Services
CranioSacral Therapy
This gentle manual therapy releases tension in the central nervous system through light touch techniques. It addresses migraines, TMJ pain, and stress-related conditions by restoring proper fluid movement around the brain and spinal cord. Sessions include comprehensive evaluation and tailored treatment sequences to improve neurological function and reduce chronic pain symptoms.
Cold Laser Therapy
Low-level light therapy accelerates tissue repair while reducing inflammation and pain. This non-invasive treatment stimulates cellular energy production to treat conditions like arthritis, neuropathy, and sports injuries. Each session targets specific areas with calibrated wavelengths to enhance healing processes at the cellular level without requiring medication or surgery.
Fascial Counterstrain
Specialized manual technique addresses fascial restrictions causing nerve pain and musculoskeletal issues. The treatment involves precise positioning to release tissue strain patterns, effectively treating sciatica, sinus problems, and chronic tightness through gentle, sustained holds that reset muscle memory.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
Pressurized oxygen chamber treatment enhances cellular healing for neurological and inflammatory conditions. This therapy increases oxygen delivery to tissues, supporting recovery from chronic fatigue, Lyme disease, and cognitive impairments. Sessions involve controlled atmospheric pressure to maximize oxygen absorption and stimulate regenerative processes throughout the body.
Jin Shin Jyutsu
Ancient Japanese energy balancing technique that harmonizes bodily systems through strategic touch points. This non-invasive therapy addresses emotional stress and physical pain by restoring energy flow along meridian pathways. Sessions incorporate pulse diagnosis to identify specific energy imbalances and apply customized hand positions for systemic regulation.
