Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, light touch approach that releases tensions deep in the body. CST enhances the function of the central nervous system and is an effective treatment for numerous medical problems associated with stress, trauma, and physical pain. By complimenting the body’s natural healing process, CST can be used as preventative health measure. Additional benefits include: a greater sense of well-being, deep relaxation, and improved ability to focus. I am trained in both Upledger (mechanical) and Biodynamic craniosacral therapy. CST is typically performed with the client completely clothed. Learn more
Myofascial Release (MFR) is a form of manual theapy that applies sustained pressure and mobilization to connective tissue (fascia) restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. MFR is a comprehensive mind/body approach with a wide range of pressures, ranging from deep soft tissue mobilization/massage to very light touch. Learn more
Energy Kinesiology is a comprehensive, holistic system that assesses and balances the energy of the body. In Chinese Medicine this energy is called Chi. Kinesiology uses muscle testing, as a form of biofeedback to assess the flow of energy (Chi) through the acupressure meridians, and the various body systems. Once an imbalance is identified, balancing techniques that are specific for the individual, are used to restore balance.
Kinesiology draws upon many disciplines including: Chinese medicine, anatomy, physiology, Neurolinguistic programming (NLP), and advanced neurology. It is a blend of Eastern and Western methodology. Kinesiology works in the wellness paradigm and does not treat the symptoms or signs of named diseases or diagnosis. Instead, Kinesiologists look at the whole person to assess and balance the entire being.
If there is an imbalance in the physical, mental, or spiritual aspects of a person, it can lead to energy being blocked or misdirected. This results in a "short circuit" creating a problem in the body's "bio-computer", which can manifest into various symptoms and dysfunction. Acupressure massage, light touch and other simple correction techniques are used to restore muscle balance. Kinesiology is an efficient, safe, non-invasive way to achieve goals as well as restore optimal health and balance.
