What is Movement Integration?

A life time of movement that keeps on developing  

I take pride in identifying your needs and evaluating your condition. I want you to improve physically, mentally and holistically.

The combination of hands-on treatment and movement therapy offers a holistic approach to patient care aiming to improve your overall wellbeing and to prevent further issues.

You may have tried physical therapy, chiropractic treatments, and you may have seen orthopedic surgeons. The benefits of mixing osteopathic treatment, Pilates and cranial sacral therapy:

  1. Enhances healing and recovery by relieving pain, restoring function while improving inner body strength, providing immediate relief and long-term benefits, especially for those who are recovering from an injury or surgery
  2. Improves posture and alignment by addressing structural imbalances while focusing on exercise to promote proper alignment and muscle balance, improving overall body mechanics and preventing further injury
  3. Offers a drug free approach to managing chronic pain such as fibromyalgia and back pain by using manual therapy and movement while improving strength, flexibility and movement patterns
  4. Increases body awareness by attuning your body’s signals and needs while encouraging mindful movement and breathing, increasing your awareness to better self-care and a deeper understanding of your physical health
  5. Reduces stress and anxiety, improving your mood by releasing physical tension while promoting relaxation through controlled movements and breath control
  6. Allows you to be actively involved with your recovery, giving you a sense of empowerment and promoting long-term well-being
  7. Is a well-rounded approach to restoring and maintaining physical health
  8. Reduces the chance of pain recurring,  such as pain from scoliosis, sciatica, lower back, extremities and neck.
  9. Are complementary therapies that provide a comprehensive approach to health, rehabilitation and injury prevention
  10. Offers a well-rounded path to a healthier more balanced life whether seeking relief from chronic pain or injury.

 

Movement Integration is: 

Bringing in balance, balance in our bringing 

Movement is life, life is movement - eccentric / concentric - yin and yang 

One cell, one mind, one spirit
