Cox Spinal Decompression
|
Arthritis in the spine is also called "Degenerative Disc Disease". A lifetime of gravity makes discs dehydrated and flat. This is why we get shorter as we age! Over time the discs stop supporting your body and your weight shifts from the discs to the joints of the spine. This causes pain while standing for a long period or when you first get up in the morning. Cox Spinal Decompression is an excellent way to restore motion and relieve the pain spinal arthritis!

Applied Kinesiology
|
Applied Kinesiology uses the subconscious muscle tone is ask the body questions. This answers are often intuitive, as in this case: A patient came in for care after a car accident and my inner voice kind of screamed "CHECK HIS C1!" Is C1 bilaterally anterior? "Yes" (That's not good.) Is it a hairline fracture of C2 odontoid process? "YES!" Is it safe to Adjust it? "NO!!" (This is the level of the brainstem, you do NOT want any fractures, hairline or not at this level.) I got X-ray confirmation that afternoon. How Applied Kinesiology work? It's hard to say, but it does.

Reiki Energy Work
|
Trauma is the body's response to overwhelming emotional or physical circumstances. Emotional trauma gets stored in the body, awaiting a time when it can be processed in a more controlled, safe manner. Unresolved trauma or grief cause persistent, recurring, circular neurological patterns that drain energy and block healing. This stress manifests at the body's "Achille's Heel", and can result in emotional or physical symptoms such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, digestive system issues, chronic fatigue, etc. Energy Work allows Devine energy to flow through the practitioner to the client to gentle remove any hindrance to health, happiness and spiritual growth.
Energy Work draws on multiple methods designed to short-circuit negative neurological patterns. These include Reiki, Bio-energetic Synchronization Technique (BEST), Reconnective Healing, Logan Basic Technique, Applied Kinesiology, Acupuncture, Polarity Therapy, Craniosacral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Somatic Experiencing Technique, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). |

Typically, a person with a psoas spasm (hip flexor spasm) will feel better while sitting, then when they arise from a chair they may need two or three steps before then can straighten to standing.
