Did you know that myofascial cupping may also be applied to the abdomen? From aiding in digestion to clearing colon blockages or constipation, cupping can be help support bowel function.

Although a softer cup with gentler suction is applied to the sensitive stomach area, you should always let your practitioner know if something feels uncomfortable during treatment.

A study looked at the benefits of cupping on functional constipation in children aged four to 18, and it was found to be an effective laxative therapy when applied to the abdominal wall.

Come see me and give it a try!

Have you ever had craniosacral therapy (CST) treatment?

Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, non-invasive practice where practitioners use their hands to release built-up tensions within the body, associated with the craniosacral system (the liquids and membranes that support the functionality of the brain and spinal cord). The goal is to alter the optimal flow of the cerebrospinal fluid.

Many clients seek CST to reduce chronic pain, improve sleep, reduce anxiety, or address symptoms of concussion.

Today is World Stroke Day , which raises awareness of the severity of strokes, and highlights the treatments and supports available for people who have had a stroke. Massage therapy is a great option to help people after a stroke to reduce their pain and improve their physical function.

Massage and Manual Osteopathy... what's the difference?

Massage focuses on the musculoskeletal system, releasing tension in muscles and helping the body relax.

Manual Osteopathy takes it further. We look at the whole body: muscles, joints, bones, fascia, fluids, even organ systems, using gentle, hands-on techniques to find and treat the root cause of imbalances.

Both are valuable. But Manual Osteopathy gives you a wider range of tools to help clients move better, feel better, and stay well longer.

Because sometimes, it’s not just the muscle that needs attention, it’s the bigger picture.

The mind and body are not separate. What affects one, affects the other.

Yes!!!!

A lot of my clients also receive massage from time to time. A word to the wise... Deep tissue massage is DEEP massage... not HARD massage. True deep tissue doesn't use more pressure, they use SLOW pressure -- coaxing the body to ALLOW you to go deeper without more pressure.
