MY PATH TO NATURAL HEALING

In 1995, I began training with the Upledger Institute. I took all the trainings that the Institute offered which were; CranioSacral, Mechanical Link, Lymph Drainage and Visceral Manipulation. Taking the classes and retaking the classes then assisting the classes in CST, LDT and VM has given me a very deep understanding of how to evaluate and find tension placed in the body from old injuries creating pain and dysfunction and most important how I can gently massage and release the tension. Bringing all my training together as one integrated whole and my 20-years of experience has given birth to Green Way Healing. GREEN WAY HEALING Enjoy Life Pain FREE Enjoy going.

The difference in this approach is the evaluation to find the source of the pain or symptom. For example, say you are having hip or knee pain but you haven’t injured your hip or knee but you sprained your ankle some years back. Tension gets locked in bones, arteries, nerves of the ankle putting a strain on the hip or knee. An evaluation of a trained therapist can find the source and gently massage the tension out of the bones, arteries, or nerves. Having had braces or dental trauma can lead to migraine headaches. Tension locked in the teeth can be gently massaged away! Migraine headaches never return when the source is no longer there. “An expert treatment in the wrong place is not as good as a poor treatment in the right place.” -Jean-Pierre Barral, DO, MRO(F), RPT
