Chronic Pain is Unnatural
If you are in pain or have limited range of motion, you want something that works fast and lasts.
Myofascia Release, is a corrective, effective and lasting way of treating chronic pain. After sessions, clients often say, "This is the only thing that has helped." That always makes me smile.
Recently, a woman started weeping when she was able to feel and wiggle her pinky toe for the first time in many years. That lit me up like a Christmas tree and made my day. I love my job and I am good at it :)
Unlike typical Massage Therapy, which focuses on muscles, Myofascial Release treatments focus on bones, fascia and movement.
Over the course of more than 5000 sessions, I discovered and developed a way of working with the nervous system and through very small and gentle joint manipulations, I seek out fascial restrictions and ask the nervous system for help in softening the hardened and restricted tissues to allow lost or forgotten movements to return.
Its magical how pain dissipates as fascia softens and stuck parts begin to wake up and move again.
Neck and Shoulders
As odd as it may seem, lengthening fascia in and around the arm pit, greatly helps to mobilize the shoulders and bring relief to neck pain, shoulder pain, headaches thoracic outlet syndrome and even carpal tunnel.
Pelvis
Nearly all SI Joint pain, hip joint pain, or lowback pain is a hip movement problem. The hips are designed to move while walking and problems begin when they don't because when parts of you slow down and stop moving fascia thickens and starts to squeeze on the nerves, which, you feel as pain. When the hips, or any of your joints stop moving all together fascia hardens around nerves and they lose the ability to slide and glide through the hardened fascia and then they send out steady and persistent pain signals as they try to tell you to get some help and get things moving again.
Fortunately, as movement returns to the hips, or any other parts of you that have stopped moving, nerves free up and pain goes away. Then, life gets better.
What to expect
Sessions with me are unique. No two sessions are the same. There is nothing routine. You will experience parts of you let go that you will not even be aware you were holding. At times, it will feel like your arms and legs are getting longer. It's a cool sensation.
Your hip joints will soften and by the end of your session, you will be moving in ways that will surprise you. You will recover movements that were either lost or forgotten at some point in your life and magically, as you move better your pain will get better and better until it goes away.
By the time you leave, you will be a different person. Pain will be way down and you will be feeling and moving better than you have in a while. Perhaps a long while.
More movement, less pain, revitalized. It's like that.
The Rolf 10 Series
Ida Rolf created an entire manual therapy system utilizing myofascial release techniques to change fascia and improve a persons overall structural alignment and eliminate or greatly reduce all kinds of chronic pain while greatly increasing joint mobility, muscle elasticity, better balance, better breath, increased energy and an overall sense of being more embodied and alive.
She called it Structural Integration, but it became widely known as Rolfing©. Going through a 10 series is like overhauling your whole body, mind and spirit. For many people it is a profound and life changing experience.
If you are feeling stuck in life, and are feeling like your body needs an overhaul, The Rolf 10 series is a profound and powerful way to make changes in your life.
