SOT is a gentle yet highly effective technique that focuses on restoring balance to the nervous system. It specifically addresses the relationship between the sacrum and the occiput (the base of the skull), areas that are central to the body’s structural integrity.
By identifying and correcting misalignments or dysfunctions in these regions, SOT improves the body's ability to regulate itself and heal naturally. This technique is particularly beneficial for managing chronic pain, headaches, and issues related to posture and movement patterns.
SOT is a non-invasive, safe method that can provide profound relief for a variety of conditions, including those affecting the musculoskeletal and nervous systems.
European Osteopathy
European Osteopathy takes a comprehensive approach to healthcare, addressing the body in its entirety. It integrates structural adjustments with cranial therapy, myofascial release, and visceral manipulation to improve both the body’s mechanics and internal function.
This holistic treatment looks at how the musculoskeletal system, internal organs (viscera), and cranial structures work together. By correcting imbalances in these systems, we aim to promote better circulation, reduce inflammation, enhance nerve function, and improve mobility.
Osteopathy is particularly effective in treating a wide variety of conditions, from musculoskeletal pain to digestive issues and chronic fatigue. This therapy is also beneficial for people experiencing stress, as it helps calm the nervous system and facilitates deep relaxation.
Spinal Decompression Therapy
Non-surgical spinal decompression is a non-invasive therapy designed to alleviate chronic low back pain, particularly due to conditions like disc degeneration or disc herniation.
It is an FDA-approved treatment that works by gently stretching the spine, creating a negative pressure within the affected discs. This negative pressure helps to reduce the pressure on the nerves, allowing for better nutrient exchange and fluid flow into the discs, which can promote healing and regeneration.
By relieving this pressure, the treatment can also help to reduce inflammation and improve mobility, offering a potential alternative to more invasive procedures like surgery. It’s typically used for individuals who have not responded well to other treatments, providing a non-invasive option to manage pain and improve overall spinal health.
Functional Nutrition
Functional nutrition is about more than just eating healthy; it's about optimizing your diet to support your body’s healing process from the inside out.
Our nutritional consultations take a personalized approach to identify underlying nutritional imbalances or deficiencies that may be contributing to your health challenges.
We focus on whole foods, nutritional supplementation, and lifestyle modifications to promote gut health, reduce inflammation, support the immune system, and balance hormones.
By addressing the root causes of nutritional deficiencies, we empower you to make informed decisions that align with your health goals and enhance your body's ability to heal and thrive.
Cranial Facial Release (CFR)
Cranial Facial Release (CFR) is an advanced endo-nasal “balloon-assisted” cranial adjusting technique that has been used very successfully in the treatment of various neurological and structural disorders – often as a last resort treatment for difficult conditions after conventional forms of treatment have failed – for things like head trauma (TBI), PCS, post-stroke symptoms, Bell’s Palsy, trigeminal neuralgia, migraine headaches, vertigo, tinnitus, seizures, TMJ disorder, hearing loss, visual disturbances, breathing disorders, snoring, sleep apnea, sinusitis, deviated septum’s, emotional disorders, learning disorders, loss of smell, loss of taste, cranial distortions/deformities in infants + babies with plagiocephaly – the list goes on and on.
The primary objective of CFR is to open up the breathing passages and induce mobility in the cranial system (specifically the sphenoid bone) with the purpose of facilitating normal cerebral spinal fluid flow.
The technique is performed by inserting tiny balloons in the nose (specifically the naso-pharynx) then quickly inflating to mobilize the bones of the face and cranium.
Myofascial Release
Myofascial release is a hands-on technique that targets the fascia, a connective tissue that surrounds muscles, bones, and organs.
Chronic tension and restricted fascia can contribute to pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion.
By using sustained pressure and gentle stretching, myofascial release breaks down these restrictions, improving flexibility and reducing pain.
Cranial Therapy
The Cranial technique involves the gentle manipulation of the skull and its underlying structures to release tension and restore optimal function within the nervous system. This technique recognizes that the bones of the skull are not rigid but have a subtle, rhythmic motion that influences the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, which cushions and nourishes the brain and spinal cord.
By addressing restrictions in the cranial bones and membranes, cranial therapy helps to improve this fluid movement, supporting the nervous system and enhancing overall health.
The therapy is applied through light touch, targeting specific areas of the skull, spine, and sacrum, to encourage balance and alleviate tension in the cranial and fascial tissues.
This approach helps reduce blockages, improve fluid dynamics, and promote deep relaxation, facilitating the body’s natural healing processes.
Visceral Therapy
Visceral manipulation is a gentle manual technique developed in osteopathy by Jean-Pierre Barral that focuses on the relationship between the body’s organs (viscera) and their connective tissues.
It aims to reduce tension in the fascia surrounding organs, which can result from surgery, injury, disease, or poor posture.
This tension can cause a cascade of issues throughout the body, affecting both organ function and the neuro-musculoskeletal system. The technique helps release these tension points, promoting optimal function in the internal body structure.
In chiropractic care, visceral manipulation is used to encourage normal movement and tone of organs and their connective tissues through gentle manual forces.
It can be appliedto treat conditions like musculoskeletal disorders (e.g., chronic pain, headaches), digestive issues (e.g., bloating, acid reflux), post-surgical scar tissue, and emotional concerns (e.g., anxiety, PTSD).
