My Fusion Therapy® Blend

My Fusion Therapy® style combines the fascial modalities of Structural Integration Therapy, Myofascial Release, Acupressure, and  Cranialsacral Therapy with Cupping, Gua Sha, and Hydrostone in varying degrees and with focused intention. Because fascia is around everything inside of us, from muscles, bones, nerves, blood vessels and organs... to the layer beneath our skin, around our spinal cord and dividing the hemispheres of the brain, this work has a significant impact on your entire being. In fact, you'll be surprised how quickly we can work together to make measurable improvements that get you feeling much healthier, stronger, graceful and grounded in that incredible body of yours. 

What to Expect in a Session

The Fusion Therapy® process is more of a focused rehabilitative manual therapy, than an "all-over body massage". That said, it is always performed with a whole body perspective and each session can take many paths. 

We will start your individual therapy treatment by talking. The more I know about how you live and experience your life, the better. This includes assessing your job, medical history, stressors and habits. Through learning how you live, I can gain a broader picture of how your body became unaligned and what the root cause of dysfunction is within your structure. Next, we will begin charting out your posture and gait, determining where you actually have shorter tissues that are pulling you out of alignment. Then, your unhealthy connective tissue is slowly softened and released; lengthening, reorganizing, balancing, and literally moving it back to a healthier state. As each fascial layer is unbound, it relieves trauma and tension stored in the tissues, thus allowing for a healthier flow of blood and lymph, in turn increasing nutrient and cellular waste exchange. This method eliminates any trigger points or adhesions that may be binding your tissues or causing referral issues. It also thoroughly works around and through the fascia of the muscles and other anatomy, elevating the whole area to a much healthier state. In fact, working through the fascial layers can mean working through all of the anatomical structures down to the periosteum of the bones as well as the subserous fascia surrounding and supporting the visceral organs. That makes Structural Integration Therapy, Myofascial Release and Fusion Therapy® some of the deepest and most comprehensive forms of clinical bodywork possible.

​Along the way, I will pause and tune in to other elements of your being, such as your cranial rhythm or your acupoints. I may tie in the different methods of Cranialsacral Therapy to release restrictions in your tissues or fascial diaphragms, freeing the flow of cerebrospinal fluid. I'll do this by gently applying mild pressure to them, allowing them to "unwind" much like a bound cord or rope. Or, I may sit atop different points along your meridian system, restoring the balance of the fascial tissues beneath, and thus the energies coursing through them. I may also utilize Hot Stones, Cupping and/or Gua Sha in areas that need further assistance from restrictions and lack of motion.

​From bones and muscles to the cerebrospinal and lymphatic fluids, this fascial work encompasses it all, even the energetic forces at play in and around us. Meaning you get a much more thorough and effective session. 

What is Fascia?

My Reviews

This is all done with focused intention to find YOUR ideal alignment for the most effective flow of energy. Your overall process is an interactive dynamic between you and your body, with me as your facilitator. Thus your goal achievement depends on how active your participation is. So, from here you will be given suggestions to reprogram and reinforce tissue changes, such as; ergonomic corrections, self care suggestions, conscious breathing routines as well as movements and exercises to perform at home. 

​​It is impossible to realign a structure without exploring attitudes and beliefs that may affect how you carry yourself, how you present yourself to the world, and how you experience your personal space. Because of this, Fusion Therapy® offers you a unique opportunity to reassess who, and how, you are in your body, and your life. Often times clients report intangible benefits such as feeling more comfortable in formerly uncomfortable situations, experiencing a new found pleasure in the use of their bodies, feeling more emotionally stable and mature, feeling more positively aligned with their goals and future, having a healthier and more optimistic outlook on life, expressing who they are more authentically, managing stress and negative emotions easier, embracing an overall happier and improved quality of life, and more.

It is important to note that the fascia of your body is a living tissue which is constantly being re-created by your activities, habits, thoughts and attitudes. The process of integration doesn't happen over one treatment, and it will continue as the body assimilates a new way of moving and being. There will likely be a new awareness of yourself that was not there before. Everyone is going to experience this integration differently, depending on the body you had at the beginning of our first session together. Our focus is not in trying to make you perfect, but to bring you to a more comfortable state in which you experience a life full of ease, grace, fluidity, and balance.
