Have you been suffering from pain after a Car Accident?

Is your neck bothering you?  Your back?  Noticing discomfort years later?

Even when you think you have not been hurt right after a car accident impact, the smartest thing you can do is see a physician. That’s because you can be thrown out of proper alignment without being aware of it. The impact of all that energy coming at and through you is bound to create some type of imbalance in your system. Any incurred stress patterns can potentially turn into pain.  So get checked out thoroughly.

Car Accident

The best thing you can do if having been examined is first to make sure that everything is alright.  If you are feeling any stress at all, you might ask your physician to offer some suggestions of practitioners who can help you either proactively or to help relieve pain.  Some ideas might be that you see a:

1. Specialist
2. Chiropractor
3. Physical Therapist
4. Massage Therapist
5. Movement Facilitator

Being a Licensed Massage Therapist, what I can speak about is bodywork and hands on healing.  I’d like to speak to the benefits of this type of work because many people see massage therapy as a luxury.  Rather- I’d like to offer that therapeutic massage can reach you in places that restore health and wellbeing uniquely and that are tailored to your individual needs more than any type of therapy I can think of.  I have seen clients who have tried just about everything without good results.  But with Myofascia Therapy and Craniosacral Therapy, the therapist listens to your inner body intelligence and addresses soft tissue and the Craniosacral System to bring you back to health .

Myofascia Therapy:  The fascia is a tissue that can be re-educated to help you to find a more efficient line in which you can move more easily.  The less you have to work against gravity, the more optimal your movement can be.  By looking at the structure of each individual body, one can see and also feel into rotations, adhesions and any dysfunctional pattern that contributes to pain.   By observing and listening with sight and palpation, an experienced massage therapist or bodyworker can help you iron out those issues out of your life!

Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a light touch modality which emphasizes balancing of the Central Nervous System in relationship to the rest of the body, as well as gently allowing the fascia to release and come into balance.  With about 5 grams of touch the therapist works with the flexion and extension phases of the cerebrospinal fluid motion to revitalize and strengthen.  Clients are often amazed by the end of the session at how much lighter and freer they feel.

In combination, these two modalities can do wonders.

You don’t have to live in pain.  Commit to your health and wellbeing.
