Our treatments are customized based on what you share at intake; be sure to tell us what you are hoping to get out of your session. Some of the techniques we have in our toolbox include:
Massage
Massage helps to maintain a nurturing relationship with your body. With classic Swedish strokes we reduce stress, treat general aches and pains, and help you recover from strenuous workouts. Massage can also help you repair injuries like tendonitis or whiplash. Practitioners: Bevin and Jennifer
Structural Integration
Structural Integration and Rolf Movement (SI) provide a chance to methodically explore where the relationship of body and self might be stuck. SI addresses patterns of strain and imbalance through the connective tissue of the body, seeking lift where there is drag and adaptability over fixation. If you have chronic pain or discomfort, this series-based inquiry may give you better insight into how to care for yourself as a physical being in the pull of Earth’s gravity. Practitioners: Bevin
Somatic Experiencing
Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a process of listening to our physiological cues and honoring the organic intelligence of the body. Some chronic tension and pain won’t respond to simple tissue manipulation. By attending to the nervous system, SE can offer relief for physical and emotional trauma, subtle and explicit wounds. It is both a standalone and complementary technique, offering healing on its own or blended with other forms of bodywork. Practitioners: Bevin
Manual Lymphatic Drainage
Using the Vodder Technique, manual soft tissue mobilization is applied to affected areas of the body along the lymphatic drainage pathways. Designed to open the lymph vessels for the purpose of draining excess fluid due to swelling (edema), this method uses a light touch (just enough to stretch the skin) and no emollient. Most effective as a series, MLD treatments help reduce traumatic and post-surgical edema (swelling) and can provide relief of symptoms from migraine headaches, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD), stress, fatigue, and more. MLD is a very soothing technique that also induces general relaxation. Practitioners: Jennifer
