The purpose of your visit should be to address soft-tissue dysfunction(s) with specific goals like reduced pain/discomfort, reduced stress, improved mobility/flexibility and overall better quality of life. We'll spend time learning about your specific issue(s) and how you may benefit from the treatments provided. This will include discussing elements of your history, experiences, sleep behavior, and other relative topics. Once we have a better understanding of the scope of your symptoms, then we can develop a plan and the steps to achieve it. Some aspects of your first visit may include a postural and mobility assessment, palpations, and muscle flexibility tests. Soft-tissue manipulations, stretching, thermotherapy and multiple modalities may be used depending on your specific issues. Click here for details arriving at the location. 


Neuromuscular Therapy

NMT is a specialized form of manual therapy that focuses on the treatment of trigger points, muscle tension, muscle adhesions, and nerve entrapment to alleviate pain and improve muscle function. Areas of dysfunction are identified and addressed in the neuromuscular system using specific hands-on techniques. The importance of NMT lies in its ability to target specific issues within the neuromuscular system on the cellular level, such as muscle imbalances, nerve entrapments, and fibrous adhesions.


Dynamic Stretch Therapy
Dynamic Stretch Therapy blends guided movement, assisted stretching, and targeted pressure to release tight muscles and improve mobility. Unlike static stretching, DST actively engages your muscles while a therapist supports and moves your body through safe ranges of motion. This approach increases circulation, loosens fascia, and re-educates the nervous system for smoother, more efficient movement. The result is improved flexibility, better posture, reduced tension, and faster recovery — helping your body move and feel its best.


 Muscle knots, scientifically known as myofascial trigger points, are areas of localized muscle tightness and tension. These points can be sensitive or painful when touched and often feel like small, palpable nodules within the muscle tissue. They develop due to various factors, including muscle overuse, trauma, poor posture, stress or a combination of factors. Myofascial trigger points can cause referred pain, meaning the pain is felt in a different area than where the knot is located. They may limit range of motion and contribute to discomfort or pain in surrounding areas. Massage, stretching and physical therapy are often used to alleviate muscle knots by promoting relaxation, improving blood flow and releasing tension in the affected muscles. 


 Fascia is connective tissue that surrounds and supports muscles, bones, organs, and other structures throughout the body. It forms a three-dimensional web that provides structural integrity and helps maintain the shape of the body. Fascia is composed primarily of collagen, elastin, and a gel-like ground substance.

There are 3 primary types of fascia:

1. Superficial: Lies just beneath the skin and contains fat and blood vessels.

2. Deep: Surrounds muscles, bones, and joints, providing a protective and supportive framework.

3. Visceral: Envelops internal organs, helping to suspend and separate them within the body.

Healthy fascia is flexible and allows for smooth movement of muscles and joints. However, trauma, inflammation, or poor posture can cause fascial restrictions, leading to discomfort, pain, and decreased range of motion. Techniques like myofascial release aim to address these restrictions and restore optimal function in the fascial system. 


Muscle adhesions are abnormal sticking or binding of muscle fibers to one another or to surrounding tissues. They can result from injuries, inflammation, or repetitive stress, causing restricted movement and discomfort. Massage, stretching, and physical therapy are common approaches to address muscle adhesions.


 Occassionally you will experience moments of pressure and slight pain. However, this should be the type that "feels good," similar to when you are getting a deep-tissue massage that is working out an area of tension. You're always encouraged to share your feedback and experience which helps create a mostly pain-free, effective and successful treatment!


Clothing is recommended to be removed but never required. You always determine what you will and won't remove, while understanding clothing limits the scope of treatments that can be performed to help achieve your goals. During treatments you are covered by a sheet barrier, with the exception of the areas being treated. Private areas/sexual organs are never exposed or treated, under any circumstances.


Most clients benefit from weekly sessions at first, then shift to biweekly or monthly maintenance, depending on goals and budget.


Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT)

  • Acute Pain or Injury: 1–2 times per week until symptoms improve.
     
  • Chronic Pain / Postural Issues: Every 1–2 weeks to manage symptoms and retrain patterns.
     
  • Maintenance & Prevention: Every 3–4 weeks to keep muscles balanced and prevent flare-ups.
     

NMT often starts more frequent and tapers down as symptoms stabilize.


Dynamic Stretch Therapy (DST)

  • Athletic Performance / Training: 1–2 times per week to keep flexibility and reduce risk of injury.
     
  • Recovery & Mobility: Weekly sessions work well for circulation, posture, and overall movement.
     
  • General Wellness: Every 2–4 weeks for those who want to stay mobile and feel lighter without ongoing tightness.
     

DST is often less “problem-focused” and more about ongoing mobility and performance.


Blended Approach


Many clients benefit from alternating:

  • NMT for pain relief, deep tissue dysfunction, and correcting imbalances.
     
  • DST for movement, flexibility, and functional recovery.
