Why am I posting this? 🤔 I specialize in unique, results-based therapies and depend on referrals, reviews, and recommendations because I don’t do regular massage. 🗣️🤷🏻‍♀️

Many of my clients have regular massage therapists (which I love!), they come to me for help with specific muscle, nerve, joint, spine pain or dysfunction and tricky conditions like fibromyalgia, neuropathy, and EDS/ hypermobility.

This was a comment on a local GJ page requesting help with low back pain. Lots of variables to consider there… History of former injuries, surgeries, car accidents, head injuries, repetitive movements in occupation or sports, structural issues such as scoliosis, foot stuff, and more.

The mystery is in the history and I look at everything to find, narrow down, and treat the underlying cause, often spending hours analyzing & customizing even before your first session.

Please call/text to schedule a free 15-min phone consultation or visit my website to learn more.

Finding & treating SCALENE muscles with trigger point compression can relieve these 👇👇👇 symptoms.

Compression, instread of stretching, is more effective for people with EDS/HMS because they do not have a normal stretch reflex response (meaning the brain can’t tell what normal range of motion is) so they can overstretch causing damage to joint tissues.

The SCALENES are thin muscles attached to both sides of the vertebrae in the neck. They go under the collar bone and attach to the 1st and 2nd ribs. When scalenes are tight or have trigger points, they can compress the nerves there and cause pain or numbness in the arms, hands, chest, or back of shoulders.

SCALENES are easy to treat yourself!

Schedule an appointment with an experienced myofascial trigger point therapist near you, or call/text for info on how I can help you remotely.

One of the perks of having an office in Ridgway! Immediate sore muscle/joint relief and very, very relaxing. 😎

💧 Have you ever wondered why you’re naturally drawn to hot springs for healing and renewal?

Tucked away in the San Juan mountains,
Orvis Hot Springs is more than a soak, it’s a natural medicine chest bubbling from the earth.

The waters here are rich with minerals like lithium, magnesium, calcium, and potassium.

Each element carries its own gift:

🌿 Lithium is known for its calming,
mood-balancing effects

🌿 Magnesium eases sore muscles and supports deep rest

🌿 Calcium & potassium nourish the bones, joints, and circulation

Even more, the water is 100% natural and untreated, emphasizing naural purity and authenticity in every soak.

Whether you’re drawn to the cooler 55° pools, the “lobster pot” at 112°, or the quiet of the private tubs, Orvis offers serene space to let the body unwind and the mind find clarity.

💧 It’s not just hot water… it’s earth’s own therapy.
And we cant wait to welcome you!

I love this one! I’m going to miss summer but ready for fall hikes!

🤣😂🤣 Gross, but very true. Shoe shape can perpetuate trigger points in muscles causing pain or dysfunction in feet, knees, hips, back, and neck.

“I’ve tried everything and nothing helps” or “______ helps for a few days but it always comes back” are frequent comments I hear from clients.

Most of the time the root cause is myofascial trigger points or adhesions & scar tissue from a healed injury or surgery. ❤️‍🩹

Adhesions & scar tissue can bind fascia, nerves, & other tissues together causing restricted movement, pain, numbness, stiffness, & other symptoms.

Call/ text to schedule a free phone consultation to learn more.

Adhesions and scar tissue are common complications of injury, surgery, and disease. These conditions can lead to chronic pain, limited mobility, and other problems. FSM has been found to be effective in melting adhesions and scar tissue by targeting specific frequencies that disrupt the formation of these tissues. This can be especially beneficial for conditions such as fibromyalgia, chronic pain, and chronic fatigue syndrome.

Intrinsic foot muscles & calf muscles work together to stabilize the foot & ankle. This helps prevent injury & improve athletic performance. 🦶💪

Read the text that accompanies this video for tips & cautions. 👀

I received a set of these toe strengtheners from a client as a gift. I’ll try them out and let you know what happens! 👍
