Our treatments are based on function. On your first visit we do a thorough assessment to get to the root cause of your issue. This means we take into account your posture, movement patterns, what is happening internally and your lifestyle as these all often factor into why you are feeling the way that you do. From there we use a multimodal treatment approach to not only target your pain but to help prevent it from happening again.

Our treatments can include soft tissue work (ART, fascial release, trigger point therapy), mobilizations (getting the joints moving), acupuncture (to relax you to the max and promote cellular healing), taping if necessary and exercise therapy.

Our standard treatments are booked for 40 minutes so that we can provide you with the best care in the shortest amount of time. We highly recommend this treatment for the most effective and efficient care. If you prefer a shorter treatment time - no worries! Feel free to book either a soft tissue treatment alone (no acupuncture) or acupuncture alone for the ultimate relax session.

It is important to us that you understand what is going on and feel educated and empowered in the process.

While Reiki does not replace medical treatment, it does work on the principle that the emotional body impacts they physical body. When you experience Reiki, you are experiencing shifts on all levels, and these changes will become noticeable in every aspect of your life. The primary tool in Reiki is Life Force Energy. Every living thing in the Universe contains life force energy. When your life force is low, or if there are any restrictions in its flow, your energies are not in balance and you are more vulnerable to illness. When your life force is high and flowing freely, you are more in alignment and less likely to suffer from illness.
