Swelling and edema can happen as a result of impact injuries, surgeries or change in health conditions. We provide massage the deals directly with the swelling by encouraging the body to reabsorb the extra fluid with light rhythmic strokes, compressions and passive range of motion.

Our bodies respond to distress or injuries by building a complicated system of connective tissue called fascia. This fascia is not easily reabsorbed into the body and can become a chronic pain if not dealt with correctly. We work by manipulating the soft tissues to assist in breaking down the fascia to decrease pain and restore lost range of motion. Ask us how this technique is similar to Active Release Technique (ART).

The use of silicone cups helps to break up scar tissue using suction. Silicone cups are safer to use than glass cups and do not require the use of heat.

IASTM is the use of special designed tools to aid in the mobilization of scars and myofascial adhesions. There are several IASTM tools but the most common is the Graston Technique.

Trigger points are painful spots within a band of muscle. They can become irritated by different stressors that we experience in our daily life. These trigger points often present in predictable patterns of pain which allow therapists to assess and locate the specific area being irritated. Manual manipulation, stretching, heat and ice therapies are used to reduce the pain.

Low grade oscillation, distraction and traction for pain relief.

An approach to maximize the effectiveness of a stretch using muscle activation to turn off the muscle that needs to be stretched.
