What Is Structural Medicine?
Structural Medicine is an advanced form of bodywork that uses myofascial release, postural analysis, and movement re-education to restore proper alignment and function to a client’s body, relieving injuries, chronic pain, and movement dysfunctions.
It bridges mainstream medicine’s well-established and proven evaluation tools (strength, range-of-motion, postural assessment) with the latest scientific developments in alternative treatment therapies (manual therapy, myofascial release, movement and neuromuscular re-education, energetics, and dialogue).
Structural Medicine uses Myofascial length testing (MFLT) which provides a baseline of your physical restrictions and allows me to monitor your progress and modify the treatment program to enhance gains.
Through balancing and aligning the body’s soft tissues, Structural Medicine sessions move you closer to more efficient organization and improved function. It uses an integrative process to develop a new sense of awareness allowing you to re-shape posture, movement patterns, and your sense of self. This often results in a reduction in pain and improved function in your activities.
How I'll Work With You
A single Structural Medicine session: We’ll address the root cause of your current painful areas and movement challenges. After an evaluation of your whole body’s structure and a thorough health history, I’ll provide hands-on treatment to reduce your pain and improve your range of motion. Then, I’ll make suggestions about your posture and movement to develop a deeper understanding of your body in daily movement. This is a great way to be introduced to Structural Medicine as a treatment approach and see if it’s right for your needs.

The Full Structural Medicine Series: a package of 12 sessions, each 2 hours long: When we spend 12 sessions together, I can address the entirety of your body’s structure, going beyond the first level of restrictions in your body, and diving into the deeper levels that contribute to your overall freedom in movement and ease.
