Aromatherapy Oils

December 5, 2017 by Lisa T.

Mixing botanical oils is one of my favorite leisurely things to do.  I go into underdrive with my intuition and “sense” about botanicals and meander in my rare lalaland. We learned all of the chemical constituents of them as well in my Master Herbalist class, but frankly, your nose can group botanicals in affinity.  I use different ones all the time in my practice. You can get the singles online or at any of the Harvest Health Stores in the area.  […]

Soft Tissue Focus

December 3, 2017 by Lisa T.

I want to make something perfectly clear from an anatomical, factual basis. The first line of treatment in musculoskeletal trauma and disorder is THE SOFT TISSUE.  The soft tissue is muscle, ligament, tendon, and nerve.  What feeds all of your plethora of soft tissue is the blood. Moving the blood with your skin INTACT, not cut, is ideal. There is no front line of treatment that is appropriate for the bones. It makes no sense whatsoever to treat the bones first […]

Adult Spine Flexibility

October 30, 2017 by Lisa T.

Of course, it’s possible to have a flexible spine.  Take a look; And there are ten more pictures of her doing various yoga poses on this site.

The Muscles in Your Back

September 27, 2017 by Lisa T.

This is a pretty good image of some of the four layers of muscle in your back.  As I work on you, I can feel, map and analyze the condition of all of them.  Your spine is down the center.  If your back was Congress and the two parties were Muscle and Bone, the Muscle Party holds the majority.  But your body isn’t democratic, it’s dictatorial.  There are no elections because this is evolution at work.  Your blood movement is the […]

Functional Scoliosis

September 27, 2017 by Lisa T.

This is right off of WebMD: “In most cases, the cause of scoliosis is not known. This is called idiopathic scoliosis. It develops mostly in the preteen and teen years. It often runs in families. There are two types of scoliosis: nonstructural and structural. I and my peers and my teachers know what causes it and we treat the cause.  The cause is severe shortening and contraction of the back muscles and soft tissues that hold your spine in place.  This could be […]
