Techniques & Modalities
These are the integrative tools Laura & Emily may use depending on your session type and needs:
Clinical Kinesiology: An evaluative technique involving muscle testing to determine root cause of muscle firing imbalances.
Men's and Women's Pelvic Health: internal and external myofascial release work of pelvic floor muscles and organs.
Craniosacral Therapy: gentle, non-invasive technique to restore normal position and motion of the skull, spine, and sacrum to restore cerebrospinal fluid flow and balance the central nervous system.
Neural Manipulation: gentle, non-invasive technique focusing on the brain structures, spinal cord and nerves to restore firing and brain function.
Visceral Manipulation: gentle, non-invasive technique that focuses on releasing restrictions of the internal organs and their influence on other associated structures and physiological function.
Myofascial Release: a whole-body, hands-on technique that evaluates and releases restrictions in the fascial system. Fascia is a dense, connective tissue that covers all the tissues of the body (nerves, blood vessels, lymph vessels, bone, organs, muscle) like a spider-web. Tension in the fascia system creates compression of joints, blood vessels, etc. and can cause pain and dysfunction not found on imaging.
SomatoEmotional Release (SER): A therapeutic dialoguing technique that helps release stored energy of specific emotions that have been retained, suppressed or trapped within the body due to physical or emotional trauma.
Lymph Drainage: gentle, non-invasive technique to release restrictions around lymph vessels and nodes to restore proper drainage of the lymph system; especially effective in resolving post-surgical edema.
Subtle Energy Medicine: an approach to enhance bioelectric signaling, cellular repair and regenerative processes, supporting the body’s natural ability to heal.
Integrative Dry Needling: non-pharmacological modality using a solid filament needle inserted into trigger points for improved blood flow, decreased inflammation, decreased nerve sensitivity, muscle relaxation and restored homeostasis. Excellent for acute injuries and chronic pain.
Cupping: a method of creating a vacuum on the patient's skin to dispel stagnation (stagnant blood and lymph), improve blood and lymph flow, decrease pain and inflammation and increase fascial mobility. Great alternative to needling.
Dolphin MPS Neutrostim: applying microcurrent impulses to trigger acupuncture points, sutures or adhered scars; used to restore vagal tone and improve tissue healing at cellular level.
Muscle Energy Technique: this technique uses the patient's own muscle strength to correct and restore normal joint position.
Joint Mobilization: a technique which uses varying degrees of pressure on joints to restore position and decrease pain.
Spinal Manipulation: a technique which combines high velocity, low amplitude motion to restore joint position and decrease pain.
Biomechanical Analysis: analyzing movement patterns of common activities like walking, running, moving from sit to stand, etc.
Movement Training: retraining neuromotor patterns of movement for improved function, decreased pain.
Intuitive Nutrition Consulting (Emily): analyzing eating patterns, identifying foods that may be causing inflammation, re-calibrating diet.
Lifestyle Design (Emily): a hybrid method of analyzing behavioral habits that mirror eating patterns and where the two intersect.
Time Travel (Emily): a method of going forward or backward in your timeline to shift beliefs, mindsets and patterns that no longer serve you to enable taking action in the now.
