Mobilizations and Muscle Energy

The body is made up of a variety of joint types, each designed to move within specific ranges of motion. Optimal movement and overall biomechanics depend on the ability of these joints to move freely within their intended limits. Joint mobilization techniques are used to address restrictions within the joints and their surrounding soft tissues, helping to restore healthy movement patterns.

Muscle energy techniques involve the active engagement of a muscle followed by a controlled stretch. This process supports proper muscle function, improves coordination, and helps reduce excess tension, contributing to balanced movement throughout the body.

Visceral Manipulation

A type of therapy that focuses on internal organ fixation, restrictions, dysfunction and fascial release. Techniques are gentle and non-invasive. Visceral manipulation can be used to treat and manage things such as:

  • Irritable bowel syndrome
  • whiplash
  • fertility and infertility
  • menstrual cycle related issues
  • surgical incisions 
  • hormone imbalance
  • neck and back pain
  • breathing restrictions
  • chronic fatigue
  • digestive issues
  • lymphatic issues 

Cranio-Sacral Therapy

Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, hands-on approach that supports balance within the body by encouraging healthy movement of fluids that travel from the cranium (head) to the sacrum through the dural system. Using refined palpation and very light touch, treatment focuses on releasing tension within the cranial and sacral structures and their associated membranes.

This work is often integrated with other manual osteopathic techniques to help restore balance throughout the body and support the nervous system’s natural ability to regulate and heal.

Cupping

Cupping is a form of alternative therapy that uses vacuum sealed cups to draw blood to the area of suction. This can be beneficial in many ways:

  • reduces pain and inflammation
  • re-circulates old and stagnant blood
  • improve blood flow to the area
  • improves lymphatic flow
