Hellerwork Structural Integration
Your body is the vehicle that supports your experience and any change to your intrinsic sense of support will affect how you think, feel and experience the world around you. After thorough postural analysis, chronically restricted tissue is lengthened and dysfunctional movement patterns are corrected through gentle, deep restructuring of your body’s supportive structures. During a complete series of 11 sessions, easily broken up into stages and customized to your specific postural restrictions, the connective tissue in your body will be reorganized to more fully support you with balance and grace. Each session includes coaching in a complete system of movement exercises and awareness tools developed to help you maintain the positive physical and experiential changes of your Integrate experience. Throughout your transformation, attitudes and perceptions that contribute to stress and pain begin to surface, as you discover new resources in your body to change those deep-set patterns, often for a lifetime.

Visceral Core Integration
Similar to the way Hellerwork balances and aligns the musculoskeletal system (muscles, membranes, fascia and bones), visceral manipulation addresses the interrelationship of function and structure, but at a deeper level in the body: between the internal organs (heart, lungs, digestive organs, brain, nerves, and spinal chord), and with the musculoskeletal system. When the body experiences stress or strain, the supportive tissues of the organs often tighten up protectively. Traumatic impact can also affect the organs and surrounding tissue as forces move through the body.

Cranial Sacral Therapy
Cranial Sacral Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive form of bodywork that is able to directly influence the nervous system, brain and spinal chord. The technique is used to find and release areas of restriction, transform old holding patterns, and stimulate a relaxation response at the deepest levels of experience.

Somatic Experiencing
Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a short-term naturalistic approach to the resolution and healing of trauma, developed by Dr. Peter Levine. SE employs the awareness of body sensation to help people “renegotiate” and heal their traumas rather than relive them. With appropriate guidance with the body’s instinctive “felt sense”, individuals are able to access their own built-in immunity to trauma, allowing highly aroused survival energies to be safely and gradually discharged. When these energies are discharged, people frequently experience a dramatic reduction or disappearance of their traumatic symptoms.
