Services
Pelvic Floor Therapy
Pelvic Floor Therapy addresses urinary and fecal incontinence, painful intercourse, and pelvic pain through targeted manual techniques and therapeutic exercises. This treatment reconditions pelvic floor muscles to improve strength, reduce dysfunction, and alleviate pain. Ideal for women experiencing postpartum issues or age-related pelvic floor disorders, our approach integrates holistic assessments to restore muscular and neurological balance.
Matrix Repatterning
Matrix Repatterning corrects biomechanical imbalances by addressing fascial restrictions caused by injuries or chronic strain. Using gentle manual pressure, this technique restores electrical conductivity and structural alignment, alleviating pain and improving mobility. Beneficial for post-concussion syndrome, orthopedic injuries, and lymphatic dysfunction, it promotes systemic healing by targeting the body's interconnected tissue network.
Manual Lymph Drainage
Manual Lymph Drainage enhances lymphatic flow to reduce swelling and detoxify tissues using rhythmic, gentle strokes. This therapy treats lymphedema, lipedema, and inflammatory conditions by stimulating protein reabsorption and immune response. Patients with post-surgical edema or chronic fatigue benefit from improved circulation and reduced inflammation through this non-invasive, soothing technique.
Visceral Manipulation
Visceral Manipulation targets fascial restrictions around organs to resolve postural imbalances and chronic pain. By releasing adhesions from injuries or surgeries, this method restores organ mobility and alleviates referred pain. Effective for digestive disorders, interstitial cystitis, and musculoskeletal strain, it integrates osteopathic principles to harmonize bodily systems.
Teletherapy
Teletherapy provides virtual access to specialized physical therapy for patients unable to visit in person. Through guided assessments and personalized exercise programs, we address pelvic floor dysfunction, lymphatic issues, and musculoskeletal pain remotely. This service ensures continuity of care for patients in underserved areas or those requiring specialist consultation without travel.
