I specialize in head, neck & shoulder dysfunction of clients who sit at a desk for the majority of their day. Also therapeutic bodywork for the active/athletic individuals or those with chronic conditions looking for rehabilitation who want to gain rapid recovery and mobility.

IASTM

Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) is a process in which a hand held instrument is used to break down the scar tissue and fascial restrictions in soft tissues (muscles, ligaments, tendons, fascia, and nerves). The instrument is used to deliver a controlled microtrauma to the affected area. The purpose of the microtrauma is to stimulate a local inflammatory response, which initiates reabsorption of excessive scar tissue and facilitates a cascade of healing activities. Adhesions within the soft tissue that may have developed as a result of surgery, immobilization, or repetitive strain, are broken down, allowing the patient to regain function. This technique is highly effective and treatment can be given to precise affected areas or included in Functional Bodywork treatment.
