The first thing that will happen in every session is that we will sit down and talk.

We treat people, not bodies.

We want you to know who is working with you, and we want to know who we are working with. We will ask you questions about your current body issues and your goals. We will take a history, and find out as much as may be relevant about your life, including your work, your family, your activities and your sources of stress and tension. We will ask you about any medical conditions or recent injuries or surgeries, and any medications you may be taking.  We will tell you what our thoughts are about your problem based on what you have told us, and give you as much of an indication as we can of what you might expect to change in your body.

Although there are very few contraindications for receiving this work, if you have any special medical condition you are concerned about, please check with your doctor. 

At the end of each session we will provide movement education, discuss issues of ergonomics, and make recommendations about things you can change at home and work to maintain your newly aligned body.

What to Wear

Women - underwear (bra & underpants)

Men - undershorts, running shorts, or swim trunks

No spandex, please.

Number of Sessions

You can receive individual sessions or the entire 10 session series.  While the 10 session series is the most effective, any work received is complete and lasting.  Each session lasts approximately 1 hour and focuses on a different area of the body.  The sessions are typically scheduled one week apart but you can receive the work in as little as 5 weeks (2 sessions per week) or if time and budget do not allow, complete the work over 10 months. Over the 10 sessions, all regions of the body are addressed in a comprehensive and systematic manner.  You play an active role in the sessions.
