Manual Therapy

Orthopaedic Manual Physical Therapy (OMPT) is a highly-specialized area of physical therapy that treats the specific problem, while also looking at the whole person and their lifestyle. Tools used in OMPT are joint mobilization/ manipulation, soft tissue techniques, dry needling, exercise, stress management tools, breathing exercises, self-treatment techniques, education in posture, ergonomics, and activities.

Fascia/ Connective Tissue Therapy using IASTM

Functioning of the fascial system is part of what makes movement and a healthy body. If you have had continued pain and loss of movement and have not had work done to this system, it is worth coming in for an assessment. The precision of these tools allows for better attention to detail in the fascial system.

Mind Body Connection

Research and books, such as The Body Keeps Score, discuss the influence of the mind and body on one another. We are not counselors, but just by listening and sometimes asking the right questions, you can make connections between your life and what your body may be trying to communicate to you, such as, let me rest more, something is stressing me out, change something. The most important question is do you and your body feel safe?  The second is, do you know where you are and where you're going?
