How Applied BioMechanics Works

     How does Applied BioMechanics work? First, one must observe what happens in the body when it is in strain. The body is always trying to achieve homeostasis; being a normal, functioning state. Stress, being constructive, makes the body stronger and more functional by the body proprioceptively learning where it is at in space and how to best function while retaining its center of gravity.
     When stress becomes too much and goes beyond where the body can retain normal function, the iso point/ elastic limit, then it cannot return to normal and the body is officially in strain. The body must adapt, as in, the neuromusculoskeletal system must develop new relationships to be able to function as well as it can.
     Applied BioMechanics works by using a plumb line and t square to accurately assess where a person’s center of gravity has moved to and the proper contact point that will encourage the center of gravity to return to normal. When the proper contact point is found in standing position, a change can be seen in the body. However, the body is still under the influence of gravity so the major work takes place in the prone position.
     When the client is on the table, contact is taken at the point found while standing on the t square. This very light touch shortens the gluteal muscle towards it’s point of origin in a passive way, allowing the muscle to relax. The gluteal muscle, being an extreme load bearing muscle, when it can be relaxed, sends a ripple effect throughout the body as muscles that were previously taking on the jobs of other muscles are also able to relax. With the top part of the body and the lower part of the body only being attached at eight points, it’s easy to see how a strain pattern can quickly cause body-wide issues. So, it is only natural and completely logical that to move in the direction of ease of these important postural muscles would then cause the rest of the body to relax. It is as Dr. Hurley said, “Rest equals cure”.
     In individual muscles, there is a natural mechanism that signals a ‘repair mode’ after a muscle has been contracted. However, with repetitive strain, or just life, sometimes these signals don’t quite make it to the brain. There is so much going on mechanically, chemically, thermally, and electrically that the brain can not process everything.
By causing the postural muscles to move in a direction of ease, affecting the sacrum and
encouraging the center of gravity to move back to a previously held, comfortable way of being, you introduce true rest back into the system. This affects the body down to a cellular level.

Ashiatsu is performed on a mat on the floor and the client is fully clothed. Please wear loose comfortable clothing.

Ashiatsu massage, often referred to as "barefoot massage," is a unique and therapeutic bodywork technique. During an Ashiatsu massage, the therapist uses their feet to apply deep and consistent pressure to your muscles and tissues. The therapist can adjust the amount of pressure to meet your individual needs, ensuring that you receive a customized and deeply relaxing experience.

Ashiatsu massage is particularly beneficial for individuals who enjoy deep tissue work, as it can reach and release tension in the muscles that may be difficult to access with traditional hands-on massage. It's a unique and rejuvenating experience that can leave you feeling refreshed and revitalized.

What is lomi lomi massage?
The entire body is massaged with long, rhythmic, and sweeping strokes using the hands and forearms, and different parts of the body are often massaged at the same time. Lomi lomi massage can help lower blood pressure and improve circulation, flexibility and immune response. It is also known as Hawaiian lomi lomi full body massage.

Unlike many massage techniques, lomi lomi takes a minimalist approach with a few or no towels on your body or on the table. This is because therapists rarely massage one part of your body at the same time. Instead, they will move in long flowing motions that may start at the top of your shoulder and go all the way to your foot, for example. The absence of clothing also makes it easier for your therapist to perform underbody strokes without interrupting the flow of the massage. Some therapists use massage sheets in the usual way, and will just uncover larger areas of your body when access is needed. The more traditional practice involves providing you with small modesty towels to cover yourself. Traditional Lomi Lomi massage technique includes abdominal massage as this is traditionally considered the colon part of a person's soul or heart.

Therapeutic cupping for lymphatic drainage offers bodyworkers an alternative use of cups that yields extraordinary results; from addressing inflammation or circulatory challenges, to cellulite and facial cupping, this adaptation of cupping is exceptional.

Cupping is a therapy used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to remove stagnation and stimulate the flow of qi (chi). Qi is the free flow of vital energy circulating through the body and the world around us, if the qi is disrupted or disturbed, it can create stagnation (blockages) or imbalances in the body. Cupping also helps to treat pain, deep scar tissue in the muscles and connective tissue, muscle knots, swelling and helping with lymphatic drainage.
