Services
A Manual Therapy session includes key components - assessment, muscle energy technique, post-isometric relaxation, and transverse friction massage.
Assessment is how Steve will find where your body's structure is limited/stuck and where it may be hypermobile. This will provide the roadmap to bring you back to balance.
Muscle Energy Technique is a means of manually assessing imbalances and distortions in the skeletal system and correcting them, via the soft tissue, using a tiny amount of the patient's own energy (force) applied in a specific direction. Extremely gentle, MET provides dramatic and lasting improvements in flexibility, muscle tension and comfort.
Post-isometric relaxation works with the natural laws of the body. When a muscle has been actively contracted, the nervous system responds with an appropriate level of relaxation when the muscle relaxes.
Transverse friction massage works to break up scar tissue and adhesions that may have formed during an injury or repetitive use injury. Frictions help restore elasticity and increase blood flow to the area being worked. This helps to remove waste products, toxins, and bring in fresh nutrients, blood and oxygen to an area promoting healing.
This is Steve's specialty. Book a session today - you may just be amazed at how different your body feels and moves afterward.
~ 90 minute sessions are recommended for new clients, as well as complex "issues in the tissues," and for folks who simply enjoy a longer session.
~ 60 minute sessions are best for follow up care or for specific needs (e.g., taping, shoulder treatment). Additional Services Onsen Manual Therapy
