We use several highly effective body-work modalities to improve joint alignment and posture, tissue flexibility and mobility, and muscle activation. We want you to feel comfortable, relaxed, and safe in your body and so activated that your body begs you to move and exercise!

MAT is the foundation of our assessment and treatment protocol. It offers a series of “checks and balances” that ensure that increases in range of motion are appropriately strong, stable, and thus safe. Practitioners utilize a range of motion assessments, targeted muscle tests, and manual palpations, improving the brain’s ability to contract the muscles on demand.

Clinically, trigger points are described as discrete, focal, hyper-irritable spots located in a taut band of skeletal muscle. They produce pain locally and in a referred pattern. In lay terms, part of the muscle cramps and causes discomfort until released. The muscles cannot lengthen or shorten properly until they are addressed. Brian Hannah learned Trigger Point therapy from Doug Nelson and his colleagues at PNMT MidWest in Chicago, IL. He uses trigger point therapy as needed to alleviate negative sensations and, in conjunction with MAT, to improve the overall stability of the affected area. Clients report that the area feels “looser” and that negative sensations such as tightness, tingling, and pain are often no longer there.

The skin and fascia can develop tension, which can be a sneaky root cause of dysfunction or symptoms by limiting range of motion and appropriate tissue flow, including skin, fat, fascia, nerves, blood vessels, and the lymphatic system. We use a combination of manual techniques and instruments to restore normal tension and flow, often leading to profound changes in flexibility, strength, and flexibility and feeling deeply safe and free.

Brian Hannah attended several courses taught by Dr. Joshua Margolis, LAc, DAOM, and DOMPT, and utilized the techniques as needed to assist in his goal of improving his body’s range of motion, strength, and function. These techniques are safe and effective and do not require a medical license to perform. To be clear, Brian is not a licensed Osteopath.
