ASIAN BODYWORK THERAPY
What is Asian Bodywork?
Asian bodywork is a form of manual therapy effective in the treatment of acute and chronic pain in the body. This differs from a traditional massage in that bodywork addresses structural issues directly and is not typically considered “relaxation” therapy. Like massage, bodywork will create release and reduced stress and tension in the body, by addressing the structural patterns that influence pain and tension.
What to expect:
Unlike traditional massage, you typically don’t need to undress. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that can be shifted up or over areas during your session.
What does Asian Bodywork address?
This form of manual treatment therapy addresses root structural alignment issues, acute and chronic pain issues. This is not “relaxation massage,” the modality focuses on resolving the source of the pain by addressing structural imbalances in the body directly. In practice, we’ve had great success treating: Plantar Fasciitis, Sciatica, Pain under scapula (rear rib and shoulder pain), knee pain, locked or frozen shoulder, Ice-scraper shoulder, anterior shoulder pain in the AC joint, low back pain, anterior hip pain, low back pain that wraps to the hip flexors and legs in the front, rib pain situations, including locked, turned or frozen ribs and binding in the upper back and chest, neck pain, neck pain with headaches.
Asian bodywork is the perfect modality to address occupational stressors in the body and compliments chiropractic work, acupuncture, etc., where structural issues are effecting your quality of life. Many people express relief immediately during the session, with many acute issues being addressed on the spot. Long-term and chronic issues may require more sessions to fully resolve, and certain movement “homework” may be suggested to fully resolve your pain and structural issues. It is strongly encouraged to do the prescribed homework as suggested, as well as the Tinman protocols available here on the website, to promote overall health and longevity of your range of motion and weight distribution over time.
