Relief from pain or stiffness arising from injuries, accidents, or long-term structural alignment issues. Most treatments are performed while you are fully clothed. I work to try regain mobility, stability, and pain-free movement. I use a technique called Myofascial Balancing. I do not work like you would typically find at a spa with "smooshing-type" or gliding strokes with a massage oil.
