I am a self employed therapist and bring an abundance of practical experience to the table. I have worked on well over 13,000 pair of feet and 16,500 people in the last ten years, at my private practice in Melbourne, Florida... and have witnessed incredible, positive outcomes with various health conditions, ranging from arthritis to rotator cuff injuries, medial meniscus strains to sinusitis and even Parkinson's disease, and yes, the list continues on and on.....
Reflexology will facilitate healing in over 90% of the worlds health conditions. I am enthusiastic and passionate about this science because of all the amazing personal case histories. Applied correctly this science provides results in a big way. It's the "science" of reflexology that I would like to share with you.
As an Orthopedic Therapist I facilitate the healing potential by using a variety of soft tissue techniques, myofascial release, M.E.T. muscle energy technique, traction, compression, scar tissue mobilization, joint capsule work and soft tissue twisting. All of these techniques are blended into a format that addresses the specific concerns of the receiver. By lengthening the shortened contracted tissues you are able to facilitate the release of the overstretched ischemic tissues and return the body back into a state of structural balance relieving many of the symptoms being experienced. Orthopedic Therapy focuses on pain free healing.
As a healing detective it is important to unravel the soft tissue challenge by the intelligent use of technique rather than forcing the issue with our own agenda in mind. As we assess range of motion, end feel, postural distortions, and movement patterns, apply muscle testing and palpate tissues, we are able to gain the insight into the soft tissue problem. Orthoflexology was born out of the tremendous healing potential of Orthopedic Therapy and Reflexology combined. By treating the structural imbalance (Short vs. Overstretched) and then treating the reflex areas of the feet you are able to immerse the body (From the "outside in" & the "inside out") with a greater volume of blood flow which significantly increases homeostasis (Balance) in the body.
