Massage Therapy
Cranial Sacral Therapy (CST) is a form of light-touch therapy performed over the clothes, used to relieve restrictions in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord), tissues and fascia to facilitate healing and improve function. CST is safe to incorporate with almost all other treatment modalities and can enhance other treatments as it increases circulation locally and systemically. It has been researched for chronic pain, such as neck and back pains, post-surgical dysfunction, PTSD, post-concussion and symptoms associated with these conditions. It incorporates SomatoEmotiona Release for gentle trauma resolution and It helps to release physical, mental, and emotional traumas from the tissues and emergency centers to recalibrate your nervous system! It is also a complementary therapy that releases tension deep in the body to help reduce pain, relieve dysfunction, and improve whole-body health and performance. It helps move the cerebral spinal fluid around the brain and spinal cord, helping to clear toxins, improve alignment and oxygenation of tissues!
Lymphatic Drainage
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a very gentle massage that helps to promote relaxation, immune function and reduce edema in the body. It has also a calming effect to the nervous system due to the repetitive rhythmic sequence. MLD has an analgesic effect so it’s great for helping in pain reduction. No lotion or oils are used in this treatment.
