Did you know that fascia has a tensile strength of 2,000 psi compared to muscles' 300 to 400 psi? This explains why, after you receive bodywork, you often end up going back for the same issues. Fascia acts as cushion, a shock absorber, and if the fascia is restricted, adhered or distorted, the muscles will be bound and unable to fully function. [As in full extension and flexion, stiffness, pulling, torquing, impairments].
Studying Fasciology at the Fascia Advancement Academy and using Ashley Black's fascial release protocols and specially designed tools have been a profound discovery in my personal healing journey, and I am pleased, ecstatic actually, to be using these same protocols and tools for my clients.
Using fascial release tools allows me to release fascia adhesions and restrictions in a gentle layer-by-layer approach so the fascia is more properly aligned, restoring integrity to the tissues and organs. One of my clients says she feels like she is "aging backwards" after receiving a session.
This modality helps your body recover from injuries, whether ancient or recent, and restores range of motion through the release of restrictive patterns throughout the body.
*My recommendation is to book a two-hour session for your initial session where I will address your entire first layer of fascia to begin a full body release. I am highly recommending this - this modality is different than massage.

Lymphatic Drainage Massage (LDM) is a type of gentle massage which is intended to encourage the natural drainage of the lymph, which carries waste products away from the tissues back toward the heart.
Massage oil or cream is used with smooth, gliding strokes. Therapeutic massage uses firm but gentle pressure to promote relaxation, ease muscle tension and create other health benefits. It is a classic massage that will ease your stress and allow you to slip into a calm state of relaxation. Other techniques may be incorporated as appropriate.
Visceral Manipulation (VM) is a gentle manual therapy that aids your body's ability to release restrictions and unhealthy compensations that cause pain and dysfunction. VM does not focus solely on the site of pain or dysfunction, but evaluates the entire body to find the source of the problem. The VM therapist feels for altered or decreased motion within the viscera, as well as restrictive patterns throughout the body and then applies VM techniques.
