We first show you an educational video on the anatomy & physiology of your body and how it responds to stress, pain & dysfunction, and then shows you how Neuromuscular therapy can help facilitate healing of stressed and injured tissues!

Our techniques are more advanced than many of the "Fluff & Buff" spa massage therapists! We use an intuitive and scientifically based mix of Neuromuscular therapy, Myofascial Release Therapy, Facilitated Stretching, Body Mobilization, Swedish Massage Techniques, Reflexology and Shiatsu/Acupressure & Biomechanic Retraining Our style is a scientifically based problem solving session. Elsewhere, you may just get a generic Fluff and Buff like they give every body!

 Our services are very comprehensive. We understand the importance for proper nutrition and self-care to assist in making the therapeutic massage more effective for the body to heal/balance itself. This is why we might share how to improve overall health with certain foods or food-based supplements and homecare exercises.

Body Awareness Therapy (B.A.T.) is a 2-hour program that introduces you to our way of EFFECTIVE MANUAL MUSCLE THERAPY! Through B.A.T. We don't just give you a rub down like many "massage therapy services", we are your ACTIVE PARTNER in introducing you to your own body like you've never known it before! This program is designed to specifically focus the therapy to systems & areas of the body commonly affected by stress, tension & chronic pain!




 

Releasing Tension In Temporalis MuscleTMJ Therapy
(Temporo-Mandibular Joint)

(2-hour)
TMJ is a disorder of the jaw joint and related structures where the ball (condyle), socket (fossa), and cushioning disk (meniscus) of the joint are damaged or misaligned (Note 1) . Over time, the meniscus becomes increasingly compressed and torn, allowing the bony structures of the ball and socket to deteriorate at an accelerating rate due to the grinding wear on the joint and the loss of cushioning effect of the meniscus. This grinding (crepitus) and concurrent pressure on the capsular ligament surrounding the joint can cause head pain, and may create difficulty in opening or closing of the mouth. The body attempts to realign the joint using the musculature in the face, jaw and neck. As these muscles become fatigued, additional muscles in the shoulders and back attempt to help this condition, then become stressed themselves. This can cause symptoms of generalized muscle pain and weakness that are diagnosed as Myofascial Pain Dysfunction Syndrome (Fibromyalgia) (Note 2) and/or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

Our job is to take an assessment of your whole posture, help you release the specific muscles that are contributing, whether they are in the jaw, the neck or the hips. Then to educate you how to change your biomechanical habits that are contributing to the dysfunction, stress, pain or damage to surrounding structures like teeth or digestive functions. About a half hour of your session will be watching a video all about a Neuromuscular Therapist's perspective of TMJ and how we can help you in ways that your dentist may or may not be aware of.

Carpal Tunnel Therapy
Carpal Tunnel Therapy
(2 hours)

We will not only address the effects of Carpal Tunnel, but we will also address other conditions that have similar symptoms, as sometimes Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is mis-diagnosed. We cannot diagnose, we are merely covering any or all possibilities, whether or not your physician gave you specific diagnosis of "CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME".

Our goal is to find THE CAUSE, and help correct it best way we can, so we may work on muscles that may not seem to make sense, but they are relevent to this type of problem. We use specific techniques, as well as educate you in your role of your own healthcare and maintenance homecare responsibilities so that we can maximize the benefits of the bodywork and minimize the return of the problem. We will have you watch a video about Carpal Tunnel Syndrome so you understand our intentions with our bodywork. Sometimes, we may work on areas of the body that might not seem logical, but make all the sense in the world according to Neurological & physiological laws.

Before you get surgery, or physical therapy, please consider our services first. You'll be glad you did! [Click here] to schedule online. Otherwise please call us.

coremassagebropic.JPGCORE Muscle Therapy (2 hours)

The Core Muscle Therapy targets the core of the body from the joints,
muscles, connective tissues, and even the organs in the core area. The organs can be responsible for dysfunction in other parts of the body if they are "glued" to other structures and cannot move and function properly, and they can even put pressure on certain muscles to prevent them from working. They can have trigger points just like muscles and cause referred pain to other parts of the body.
