Healing does not often occur as a linear process. Many times, the process of restoring a sense of well being and proper functioning for our lives to be enjoyable and productive is more the journey than the destination. Much like snowflakes and ferns, each cell of the body, inherit patterns of self-similarity…we are fractals in nature. When we begin to understand our true nature…profound healing occurs.

We have extensive experience helping patients with acute and chronic pain problems; achieve their goals…to restore balance, fluidity and function of the body, so they can enjoy an active, pain-free life!

Myofascial Release is a highly effective treatment approach, which recognizes the fascia, or connective tissue as a three-dimensional web, connecting and infusing all other tissues of the body. Fascia, in its healthy state is very strong, yet flexible and is housed in a fluid-like matrix, or ground substance.

Restrictions in this tissue are caused by trauma, postural imbalances, dysfunctional and/or repetitive movement patterns or inflammation, which then create dehydration of the fluid matrix, compression and tremendous tension on the body. Fascial restrictions do not show on any standard tests such as X-rays, CAT scans… but are palpable to the highly skilled therapist.

As the fascial tissue restricts, there is a loss of fluidity and normal function; pain and limited movement follow. Symptoms show up in the body as such things as:

-Back pain
-Neck pain
-Headaches
-Carpal tunnel syndrome
-TMJ problems
-Pelvic pain
-Scoliosis
-Chronic pain and fatigue
-Fibromyalgia
-Sports and work performance problems
