Services
Pelvic Therapy
Our pelvic therapy addresses chronic pain, incontinence, and pelvic floor dysfunction through manual techniques and personalized care. We specialize in conditions like endometriosis and interstitial cystitis, focusing on root causes rather than symptoms. Patients experience improved mobility and reduced pain through our holistic, evidence-based approach.
Visceral Manipulation
Visceral manipulation improves organ mobility and function by releasing fascial restrictions in digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems. This technique alleviates pain from adhesions and scar tissue, particularly for endometriosis and post-surgical patients. Our therapists combine visceral work with pelvic therapy for comprehensive results.
Lymphatic Therapy
Lymphatic therapy reduces swelling and supports immune function by enhancing lymph fluid circulation. Certified therapists use gentle manual techniques to address post-surgical swelling, endometriosis-related congestion, and systemic inflammation. This therapy complements pelvic and visceral treatments for chronic pain management.
Sound Lounge
The inHarmony Sound Lounge uses healing frequencies and tactile vibrations to induce deep relaxation and reduce stress. Patients experience cellular massage through immersive sound, improving sleep, focus, and pain management. Sessions last 22-66 minutes with pricing based on duration.
Pregnancy Care
Our prenatal therapy addresses pelvic pain, round ligament strain, and postural changes during pregnancy. We prepare patients for labor with pelvic floor training and postpartum recovery plans. Specialized care includes diastasis recti screening and C-section scar mobilization for comprehensive maternal wellness.
