The body is a wonderful instrument with many systems that work in harmony and perform millions of functions a day. When working at it's best, there are no symptoms of pain or disease in the body. The body learns to compensate around lesions caused by traumas. After an accumulation of traumas, the body can run out of compensatory ability. When this happens symptoms appear, often far away from the primary problem or lesion. These traumas can be physical, emotional, or mental, and can even begin in utero.

Mind

The mind is often racing because of stresses of everyday life. Or it can be caught in a "fight or flight" pattern from a traumatic event that doesn't "know" the threat is over. Emotional traumas that are too much for an individual at the time, can get stored in the physical body, robbing that area of energy to keep it maintained there. Thought patterns, too, from people of importance to an individual, can get stored in the physical body as well, interfering with the function of the tissues they are stored in.

Soul

The soul is that part of us that is our spirit, our light self, who we Really are. I believe each person has a contract to fulfill while we are on the earth. We often get distracted from this and caught up in the day to day aspects of living and forget to explore Why we are here. But our bodies let us know when we are off track and not honoring ourselves, by pain, angst, and other symptoms of disease.

Craniosacral Therapy

Craniosacral therapy is a light touch modality that works on freeing up the central nervous system which can have far reaching effects throughout the entire body. This nervous system is enclosed in the cranium and spinal cord in the spinal dura down to the tailbone and is bathed by cerebral spinal fluid in a semi-hydraulic fluid system.

Visceral Manipulation

Visceral Manipulation is a gentle hands-on modality that works through the body’s visceral or organ system to locate and free abnormal points of tension throughout the body. Because the body “hugs” a lesion , in essence these “hugs” can be palpated in order to find the areas of restrictions in the body.

Neural Manipulation

Neural Manipulation identifies and releases local nerve restrictions while at the same time examines the effect of these local fixations on the rest of the body, and by accessing this relationship, resolves the more comprehensive (global) dysfunctional patterns.

Lymphatic Drainage

Lymphatic drainage is a holistic approach to promoting a healthy lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is a complex network of vessels and ducts that move fluid throughout the body and is responsible for moving toxins away from healthy cells and carrying germ-fighting materials to cells when they are under attack by viruses.
