Techniques
As a BC trained RMT, there are many techniques that are incorporated into every treatment.
Myofascial ReleaseIf you were to remove all other tissue except fascia from your body, you would have a standing fascia statue of yourself.
Fascia is connective tissue that is wrapped around every structure in your body - from cells to muscle to organs. When fascia "sticks" together, it can cause restrictions resulting in decreased range of motion, digestive issues, poor circulation, compressed nerves - in general added stress to your body. Myofascial Release can help release those restrictions improving mood, movement and posture. |
Craniosacral Therapy
Created by John Upledger, Craniosacral Therapy was developed to help correct the minute movements of the bones by listening to the "flooding" and "draining" of cerebral spinal fluid in the cranium. This movement is called the Craniosacral System that was developed by William Sutherland.
Through light touch to the bones, Craniosacral Therapy can help correct imbalances in the Craniosacral System which in turn can help with muscular imbalances and restrictions in range of motion.

Visceral Manipulation
Digestive issues? Post abdominal Surgery?
Sometimes organs can become "stuck" to each other. This can cause digestive issues, decreased range of motion in limbs, inexplainable emotions, and the feeling of being too "full" too fast.
With Visceral Manipulation, organs can be "let go" from each other and can help with constipation, acid reflux, bloating and restricted breathing.

Swedish Massage
Incorporated into all treatments, swedish massage is used to help relax tight tissues and increase circulation - its referred to as the "classic massage".
Trigger Point Release
Suffering from tension headaches? Radiating pain with an undefined central location?
Referral pain can be relieved by using Trigger Point Release. By applying pressure to the muscle it causes the muscles to relax as a protective mechanism.
