Hot Stone Massage

Using Swedish techniques, clients are relieved of some of the discomforts of childbearing. In a sidelying or semi-reclined position, a variety of gentle approaches are used to address specific issues like headaches, back pain or sciatica.

Sports Massage, Pre & Post Event
Whether preparing to compete or dealing with delayed onset soreness (DOS) afterwards, bodywork can be a critical component of your training program. Stretches are used to keep athletes limber and help avoid injury. A faster paced session designed to stimulate and energize is utilized for pre-event. Post-event involves techniques to assist with muscle recovery and reduce edema or pain. By flushing out muscle contraction byproducts, DOS can be avoided and you can get back to the competition.

Structural Bodywork
Sessions begin with a postural assessment that includes how you stand, sit, walk and move; range of motion is tested. Any specific complaint is traced back to possible structural causes, either along myofascial lines or that may follow trigger point referral patterns. Using deep tissue and myofasical release techniques as well as neuromuscular, the client is brought back into balance. Light weights are used to strengthen weak muscles found during resistive tests; stretches are done for contracted muscles that may be pulling joints out of line and causing pain. A treatment plan is designed to address the structural causes of pain, increase range of motion and help clients to move more efficiently. (With permission from the client, Todd can also work with the client's healthcare team if physical therapists, physiatrists, neurologists, pain specialists or doctors of osteopathy are also involved.)

Feldenkrais Functional Integration

Fantastic for anyone with minor aches and pains as well as serious neurological problems, Feldenkrais can help those who simply want to move with more grace, freedom and ease. Can't lift your arms beyond your shoulders or bend your neck comfortably? Have hip replacement surgery, scoliosis or recovering from a stroke? A single session will recharge communication between your brain, muscles and skeletal configuration; multiple sessions can be transformative in the way you move and feel about your body changing motor-spatial responses. Holistic practices worldwide use this internationally renowned method-particularly in Europe, Israel, and Australia.
