Injury Treatment
Whether it's a sports injury, whiplash or an on the job injury, when we've been injured it affects every aspect of our daily lives. My goal is to develop a plan with clients to steadily work towards returning them to a pre-injury state. I offer focused treatments that address the area of injury, as well as surrounding structures which influence both the strain and function of the injury.
I'm concerned about how clients are sleeping, how their work is impacted, and how they're coping with the frustration of losing some of their abilities. I want to make the maximum amount of change possible, without being so aggressive as to cause more damage. The techniques and modalities I use are an eclectic mix of deep tissue, myo-fascial release, circulation strokes, lymphatic drainage, and trigger point therapy. I blend these tools with a thorough understanding of the anatomy and movement to aid my clients.
As well as suggesting stretches, hydrotherapy, self-massage and other forms of self-care, I encourage my clients to connect with other avenues of support such as physical therapists, movement coaches, gentle exercise programs, etc. to maximize their recovery.
