Myokinesthetic System
First 3 Sessions $120 | Each session $50
MyoKinesthetic system is a fast and easy technique suitable for just about everyone and has been enormously successful in helping to relieve chronic and acute symptoms. The goal of the MyoKinesthetic system is to impact the nervous system through active and passive soft tissue manipulation.
How and why are we trying to impact the nervous system? When the body experiences a muscular, or skeletal impact, the nerves send a signal to the brain to compensate for any injured area creating an abnormal muscle memory for the area. The MyoKinesthetic System was developed to clear the abnormal memory of a particular muscle (group) and "re-educate the muscles on a neurological level to accelerate the healing process." (Read Article) This is done by treating all the muscles along a particular nerve pathway and sending a message to the brain that there has been a change.
If you have been experiencing chronic or acute pain this is a good one to try.
Myokinesthetic sessions are applied to specific areas believed to be the original source of muscular or skeletal impact. With this information, we work with all the muscles associated with that particular nerve pathway to effect change. Many people feel a change within their first 3 sessions.
Sessions do not require the client to disrobe. We work within each client's comfort zone and range of motion to impact change. Session last up to 20 minutes, so client's do not need to take a lot of time out of their day to experience a positive change. Since change in chronic conditions can take time, we prefer to schedule first time clients for 3 sessions during the first week to week and a half. Contact us to see if Myokinesthetic System may be right for you.
Collard Method
Each Session (approx. 1 hr) - $150
These are not ordinary bodywork sessions. The Collard Method of Intuitive Bodywork is unique. It connects how we think and how we feel with how the body reactions. Practitioners are trained to combine the use of intuition and body language in helping clients identify emotional and mental patterns, and self-imposed limitations that will help achieve lasting release from correlating physical conditions in the body.
Some may find the actual bodywork style is similar in a number of ways to a variety of bodywork modalities, but it doesn't end there. It's based on the premise that emotions are held in our bodies and that in order to release certain dis-ease in our bodies, we need to address not only the physical but also the emotional and/or mental to create lasting change.
The source of our mental and emotional patterns are often rooted in childhood experiences and can go as far back as our birth (also called 'birth script'). Consider the pattern of these experiences as the programming that runs in the background of our daily lives. Through our early years, we develop familiarity with certain experiences (whether we considered them good or bad) and these are the patterns that we learn to trust. We use them to respond to anything new or unfamiliar in our lives. Delving into these early experiences gives us a broader sense of how our core beliefs were developed; how we came to trust them as the familiar, safe, guiding principles of our consciousness and our life; and how we may be expressing these core beliefs and holding them in our physical bodies.
With the help of a Practitioner, an Intuitive Bodywork session gives clients the opportunity to identify limiting patterns of their history. As we come to recognize the role of these patterns in our lives and how it manifests in our bodies, we can begin to respond to our environment rather than reacting out of habit, or programming and discover more lasting change in our physical bodies.
Energy Balancing
30 min. - $45
Energy comes in many forms and energy is everywhere. Energy transfers are happening at every moment. We are receiving and giving energy all the time, to each other, to plants, animals and inanimate objects. There is a constant flow of energy throughout the Universe, or there would not be life at all. So, how can this help you? As a form of bodywork, with focus and intention, dedicated energy work can have very soothing, healing and relaxing results.
Although energy work can be done at all distances, it's nice to be in the same room as your practitioner. Add a healing energy session to a massage. You might not know how to explain it, but you'll definitely be able to feel the results.
