 COLLAGEN WEB

     The body is a web of very tough collagen fibers.  They wind through and connect our muscles, bones, joints and skin.

    Imagine a tablecloth stretched across a table.  As you pull on one corner, it stretches and pulls on the opposite side. 

    Tension and restrictions in our muscles and joints can pull on other tissue, causing pain and immobility. Many medical and orthopedic conditions are caused by disruptions in the connective tissue.

• Back and neck pain
• Pulled muscle
• Headache
• Carpal tunnel syndrome
• Sciatic pain

   Injuries and pain are caused by connective tissue that can't stretch any further, and tears.  These injuries can be healed, and future injuries avoided by treatment with deep tissue techniques.

 TREATMENT

    Deep tissue treatments align the body and release restrictions.  They produce lasting changes in the body, and relieve pain.

    Effective treatment involves removing the stress from the muscles, joints, and connective tissue, and letting the body heal itself.

    Deep tissue massage and stretching techniques can provide rapid relief.  Avoiding further stress on the damaged tissue will allow full recovery.
