Trigger Point Therapy

Working with the Fascia (connective tissue), we seek to increase the range of motion and feeling of freedom in the body.

A trigger Point is a hyper-sensitive and dysfunctional area in the muscle/fascia.

Trigger points can cause referred pain further in the body, as well as cause shortness of the structure, which can compress nerve and blood supply and cause other problems through compensation.

Therapeutically, we find the precise points of dysfunction, and release them using various techniques.

Yoga / movement

As part of the session, we gently move all the joints in all the directions possible. As we find the precise directionality of the movement where it is stuck, we are able to hone in. We find the precise muscle fibers that are locked. We use a precise technique to allow them to gently let go and participate in the movement.

Trauma can store in the body as stagnation. Movement is health. we move the joints, explore what fibers don’t participate, nd then encourage individuation among the different fibers that make the muscle and fascia. Thus we bring back blood supply and the brain to incorporate the whole body in a new way.

Breath, Qi and Meditation

These are the resources that sustain our optimal well-being. We cultivate deep breath to oxygenate the blood and help the flow of please take place. The Qi is the mysterious life force energy that enlivens us and is the source of true health. We attune to a deep, meditative state to promote healing on the levels of the Body, the Mind, and the spirit.

Sound healing

Using crystal sound bowls, Tibetan bowls, tuning forks, and other instruments, we amplify and deepen the massage experience with a “sound bath” of healing tones.

Infra-red Sauna is also available before the session to warm up the muscles and prepare for deep bodywork, as well as support body’s detoxification.
