The Root of Pain

August 17, 2019 by Lisa T.

The CNS and PNS Here is the soft tissue system that registers pain to the brain to be interpreted. It’s called your PNS and CNS and is composed of all of your nerves. They are filled with axoplasmic fluid and tiny blood vessels. What tissue do these nerves flow into? The muscles and organs. And the blood constantly flows throughout all of it, never stopping, pumped by the heart. That’s amazing in itself, the skin holds it all in there […]

If the PNS can heal, why not the CNS?

August 16, 2019 by Lisa T.

The PNS is the peripheral nervous system and is beholden to the muscles and the blood to heal due to the fact that the nerves innervate or GO THROUGH your muscles. The muscles and blood rule the body. It is well known, observed, and corroborated by science that the roots and branches of your nerves heal very well after trauma. Axon regeneration in the PNS The articles never give credit to the muscles and blood but there is nothing else […]

The Muscles Need to be Treated and Viewed Medically

February 22, 2019 by Lisa T.

What is the name for a Doctor of Muscles? For instance, a doctor specializing in nerves is a neurologist. A doctor specializing in the bladder system is a urologist and the list continues. There are always medical specialists for specific organs simply because the modern medical education system is reductionist which is the breakdown of the body down into pieces in its study and application of treatment even though the body functions ONE WHOLE UNIT. Every part affects every other. […]

My Car is Broken (my body) and the Mechanic (the Dr.) Needs to Fix It.

January 24, 2019 by Lisa T.

The title is not really an accurate analogy but that’s the way most patients think about their body; like a car. When you touch and move your body does it FEEL like a metal, rubber, and plastic car? No. You are not made of metal, rubber, and plastic. Do you run on gasoline? No, You run on blood and air that is fed by Qi, food, and water. Your body is squishy, like soil, clay, or grass, your bones feel […]

Muscles and Blood are Most of your Anatomy

June 21, 2018 by Lisa T.

I want to change the name of my business to, “It’s the Muscles” because when it comes to pain and resistance or trouble in the body it starts with muscle adhesions and snowballs down from there. It’s still amazing to me as a bodyworker that the two most abundant and powerful aspects of the body are not medically understood or treated medically by the healthcare profession. You can’t plant seeds or plants with roots by raking the top of the […]

What I’ve Learned Treating Functional Scoliosis

March 23, 2018 by Lisa T.

Your toned muscle holds all of your bones in proper alignment. Your muscles cannot be toned if they are injured, or contracted (tight). I’ve known that for twenty years. There is no amount of force that will align your bones without pain if your muscles are very tight/contracted. In addition, it makes no difference if your bones are aligned. What matters is that your TISSUE is aligned and strong. When that happens, your bones will follow, they’ll align and be […]
