Who does Structural Integration Help? Whether you are a desk jockey, work on a job site, save lives in a hospital, teach America’s youth, or running a household your body needs to be in balance. The repetitive motions and stresses of each of these very important jobs cause the human body to drop into an imbalanced structure. If you add that to gravity pushing down on you then many of the pains you experience on a daily base aren’t so hard to grasp. Our world today is not made to work with the body so the body needs tuning up now and again to work with the world. You will find your job and life easier to handle when you no longer need to force yourself to stand up straight. Structural Integration is not a replacement for exercise and healthy eating, but you may find yourself more willing to walk to the store and buy an apple if you know it isn’t going to hurt when you stand up. I’m here to change your life, not just your day!. |

What is a Session Like? Each session is hands on and interactive with the client. Sessions are performed in a private room making use of a massage table and a Structural Integration bench. Male clients are in boxer briefs or basketball shorts; female clients a sports bra and workout shorts is preferable but the work can be done with loose fitting clothes (we work within your comfort level.) The work itself is done within a person’s tolerance level, often times feeling great as tissues and muscles are released from their tight restrictions. In some areas of the body where tissue is particularly adhered a feeling of stretching or a light burning will be felt as the tissue is lengthened and freed (this feeling is common and perfectly normal.) Clients are directed through a series of movements as the SI practitioner holds the tissue so that the client is freed through their full range of motion, also allowing the client to control the amount of sensation they feel by how fast they move. Although not required, pictures are highly suggested to be taken before the first session and after each following session so both the client and SI practitioner may track the progress. These pictures are the property of the client and are protected by federal privacy law unless otherwise released by the client. Single sessions are available for spot work, but to feel the best results the full ten sessions is suggested. Each session builds upon the previous to create total balance.. |
