Effective Results for Pain Management Wellness Relaxation

Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy

Muscle therapy is so much more than just making someone “feel good”, which is often the result of more superficial types of massage.

Pfrimmer Deep Muscle Therapy (PDMT) is the art and science of correcting deeper layers of damaged muscles and aids in the prevention of serious muscle conditions. PDMT DOES NOT follow the same principles as Swedish or deeper tissue massage. It is a comprehensive system of corrective cross-tissue movements designed to aid in the restoration of damaged soft tissue in the entire body. There are many different conditions that PDMT has had a positive effect on.

PDMT absolutely complements well with many other types of treatment such as orthopedic massage, myofascial release, cupping, kinesio taping, chiropractic, physical therapy and acupuncture, etc. And it feels great too!

Cupping

The technique of cupping is thousands of years old and has developed into what it is today. Cupping is a release using suction to pull blood and fluid that is “stuck” (which contains toxins and waste products) to the surface layers of the dermis to put it back into the bloodstream for processing. The newly oxygenated blood then flows back into the area to promote healing. Cupping is tailored to fit the specific needs of the client.

Kinesiology Taping

Kinesiology tape is an elastic adhesive tape applied to the client’s skin to help provide support and stability to the muscles and joints. It is designed to mimic skin’s elasticity, so it does not restrict movement. It also aids in more effective flow of lymph by microscopically lifting the skin, which allows for a decrease in inflammation. The tape is hypoallergenic and water resistant. The taping method is tailored to what the client’s needs are at that time.

GuaSha

GuaSha is an ancient Chinese alternative healing technique to aid in improving circulation. A tool used to release adhesions and scar tissue in muscle and fascia. It is a great treatment for chronically tight muscles, which can develop over time from stress, poor posture or previous trauma.

Reflexology

Reflexology is a science which deals with the principle that there are reflexes in the feet and hands relative to each and every organ and all parts of the body. Stimulating these reflexes properly can help many health problems in a natural way. Thumb compression is applied to the feet to clear out waste formations and to enhance blood flow into the feet.

Neck, Jaw, and Head

Do you suffer from TMJ dysfunction, head-aches, teeth grinding, stiff neck or neck pain? Benefits of massage focused on these areas can increase movement in the neck and jaw, reduce frequency and strength of headaches and relieve muscle tension and may result in improvement and/or relief in structural TMJ issues. You can also learn how to treat yourself when needed.

Orthopedic Massage

The body responds to soft tissue injury by producing scar tissue wherever muscles, tendons or ligaments are located which includes the low back, the neck, the shoulders, knees ankles and so forth. Orthopedic massage assesses a specific injury, and a unique treatment isolates and effectively treats musculoskeletal injury.

CranioSacral/Myofascial Release

CranioSacral Therapy is a manual therapeutic procedure for remedying distortions in the structure and function of the brain and spinal cord, the bones of the skull, the sacrum and interconnected membranes. It is used to treat chronic pain, migraine headaches, TMJ, asthma, and a range of other conditions. It uses very light touching to balance the craniosacral system in the body, which includes the bones, nerves, fluids, and connective tissues of the cranium and spinal area.
