Therapeutic Massage
Therapeutic massage is a more targeted form of bodywork geared toward the specific needs of the client and can evolve over the course of several sessions. This type of manual therapy focuses on soft-tissue dysfunction and is used to reduce pain, and improve range of motion, body movement and function.
A variety of techniques that will likely be utilized:
- Myofascial Release
- Muscle Energy Technique
- Neuromuscular Techniques
- Trigger Point Therapy
- Cervical Mobilization
- Pelvic Stabilization
- Joint Capsule Release
This type of massage is ideal for those who have chronic pain or injury, have a lifestyle that requires a lot of sitting or repetitive motion, or those in treatment for postural re-alignment. Because of the nature of this approach, sessions are usually structured with a focus on one or two areas of concern; and treatment may require longer sessions. Initially, more frequent sessions may be very helpful.
Pre-Adjustment Therapeutic Massage
This session is designed to improve effectiveness of the chiropractic adjustment for a specific area of pain or dysfunction.
Craniosacral Therapy (CST)
CST is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system - comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. Using a soft touch, practitioners release restrictions in the craniosacral system to improve the functioning of the central nervous system. CST is intended to facilitate the body's ability to self-correct.
By complementing the body's natural healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction, only a few of which include:
- Migraine Headaches
- Chronic Pain
- Concussions and Traumatic Brain Injuries
- Emotional Difficulties
- Connective-Tissue Disorders
- Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome (TMJ)
Rapid Neurofascial Reset
A neurologically based, therapeutic technique that addresses the central nervous systems role in alleviating tension and restrictions within the body. Painful areas are treated by combining precise tension by the therapist with very specific active client movements. It may be uncomfortable during the movement phase of treatment. This occurs as the neurological system is being stimulated to restore normal function and eliminate pain.
Clients choose RAPID because of the 'rapid' response to treatment. Treating
the body at the neurological level stimulates a reprogramming of the tissue.
Tight muscles relax, range of motion is restored, and pain is eliminated.
This helps individuals quickly get back to normal life.
Clients are fully clothed during these sessions.
May be combined with or followed by massage.
