​

Johns Barnes Myofascial Release​

​

Visceral Manipulation​

• The use of gentle manual techniques to the areas surrounding the organs to free up fascial restrictions, increase blood flow and improve their function. A powerful tool for IBS, UC, gall bladder, liver or stomach dysfunction, Endometriosis, and many other muskuloskeleteal issues. Our bodies know we can survive without a knee or ankle, but we can't survive without our liver! So if the liver or other organs are restricted, your body will often twist and turn your limbs to make sure your organs can function as they need to.

​

Craniosacral Therapy

• A subtle but powerful and deeply relaxing type of massage centered around freeing up the cranial bones, sacrum, and the spinal cord in between. It can have powerful effects throughout the body and brain. Common conditions treated include ADHD, autism, dysautonomia, cervical instability, sacral pain, migraines and headaches, and many more. I have received training from the Upledger Institute as well as John Barnes. 

 

Microcurrent Point Stimulation​

• The Dolphin MPS is a powerful modality that delivers current at very high frequencies and is relatively pain-free. It can help with scar tissue release, TMJ, fibromyalgia, dysautonomia, low back pain, and more.

• It can also be used as a vagal nerve stimulation device, powerful enough it was approved for acute and post-COVID relief in Canada.  It helps reset the autonomic nervous system for those stuck in high stress, sympathetic overdrive, or those suffering with chronic fatigue. ​​

​

Trauma-Informed Practitioner​​

• I also integrate concepts from Peter Levine's somatic experiencing, myofascial release, targeted mindfulness exercises and left/right brain integration to help one to reassociate with their body after trauma, and free traumatic energy stored in the tissues.​

​

Trigger point Dry Needling​

• The use of small acupuncture needles to directly penetrate and release tense points in muscles. I use it in conjunction with Microcurrent Point Stimulation (see above) for more effective and lasting results. 

​

Mindfulness & Meditation Training​

• I have studied various Eastern & Western meditation techniques and the physiology behind them. I believe teaching patients to integrate these techniques into massage and exercise leads to more permanent , complete and impactful changes

​

Cupping​

• Uses silicone cups to create a vacuum around dysfunctional tissuse, increasing blood flow and freeing up fascial restrictions to decrease pain and improve function. ​

​

Kinisiology Taping​

• This tape can help increase blood flow, decrease swelling, promote postural realignment and decrease pain. 

​

Nutrition Counseling

• The gut is known as the 'final frontier' of medicine and controls much of the body's immune and hormone systems. I have advanced education in nutrition protocols for inflammation, autoimmune disease, gastroparesis, ehlers-danlos syndrome, interstitial cystitis, mast cell activation syndrome, and bladder dysfunction. 

​

Custom Orthotics Casting​

• Our feet are our foundation!  I have advanced training using plaster casts to custom orthotics for a wide variety of patients. I then take functional measurements of how the foot moves in standing, walking or running and use these measurements in conjunction with the mold to create an orthotic that facilitates greater symmetry in movement and gets you back to the activities you love!

• Affordable and guaranteed to last a lifetime
