The goal of this style of treatment is to restore movement and function to the body. Key Areas included are:
- Bone and joint alignment: discomfort can be the result of a bone or joint coming out of its normal alignment. We use gentle techniques to guide it back to place. Common bone and joint issues are found in the feet, hips, neck, or ribs.
- Soft tissue treatment: soft tissue or "fascial" treatment works at a deep level to treat the whole chain of tissue. Oftentimes pain shows up further from the original source than you'd think. Fascial treatment can unlock chains of tissue and is known to provide immense relief from issues like tennis elbow, TMJ, carpel-tunnel, or knee pain.
- Craniosacral therapy: craniosacral deals with the cranium, the sacrum, and the spinal column. Craniosacral therapy assists restrictions along the dural tube, as well as the nerves which exit the spine. This approach can be helpful for symptoms of insomnia, head aches, stress, spinal cord injuries, or fibromyalgia.
- Visceral treatment: "viscera" means "organs". Visceral treatment includes moving the organs and the connective tissue that surrounds them in order to restore their normal function. Common issues visceral work can assist with are digestive problems, abdominal cramps, IBS, or fertility issues.
