Sbody Work by Chris
Deep Tissue - Structural Bodywork
This style of bodywork focuses on fascia. Fascia holds everything together in the soft tissue, effectively
shrink wrapping muscle on various levels. When fascia becomes too dense things become clumped
together which can cause all kinds of chronic problems.
By going in between the cracks, loosening the fascia, and making space in the body, I can restore normal posture and function. This relieves you of aches and pains that have been robbing you of peace for years.
Some conditions this style is particularly effective in treating include:
Frozen Shoulder
Carpal Tunnel
Chronic Back Pain
Piriformis Syndrome
Shin Splints
Plantar Fasciits
Any Tightness of the Leg

I have strong Renaissance tendencies in that in addition to being a clinical massage therapist I am also a legit and third stream composer, flutist, pianist and poet.
I am steeped in literature. I love dogs. And I savour the great outdoors. All the things I do feed off each other in ebullient synchronicity. Too much specialization engenders tunnel vision.
I am all about discovery.
