Acupuncture originated in China over 3,000 years ago and
is presently used as a primary health care system
throughout the world. It is a method of balancing and
building the body's life force or energy known as "qi."
Traditional Chinese medicine views disease as the result
of an imbalance or blockage in the body's natural energy
flow. Such imbalance manifests in physical, emotional
and psychosomatic stress-related disorders. Very thin,
sterile, stainless steel needles are inserted into
specific points along energy pathways, called meridians,
in order to disperse the blockage and mobilize the
body's natural immune response. The World Health
Organization says acupuncture can be beneficial in many
medical conditions ranging from neurological and
gastrointestinal to mental and emotional ones.
Hendrickson Method of Orthopedic Massage and Manual
Therapy This advanced system of orthopedic therapy
brings together a dynamic combination of massage,
mobilization, and neuromuscular re-education,
synthesized with Eastern energy practices. Clients
receive a soothing session that provides pain-relief and
functional rehabilitation. Precise and extremely
effective, the Hendrickson Method is a suitable therapy
for most orthopedic conditions including low back pain,
whiplash, and rotator cuff injuries. This exceptional
system of functional rehabilitation uses techniques that
stimulate the synthesis of new cells, re-hydrates
cartilage, and realigns soft tissue. At its core is a
one-of-a-kind stroke called wave mobilization®, so named
because its gentle rocking motion mimics ocean waves.
Integrative Massage draws from a multitude of
therapeutic modalities based on the needs specific to
the individual. Swedish massage is used to relax and
restore circulation to muscles and nerves both before
and after vigorous deep tissue manipulation, deep tissue
release, and acupressure. Myofasical techniques bring
the system of connective tissue into harmony, allowing
the practitioner to get in deeply, yet gently. Energetic
work is used to restore balance between the emotional
body, Chakra system, and endocrine centers. An
Integrative Massage allows the client to stay deeply
relaxed and journey inward to experience a deep, whole
body release.
Ortho-Bionomy is an osteopathic-based form of
bodywork that helps people to break the cycle of pain,
without causing pain. It is very effective in recovery
from injuries, surgery and stress. This is accomplished
by reducing muscle tension, soothing the joints,
increasing flexibility and range of movement, improving
circulation and relaxing the entire body. Postural work
and gentle movement exercises further enhance their
neuro-muscular reeducation process and empower the
individual to interact with their own internal
communication process to gently restore balance.
Muscle Activation Technique (MAT) is a
comprehensive form of therapeutic bodywork that utilizes
a unique system of muscle therapy and range of motion
analysis to restore the body’s alignment, ability to
move without pain, and enhance performance of everything
from the simple tasks of daily living to reaching
optimal athletic performance. Practitioners of this
technique view muscle tightness as a form of protection
for the body, and focus on activating weak or inhibited
muscles which create imbalances that cause other muscles
to tighten up in order to help stabilize and protect
associated joints and vital structures. MAT is used to
get to the root of pain or injury and is a fantastic
treatment to restore normal body alignment,
biomechanics, and mobility, thereby, decreasing pain and
reducing the risk of injury.
Swedish Massage The classic form people usually
think of when they say the word "massage". There are
five basic strokes all used to enhance circulation
toward the heart. Vigorous manipulation of the soft
tissue in the form of broad general strokes is combined
with specific work on problem areas to enhance flow of
blood and lymph, relax tense muscles, and energize the
body.
Tui Na is an ancient form of Chinese therapeutic
deep-tissue bodywork. It is very effective in treating
joint pain, sciatica, muscle spasms, and pain in the
back, neck and shoulders. It also helps chronic
conditions such as insomnia, constipation, headaches
(including migraines); and the tension associated with
stress.
Tui Na methods include the use of hand and arm
techniques to massage the muscles and tendons of the
body, stimulation of acupressure points to directly
affect the flow of Chi energy and manipulation
techniques to realign the musculo-skeletal and
ligamentous relationships.
In addition to Tui Na working directly with the muscles,
bones and joints of the body, it also works with
balancing the energy of the body at a deeper level
thereby contributing to increased health, energy and
overall well being.
