FAQs

Bodywork

What exactly is bodywork?

  • Bodywork is a combination of massage manual therapy and therapeutic, rehabilitative, or restorative exercise. This is not the typical spa/relaxation style of massage. Most work is done through clothing and combined with different movements. Rather than just working solely on the site of pain, multiple techniques are combined to get to the root cause of dysfunction instead of just getting temporary relief. In addition to pain relief, bodywork can also be preventative or useful in improving athletic performance.

What kinds of issues can you help with?

  • Chronic or acute issues. Carpal tunnel, back pain, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, numbness, weakness, range of motion limitations, post surgical pain and scar tissue, headaches, TMJ, sleep and digestive issues for infants, and many others. In general, if it involves the body and discomfort it’s likely I can help.

What happens during a session?

  • First sessions are typically 75-90 minutes. They involve going over your health history, doing an assessment, performing some manual therapy treatments, and developing a plan for the future.

How many sessions will I need to do?

  • It’s difficult to say. Some issues are resolved with a single session along with a post treatment plan that’s followed well. Other more long standing issues can take multiple. In general I can tell within 2 sessions if your problem is something I can help with.

What do I need to do?

  • Aside from showing up, you just need to bring or wear clothing that is easy to move around in.

I already have a massage therapist, chiropractor, physical therapist, etc, why is what you do any different?

  • I have a unique combination of experience and education that has allowed me to help others even when they’ve been to a dozen other practitioners.

Do you take insurance?

  • I do not. I can however take a Health or Flex Saving Account debit card.

Is it possible to talk with someone before signing up for a session?

  • Absolutely. Give us a call at 984-377-2593
