Myofascial Release is a therapeutic technique involving gentle continuous pressure applied to the body. This technique does not utilize oils or machines. It’s commonly used to relieve knots that form in the back, shoulders, or neck. Myofascial Release treats swelling and pain throughout the body.

Our stretching and exercise protocols increase the function of the musculoskeletal system while eliminating pain.

Lymphatic Drainage opens the lymphatic nodes and increases the volume of the lymph flow. Within your body, lymph nodes work to destroy harmful pathogens. They are a major component of your immune system. Because of this, they can often become clogged and overrun. Our drainage therapy can help your lymph nodes run as efficiently as possible. The results are an improved immune system.
