Visceral Manipulation
Visceral Manipulation is a technique that works to gently restore proper function, position, and mobility to the internal organs of the body. This is helpful for digestive problems, emotional regulation, and many musculoskeletal conditions that originate in the organs. (This technique requires specific training.)

Trigger Point Therapy
Trigger Point Therapy is a therapeutic technique that focuses on reducing pain/tension and restoring function to muscles that have developed trigger points. Trigger points are points of restricted fascia and energy which develop in muscles. Trigger points reduce muscle strength and have a referred pain when pressed on. Painful spots that hurt only locally are usually spasm or knots. Trigger Point Therapy is the practice of identifying and treating trigger points to reduce pain and restore muscle function. (This technique requires specific training.)

Myo-Fascial Release
Myo-Fascial Release is a technique used to break up and stretch the myo-fascia of the body. Myo-fascia is the word used to describe the muscles and connective tissue as they exist together in the body. Myo-Fascial Release is the most structurally effective style of massage. It is useful for correcting postural imbalances, freeing adhesions and scar tissue, recovering from injuries, and moving stagnant Chi and emotional energy in the body. (This technique requires specific training.)
