Methods
MEchanics
Bodywork (Massage, CranioSacral, Muscle ReAlignment Therapy, etc) is my longest area of clinical study. I combine innovation, insight and the bodies precise feedback to restore integrity to all aspects of the mechanical system.
Structure, function and alignment are all intimately affected by the sea of muscle that covers the entire human landscape but the endless web of microscopically-thin fascia, just beneath the skin, is the boss! with regard to sustained, long-term improvement of bodies mechanics, as well as reducing pain and creating a sense of ease and overall, integrated well-being.
Some of the most distinctive and effective aspects of my clinical bodywork practice are: attending to and including this largely ignored aspect of physiology, establishing global cranial balance and resolving potent energetic scars called Interference Fields (with clay therapies).
ELIMINATION & DRAINAGE
The body is a flow system designed to heal via cellular communication, nourishment and the cleansing of toxicity and metabolic bi-products. The primary pathways of elimination are: liver, lungs, kidneys, lymph, and intestines, the health and function of which are vital for maintaining function for all bodily processes, for example: immune, metabolic, cognitive, cardiovascular and mental health.
If the primary pathways are clogged function will diminish and toxicity and waste products with back-up clogging and affecting the secondary pathways of elimination: skin, sinuses, reproductive organs. When the body is clogged it cannot repair, regenerate or rest.
If you have symptoms in any of these areas it is likely that your body is compensating due to toxic load in your primary (ex waking each night at 3:00 am or not having a bowel movement with each meal consumed per day) and/or secondary pathways (Skin irritations, sinus issues, reproductive health concerns).
Biochemistry
This has been my most passionate area of clinical study. It is my professional intent to effectively guide anyone truly ready to activate his/her body's ability to heal, regardless of diagnosis.
Traditional Chinese medicine, German models of medicine & intuitive listening have taught us to understand the language of the body & work with it's innate design. Using bio-energetic techniques (MFT, HK, RK, QRA, etc.) we determine the body's specifically-selected, real fuel so it can heal itself and restore it's biochemical terrain.
The body responds to stress in a very organized way; altering the internal environment creating predictable patterns that, left unchecked, consistently indicate a progression toward disease. The body also heals in a very organized way. Unhealthy changes in the biochemistry often start years, or even decades, before physical symptoms emerge. Identifying early emerging stress, at deeper functional levels creates immense health options.
Clinical Detox
From a clinical perspective detox is a multi-phase process including: ensuring the pathways of elimination are open, vital and ready; general & specific detoxification; and continued restoration of pathways and vital energy. Safe and effective detox should be guided by a professional, and dictated by your body’s readiness over your personal preferences.
Intelligent detox is key at the correct time and in proper progression according to your body’s specifications. For example, heavy metal toxicity is often a big concern for clients, but should only be addressed in the final stages of detox, particularly after the pathways of elimination have been opened, or there is great risk of “re-toxing” (re-depositing those metals in other areas of the body).
It is important to understand that you can't detox safely or effectively without also continuously restoring the organ/ detox pathways as well as one’s vital energy so there are enough reserves necessary to fuel the cleansing process.
We use combination homeopathy along with herbs & supplements to create the most gentle, effective and yet restorative process of detoxification available.
Neuro-Regulation
Our piece is to bring the body back to dynamic homeostasis so that it can maintain ideal health naturally.
This is bio-regulation. The body as healthy, in control of itself and it's processes; capable of constantly and precisely adapting and maintaining harmony via a complex method of cellular communication. The neuro-endocrine system, most specifically, the hypothalamus or "master regulator" are in charge of this bio-regulation.
If the body can't speak to itself and continue to adapt to it's changing needs, health will degrade quickly. Toxic sites develop in areas devoid of cellular communication. These are the places that disease processes and rapid aging begin. Where there is no communication there is diminished flow of vital processes required for recovery. The hypothalamus must be restored to it's natural sovereign role first and foremost for restoration of health and function.
Environment
I am not sure the average person realizes that the physical container in which we live, work, drive and sleep has an enormous influence on our overall health.
The art of space is a comprehensive study of your various environments to analyze their health, function and beauty. We look at all facets of your life and bring intelligent solutions to optimize the health.
The spirit of any space thrives when the field is clean, uncluttered and harmonized; free of geopathic (natural energetic) stress and electromagnetic (man-made energetic) stress.
I use various techniques I call environmental alchemy to recreate function and flow within a space. Remediation is the process by which we analyze the natural and man-made electrical stressors of a space and quickly and effectively correct them. In some inspiring instances we have the ability to take a stressor and change it's polarity whereby it becomes a healing mechanism, actually harmonizing and feeding you and your space.
