Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT) utilizes structural assessment and structural corrections, using Muscle Energy Techniques (METS), to create balance and symmetry for the body. These corrections provide a stable foundation for effective work on specific issues. NMT addresses issues ranging from migraines, frozen shoulder, sciatica, and also includes traumatic brain injuries. It is also effective in treating those who have been in motor vehicle accidents, or have had some kind of injury, and need help with recovery and rehabilitation. Aside from treating specific issues, NMT assists those who want to maintain structural integrity, along with lengthened muscles, in order to have continued mobility, and a feeling of overall wellness and balance. The pressure used during NMT is determined by the client, whether light or deep tissue. Either are advantageous for effective NMT treatment, as long as there is no pain. Effective pressure is also essential not only to keep the client from being in pain, but to prevent a pain response from the body .

Like you, I have experienced trauma in my life. Often, this emotional pain presents as chronic distress in my body. As a trauma informed therapist and trauma survivor, I know others are experiencing the same, and need a safe space to process. Through the comprehensive treatment of SNMT, it is my deep desire to provide a comfortable atmosphere to journey through this process. Here, you and I will navigate through the emotion, to facilitate release from the physical pain, irregularity in sleep patterns, and anxiety. We will spend time focusing on structural and muscular integrity that will assist emotional support, while exploring chronic physical issues. The goal is emotional release and healing, that results in relief from chronic physical pain.

Detox Treatment:
Lymphatic Drainage/Hot Stones
This is a full-body treatment, effective for those who need help recovering from illness, surgery, an athletic event, or simply maintaining health.
Lymph drainage targets the filtering system of the body, and Hot Stones act as a deep, penetrating flush. This full body combination treatment aids in releasing toxins as well as relaxing the mind and body. As the body releases these toxins, it is then able to heal and rejuvenate more efficiently.

We can also do spot work or specific work on a certain area of the body. Lymph drainage targets the filtering system of the body, and helps to alleviate or eliminate lymphedema. Lymphedema can occur as a result of surgery that has affected the lymph system in some way, illness that has affected how the body functions, or simply from a job or activity that allows minimal movement, thus causing lymphedema in hands, feet, arms or legs.

Whether a detox treatment or spot work, this treatment can be effective in relieving lymphedema, and releasing toxins.

This treatment can be for specific issues, such as colic, ankyloglossia or tongue-tied, for promoting motor development, as well as for calming due to trauma. I can also teach parents how to perform techniques by themselves as well. I would be honored to treat and teach as I have a Certification as a Therapist and Instructor in Infant Massage.

I consider it pure honor and joy to be able to work on a Momma-To-Be! We will focus on areas of common tightness or discomfort within the different stages of pregnancy. Lymph drainage may be included for swollen ankles, feet, or hands. Also available during treatment is what I like to call “belly rubs”, where I gently work the abdominal muscles and say hello to the little one(s). These treatments are done with much mindfulness, and side-lying to protect Mom and baby, and promote normal blood flow during session.

I also offer birthing classes which include designing a birth plan that you will take to the hospital with you, or have ready for your home birth. You and your partner or birth buddy will also learn relaxation techniques that you can utilize during labor. Finally, we will discuss options for pain management, both holistic and pharmaceutical.
