Ayurvedic treatments require changes in diet, lifestyle, and habits. In general, treatments use several approaches, often more than one at a time. The goals of treatment are to:

• Reduce symptoms. The practitioner may suggest various options, including yoga exercises, stretching, breathing exercises, meditation, conscious mental process using certain techniques -- such as focusing attention or maintaining a specific posture -- to suspend the stream of thoughts and relax the body and mind.

• Reduce worry and increase harmony in the patient's life. The patient may be advised to seek nurturing and peacefulness through yoga, meditation, exercise, or other techniques.
  
  
• Help eliminate both physical and psychological problems. Vital points therapy and/or massage may be used to reduce pain, lessen fatigue, or improve circulation.  Other types of Ayurvedic massage use medicinal oils.

Myofascial Release is a very effective hands-on technique that provides sustained pressure into myofascial restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. The theory of Myofascial Release requires an understanding of the fascial system (or connective tissue). The fascia is a specialized system of the body that has an appearance similar to a spider's web or a sweater.

In the normal healthy state, the fascia is relaxed and wavy in configuration. It has the ability to stretch and move without restriction. When we experience physical trauma, scarring, or inflammation, however, the fascia loses its pliability. It becomes tight, restricted and a source of tension to the rest of the body. Trauma, such as a fall, whiplash, surgery or just habitual poor posture over time and repetitive stress injuries has a cumulative effects. The changes they cause in the fascial system influence comfort and the functioning of our body. The fascia can exert excessive pressure producing pain or restriction of motion. They affect our flexibility and stability, and are a determining factor in our ability to withstand stress and strain.

The use of Myofascial Release allows us to look at each patient as a unique individual. Our one-on-one therapy sessions are hands-on treatments during which our therapists use a multitude of Myofascial Release techniques and movement therapy. We promote independence through education in proper body mechanics and movement, through the enhancement of strength, flexibility, and postural and movement awareness.

Benefits of Myofascial Release & Cranial Sacral Therapy 

• It supports and stabilizes thus enhancing the postural balance of the body.

• It is vitally involved in all aspects of motion and acts as a shock absorber.

• It aids in circulatory economy, especially in venous and lymphatic fluids.

• Fascial change will often precede chronic tissue congestion.

• Such chronic passive congestion creates the formation of fibrous tissue, which then proceeds to increase hydrogen ion concentration of articular peri-articular structures.

• Fascia is a major area of inflammatory processes.

• Fluid and infectious processes often travel along fascia planes.

Reflexology is an excellent antidote to stress and therefore reduces stress related conditions.  Relaxation is a prerequisite for optimum health.

The benefits of Reflexology:

• Stress Reduction

Reflexology helps to normalize all body functions to improve your health naturally. Most illness is the result of improper maintenance of the body. The resulting imbalance creates a buildup of toxins in the system which inhibits the free flow if energy essential to our well being. Reflexology relaxes body, releases an unrestricted flow of vitality and restores balance, encouraging the body's own healing system to take over.
