Modalities

Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) – I have been trained to practice the Vodder technique of MLD. This modality is not “massage”, but rather a manual touch technique characterized by light pressure rhythmic strokes. Full body MLD provides your lymphatic system with a tune up, encouraging stagnant lymph to flow towards regional lymph nodes for processing. Great for those with fibromyalgia, long covid, or as part of recovery after illness. *MLD is safe for most individuals, but contraindications do exist. It is imperative to disclose any and all prior surgeries within the last year, as well as chronic health conditions.

Post Surgical MLD – This is the Vodder technique of MLD designed specifically to work with post operative patients. MLD following surgery helps to remove cellular waste, reduce swelling, improve healing outcomes, reduce pain, and is deeply relaxing to receive. *Telephone consults are required prior to your first post-op session.

Intraoral – This specific modality is used for individuals who have pain in the jaw, neck, face, or head. It is particularly potent for individuals that clench or grind their teeth, have lengthy dental procedures, and those that have frequent headaches or migraines. Intraoral sessions include detailed neck, ear, and scalp work, as well as work inside the mouth.

Therapeutic Bodywork – Different techniques are used during a single session, dependent on the needs of the individual. Bodywork techniques include myofascial release, trigger point, pin & stretch, stretching, and more. Pressure can range from medium to deep. This style is used to address imbalances, improve tissue tone & pain, and increase mobility. *All bodywork sessions include cupping and/or scraping.

Bodywork & Relax – My most popular treatment. This includes the best of both worlds, bodywork only where it’s indicated and relax where it’s not. This modality may or may not include use of cupping or scraping. *Use of tools is at therapist discretion. If you absolutely want cupping, please book a Therapeutic Bodywork session.
