TREATMENT INFORMATION

Properly applied massage therapy can address conditions such as:
Migraines/headaches, temporomandibular joint syndrome (TMJ-D), chronic pain (neck, back, hip, shoulder, knee, etc.), and digestive disorders,

as well as relieve stress and anxiety.

CranioSacral Therapy (CST)

CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle, hands-on therapy where the therapist applies manual techniques designed to reduce pressure on the brain and spinal cord. CST enhances the environment of the nervous system and strengthens your body’s ability to correct imbalances, bringing about greater overall well-being and harmony. It is incredibly relaxing and rejuvenating.

Neuromuscular Massage Therapy (NMT)

Neuromuscular Massage Therapy (NMT) is an effective method of treatment for the relief of soft tissue pain and dysfunction. A hands-on, comprehensive system of soft tissue manipulation techniques, NMT balances the central nervous system with the musculoskeletal system. Based on the work of Paul St. John and Judith Delaney Walker, Brian has been certified in NMT techniques since 1989 and uses them successfully in daily clinical practice to help you reduce pain, increase range of motion, and achieve your optimal health and wellness. NMT is particularly effective for TMJ (jaw) dysfunction, headaches, whiplash, low back pain, hip pain, rotator cuff issues, myofascial trigger points, as well as many other soft tissue functional disorders.

MyoFascial Release Therapy (MFR)

Do you want to enhance your ability to run faster, jump higher, improve your golf game or just feel better? Myofascial “adhesions” cause painful restrictions around nervous and muscle tissue, leading to pain patterns which may not be revealed through standard medical imaging. Myofascial Release helps to create pain-free movement and restoration of normal range of motion. This gentle pressure is administered slowly over time to allow fascia to warm and lengthen.

Lymphatic Drainage Therapy (LDT)

Lymphatic Drainage Therapy (LDT) is a hands-on technique designed to enhance proper functioning of the lymphatic system, which helps circulate fluids and eliminate toxins throughout the body. LDT induces a deep state of relaxation and can help with the relief of chronic/acute pain, edema (swelling), cellulite, chronic stress syndrome, insomnia, and many other conditions.

Stretching & Flexibility/Active Isolated Stretching

Flexibility work with Brian Keena combines the techniques of noted Australian fitness authority Kit Laughlin, founder of the “Stretching & Flexibility” program, with Aaron Mattes’ popular Active Isolated Stretching protocol. The end result is a gentle, effective way to feel better, improve posture, extend joint range of motion and feel better overall.
