems like headaches or bad backs, or long-standing problems both physical and/or emotional. This light touch acts as biofeedback for the system to restore balance. Cranial Sacral therapy can also be used as on-going support for rehabilitation or when in times of stress or challenge and is gentle enough for children and animals.
Myofascial Release Therapy:
Myofascial Release is a hands-on treatment without the use of oils/creams to accurately detect areas of restriction, to safely and effectively release these areas and restore full motion. Gentle sustained pressure is applied around the source of restriction or pain to allow viscous flow and release into the area and connected area functionality.
“Trauma, inflammatory responses, and/or surgical procedures create Myofascial restrictions that can produce tensile pressures of approximately 2,000 pounds per square inch on pain sensitive structures that do not show up in many of the standard tests (x-rays, myelograms, CAT scans, electromyography, etc.)” (www.myofascialrelease.com)
Aromatherapy:
The use and benefits of essential oils and herbs have been documented since ancient times.
Combining essential oils individually tailored for you with gentle healing massage, allowing you to experience complete relaxation for health, vitality and well being.
Neuromuscular Massage & Structural Integration:
Specially designed to release trigger points and the major myofascial lines on the body using a specific form of deep tissue massage using friction and pressure to release areas of pain and strain in the body. Useful for postural related problems.
