How We'll Get You There

Advanced techniques for effective treatment

A range of advanced techniques may be drawn from to customize each session and address what your body needs most. There is no additional charge for these modalities.

Please Note: Not every modality is used in every session and are selected based on your needs and how your body responds that day. Modalities are always selected with intention and may change from session to session as your needs evolve.

Trigger Point Therapy

Trigger points are areas of tight, contracted muscle fibers that can contribute to pain, restricted movement, weakness, or discomfort in other parts of the body. Gentle, sustained pressure is used to help release these areas and restore healthier muscle function.

How It's Used
  • Identifying potential sources of pain or dysfunction
  • Releasing localized muscle tension
  • Improving posture and movement patterns
Benefits
  • Helps relieve chronic muscle tension and headaches
  • Reduces referred pain from the neck, shoulders, back, or hips
  • Improves range of motion and mobility
  • Supports circulation and tissue health
  • Aids recovery from overuse or strain

Myofascial Decompression

Cupping uses suction to lift and decompress tissues, allowing soft tissues to glide more freely. This improves blood and lymphatic flow, reduces tension, and promotes tissue healing.

How It's Used
  • Often combined with massage or IASTM to optimize results
  • Applied to areas with stiffness, restricted movement, or chronic tension
Benefits
  • Encourages fascial mobility and tissue hydration
  • Reduces pain and stiffness
  • Improves flexibility and ease of movement
  • Supports circulation and lymphatic flow
  • Promotes tissue recovery

IASTM

IASTM (Instrument-Assisted Soft-Tissue Mobilization) uses specialized tools to gently address restricted muscles, fascia, ligaments, and tendons. This technique helps support the body’s natural healing response and can be especially helpful for areas that feel dense, tight, or limited in movement.

How It's Used
  • Addressing adhesions or scar tissue
  • Releasing restricted myofascial tissue
  • Supporting joint and soft tissue mobility
Benefits
  • Supports tissue healing and recovery
  • Reduces persistent or chronic discomfort
  • Improves range of motion
  • Helpful for rehabilitation and overuse-related patterns

Heat
Therapy

Heat therapy uses warmed stones or tools to deliver gentle, consistent warmth to targeted areas. Heat helps relax muscles, increase circulation, and support overall comfort during treatment.

How It's Used
  • Applied as a spot treatment for tense or guarded areas
  • Used alongside massage to encourage relaxation
  • Helpful for stress-related tension or chronic tightness
Benefits
  • Relaxes muscles and reduces tension
  • Improves blood flow
  • Encourages deep relaxation
  • Supports overall wellbeing

Stretch
Therapy

Stretch therapy combines assisted stretching and supportive strengthening to improve flexibility, balance, and movement efficiency. Focus is placed on muscles and joints critical for stability and daily function, including the ankles, knees, hips, shoulders, and neck.

How It's Used
  • Addressing muscular imbalances
  • Stretching overactive muscles while supporting underactive areas
  • Improving movement patterns for daily activities or athletic performance
Benefits
  • Increases flexibility and mobility
  • Supports posture and alignment
  • Reduces injury risk
  • Enhances functional movement and recovery

Ashiatsu
Massage

Ashiatsu is a barefoot massage technique that uses the therapist’s body weight to deliver long, smooth, and consistent strokes. The foot naturally conforms to the body’s contours, allowing for broad, even pressure that many clients find both effective and comfortable.

How It's Used
  • Warming and relaxing larger muscle groups
  • Preparing tissues for more focused bodywork
  • Providing restorative support for chronic or persistent tension
Benefits
  • Deep, consistent pressure delivered comfortably
  • Improves circulation and lymphatic flow
  • Reduces tension and stress
  • Promotes overall relaxation
