Advanced Bodywork

Structural Integration. 120 minutes. A systematic treatment of the body's myofascial system to unwind regional and body-length strain patterns, restoring it to its natural balance, alignment, length, and ease. This is accomplished by deep, slow, fascial and myofascial manipulation, over a series of ten separate sessions. Each session includes before/after photos, postural/movement assessment and repatterning to help the client develop more functional posture and movement.

Meridian Balancing. 90 minutes. Full-body. Applies traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory and manual pressure (acupressure) to acupuncture points throughout the body. Five 90-minute sessions are required to treat three major meridians and two master channels, preferably scheduled no more than 2-3 weeks apart.

RockTape® is a brand of kinesio tape made of cotton, nylon and acrylic adhesive that helps decrease pain, swelling and fatigue, and distributes physical stress and normalizes muscle tone.
