15 Minute Session (Simple Follow Up)

Description

A revolutionary treatment that utilizes a science based approach to greatly decrease muscle tension, joint restriction, chronic pain, and nerve restriction by releasing adhesions*. This treatment is done fully clothed without lotion and requires clients' active participation. Brief 3 second spikes of mid level pain are used to trigger targeted inflammation which kickstarts the body's natural healing process! Ideally the first session should be booked as a 45 min, then following sessions should be either 30 min or 15 min. This treatment also works best when done 3-4 days apart over several sessions, and pairs well with activity post treatment. Not "scienc-y" enough of an explanation? Creating focused moderate pain at the periostial level near an adhesion ilicits a pain signal to the brain which causes a systemic release of a neuropeptide called Substance P. This neuropeptide causes plasma extravision via vasodilation. The plasma contains components from our bodies immune system ie. macrophage, neutrophil, mast cell, etc. This process leads to a 24 - 48 hour localized, sometimes uncomfortable, swelling during which your body attempts to heal itself. *Adhesions typically form as an adaptation to prolonged excessive mechanical stresses such as tension, abnormal friction, compression, or from trauma. Frequent inflammation from immune responses and nerve entrapment can lead to adhesions as well. These factors lead to the laying down of additional tissue, swelling of bursas, mis-firing nerves which are hypersensitized, and an increase in imunicological components.
