Your session will include:
A Comprehensive Assessment
Lasting results begin by getting to the root of the problem. After hearing about where you hurt, I’ll look at you walking, standing and sitting to get a thorough sense of your body’s tension patterns, and consider the impact of: - Past injuries and health challenges - Recent demands on the body, including exercise practices, work-station issues, the physical demands of parenting, recent “overuse“ stresses, etc.; and - Recent + ongoing life-stress factors that may be contributing to your physical challenges.
Expert Bodywork Care
More than just a set of techniques, a Full-Spectrum Touch session is a kind of improvisational dialogue as I work with you to bring openness and relief to areas of restriction and discomfort, using a synergistic blend of the following elements:
- A Hands-on Fusion of:
- Deep-Tissue Massage
- Craniosacral Therapy
- Myofascial Release - Active and passive stretching and other muscle energy and positional release techniques - Energy work from Chinese acupressure, Reiki and more
- Bodymind Techniques: - Imagery - Yogic Breath Work - Mindfulness-based body awareness and inquiry and, where appropriate, - Body-centered Trauma Healing
- State-of-the-art Professional Tools: - Electric lift table and bodyCushion for maximum comfort and support for more effective treatment. - Moist heat & cold treatment (seasonal)
Support and Counselling/Coaching
The most important ingredient in your healing formula is YOU and the choices you make for your own self-care. I’ll help you expand your sense of those choices through:
- Supportive dialogue, integrating bodymind techniques listed above - Clear explanations of the anatomical basis of your pain and tension patterns - Recommendations of stretches, strengthening exercises and self-care practices and - Referrals, when appropriate, to a vast network of healing arts practitioners.
