The goal of Structural Body Work is to Eliminate the causes of pain. Your body has almost an infinite ability to heal itself if it can be facilitated to do so. That is what we do. We work the soft tissue in sophisticated ways to release tension, straighten the structure, align the body, and free it from chronic pain. We also give you, the client, the knowledge of what systems in your life are contributing to your pain. Together we will develop stretching techniques as well as some exercises that will enable your structure to regain and maintain balance and a pain free life. Don't treat the symptom! Treat the cause of the symptom and eliminate the pain from your life.
Each structural bodywork session includes evaluation, soft tissue manipulation, stretching, myofacial release, deep tissue massage, neuromuscular massage, and recommendations for further stretching, and exercises to help keep your body in alignment.
Structural Body Work uses a type of massage called Myofascial Release to lengthen fascia (connective tissue) that is causing restriction around specific muscles and/or groups of muscles. We will also work with the neuromuscular system as well by addressing the trigger-points to reeducate the muscle to it's new length. By doing so, a person’s posture and structure can be properly aligned. With proper posture, chronic areas of pain can be eased. Your therapist will perform a structural observation and then design a session according to your needs. We may also use a variety of other massage techniques and stretching techniques in the session. These sessions also will come with recommendations for stretching and certain exorcizes to promote a better posture and better functioning structure
