DEFTherapeutic Bodywork uses a (w)holistic approach to assist the body's innate healing processes to restore, revitalize, and heal acute and chronic ailments, pains, and illnesses. Through energetic manipulations and structural bodywork, health, vitality, well-being and peace are achieved. These techniques can be helpful for postural and muscular-skeletal problems and stress related conditions; and for those who suffer from a ' subclinical ' state of ill health such as headaches and low energy.
Using time-honored techniques and manipulations that are based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory and Western anatomy and physiology, blockages in circulation and energy flow are released. The result is a boost in the flow of healing nutrients to organs, glands, muscles, and nerves, bringing harmony to body, mind, and spirit - the ultimate goal in the process of healing. These techniques make up one of the three primary branches of Eastern / Asian medicine. The other two branches are Acupuncture and Herbs - three branches of the tree of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Some of the conditions that can be effectively treated with TCM and Asian Therapeutic Bodywork are:
- Stress
- Muscular Tension
- Headaches / Migraines
- Digestive Disorders / Disturbances
- Anxiety / Depression
- Back Pain
