Fasciae Therapy

Learn why
Fasciae Therapy
speeds healing and is more effective than
​
Traditional Massage Therapy
​Prices and availability may be found during online booking.

Every Fasciae Therapy Session Includes:

  • ​Free consultation
  • Palpatory assessment​
  • Customized Fasciae Therapy (Paula's massage therapy and bodywork using a variety of methods, as needed.)

About the free consultation and palpatory assessment:

Every session is fully customized from information gleaned during the consultation and palpation assessment. Where we hurt, feel restricted, or unwell is usually where the body has been compensating for too long in order to deal with where the real problem is. Those compensations are like the squeaky wheel, so compensations are usually attended to first. Once the squeaky wheel is appeased, the path to the true root of the problem that has been causing the body to compensate, can be more easily tracked down. It's a little like cleaning a window covered in mud so that you can see what is on the other side. If the body has only been compensating for a few weeks or a few months, it is more likely that both issues can be found during the first one or two sessions. If the body has been compensating for years or decades, it may take a series of sessions to get it all. But this is not always the case: Clients are surprised to learn that injuries from decades ago can often be repaired in just a few sessions, sometimes just the first session! That's the beauty of understanding fasciae and its role in caring for the body.

About Fasciae Therapy

When Fasciae Therapy is requested separately from any Combo, clients are surprised to discover that the therapy is less pleasant and seems to take longer. This is not their imagination. When BioSyntonie is received before bodywork begins, everything just works better, and this is why the ad hoc Fasciae Therapy is labeled "2nd best." However, there are times and reasons for choosing Fasciae Therapy, alone, and that's why it is offered as an ad hoc session. Depending on the session chosen, the fasciae of the whole body (longer sessions needed) or just one or two areas needing immediate attention are manually manipulated using a variety of tools. The implements used for Fasciae Therapy are chosen based on the consultation, assessment, and which tool will provide the best results, and could be any type of hands-on massage, tok sen, gua sha, and/or cupping, guaranteeing a unique and customized session, every time. You and your body are always changing; your bodywork therapy should, too.
