Back by popular demand… “The Works!” It’s two hours of self care! This one is a great service to book on Sundays this spring, where parking in the downtown Kirkwood business district has no parking 🅿️ time limit! You will be in the studio for at least two hours for this one, so it’s best to book on a day where you can let go of your stress 💯!!!

This spring you deserve “The Works!”

April is booking up fast!

Just a heads up… April is booking up fast and a majority of my guests are on monthly (some weekly) maintenance visits, so once I book up two months out, online booking takes a nap:) It seemed to work great like that last year and I wish to over deliver and under promise, so if you’re thinking about getting on the books, jump on it soon!

Thank you!

All stress in brain stress!

We can only heal fully when we’re in the parasympathetic state. If we’re only stressed all the time, we’re living in the reactive sympathetic state and our nervous systems can’t fully recover.

With the BrainTap technology, the user is gently guided from the highly stressed Beta brainwaves that are known for that “fight or flight/sympathetic response,” and into the dreamy, drowsy and relaxed alpha and theta states (think parasympathetic response/rest and digest).

So your eyes are closed, and you’re guided gently into these states without having to “try.” All one needs to do is to let go and allow the process to unfold!

It’s truly meditation 🧘 done for you, and it’s based on over 30 years of research in brain entrainment and neuroloplasticity!

Your health matters, and so does your brain health! With BrainTap the process is made easy!

Brain entrainment is next level for real nervous system regulation, improved cognitive function and for reaching the alpha and theta states. These are the states most known for deep meditation, healing, improved creativity and expanded consciousness.

There’s programs for everything from quiting smoking to public speaking, sports performance,  weight loss and much more!

As the founder Dr. Porter often mentions, “thoughts really are things.” The books you read, the people you hang around, the programs you watch… it all matters. With the BrainTap technology, it’s easy to slip out of the “superstress” beta brainwaves and into the relaxed and meditative alpha and theta states!

All you have to do is close your eyes, and allow the  binaural Beats, Isochronic tones, light, sound and guided meditations and suggestions to work with your “ other than conscious mind” and just let it happen!

 It’s truly meditation done for you, and if you’re ready to start rewiring some of those deeply held beliefs, ask me how the BrainTap technology can help!

Understanding the Tissue Biomechanics Behind “Muscle Knots”

This image illustrates the micro-level tissue changes that occur within a muscle affected by trigger points. While often described casually as “muscle knots,” these regions represent localized areas of sustained sarcomere contraction within a muscle fiber. Biomechanically, this creates a focal zone of hypertonicity surrounded by relatively overstretched muscle tissue.

At the cellular level, normal muscle fibers function through coordinated actin-myosin cross-bridge cycling. When contraction and relaxation occur efficiently, tension is evenly distributed across the length of the fiber. In a trigger point, however, excessive acetylcholine release at the motor endplate may lead to persistent contraction of a small cluster of sarcomeres. This sustained shortening forms a taut band within the muscle.

As a result, the contracted segment increases local stiffness, while adjacent fibers become mechanically elongated to compensate. This creates uneven stress distribution along the muscle. The shortened segment experiences increased compressive forces and reduced local blood flow, contributing to ischemia and metabolic stress. Meanwhile, the overstretched regions experience tensile strain, altering the muscle’s overall elastic properties.

From a viscoelastic perspective, muscle tissue behaves both elastically and plastically depending on load and duration. In the presence of a trigger point, the muscle’s ability to absorb and distribute load becomes compromised. The altered stiffness changes how force is transmitted through the myofascial network, potentially affecting joint mechanics and movement efficiency.

In the trapezius, for example, trigger points can disrupt scapular stability by altering resting tone and motor control. Increased passive tension may elevate compressive forces at the cervical spine or shoulder girdle, while pain-related inhibition further disturbs normal neuromuscular recruitment patterns.

Over time, this localized dysfunction can lead to reduced range of motion, altered proprioceptive feedback, and compensatory movement strategies. The problem is not merely pain at a point; it is a biomechanical imbalance within the tissue matrix that affects the entire kinetic chain.

Addressing trigger points requires restoring normal tissue length, improving circulation, and retraining coordinated muscle activation. When tissue biomechanics normalize, load distribution improves, and movement becomes more efficient and less painful.

Healthy tissue distributes force evenly. Dysfunctional tissue concentrates stress. Understanding this principle is key to treating and preventing myofascial pain.
