Structural Integration Therapy
"The fascia forms the largest system in the body as it is the system that touches all other systems."
- James L Oschman PhD
Structural integration therapy is similar to the human therapy known as Rolfing. It uses specific deep and slow techniques that lengthen and soften fascia throughout the body. Structural integration works with gravity to integrate biomechanical balance and can provide long lasting changes. It often results in dramatic improvements and works well in combination with other therapies, such as equine massage or chiropractic.
Structural integration therapy works best when performed in a six session "series".
Benefits include:
-
Reduced pain and tension
-
Improved posture and flexibility
-
Releasing chronic compensation patterns
-
Improved athletic performance + much more!
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold laser, also known as LLLT, is a painless and noninvasive therapy that can help with a variety of conditions. Cold laser therapy has been shown to increase levels of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which is an energy source for cells.
More energy to the cells = better cellular function.
Benefits include:
-
Better quality tissue repair
-
Reduction of scar tissue
-
Drainage of the lymphatic system
-
Increased blood flow
-
Increased production of endorphins (natural pain killers)
Kinesiology Tape
Kinesiology tape provides a decompressive affect to the skin, fascia, muscles and nerves. This decompression creates space for the lymphatic system to flow and relieves pressure on the pain receptors. Kinesiology tape is the perfect blend of support and elasticity. It can be left on for a couple of days to magnify the effects of bodywork.
Benefits include:
-
Reduced pain and tension
-
Joint and muscle support
-
Increased body awareness
-
Injury prevention
-
Reduced edema and drainage of the lymphatic system
