OSTEOPATHIC MANUAL THERAPY
The body is an integrated unit of mind, body, and spirit that possesses self-regulatory mechanisms, having the inherent capacity to defend, repair, and remodel itself. Structure and function are reciprocally interrelated; how we hold ourselves may influence the contents of the container and vice versa.
Every holistic therapy session includes an assessment using the LTAP™ Protocol and orthopedic tests to determine if your body is in a protection pattern, where (e.g. CNS, viscera, neurovascular etc) and how that may be impacting motor control and function. With this method, your body guides the treatment sequence which leads to better results.
Sessions may incorporate a blend of manual and movement therapy depending on what your body needs. My growing toolbox includes massage, neuromuscular therapy, joint mobilization, PNF/PIR, cupping, gua sha, trigger point therapy and Pilates movement, all used with the intention of whole body healing.
