Therapies Laurie Offers
Laurie uses a variety of holistic techniques depending on the needs of her clients. Many involve the use of very gentle touch as alternatives to or in conjunction with conventional Physical Therapy. They include:
- Neurofascial Release
- Craniosacral Therapy
- Visceral Manipulation
- Myofascial Release
- Complementary Medicine/Energy Healing
- Therapeutic Exercise
- Quantum Touch
- Quan Yin Healing
Neurofascial Release and Myofascial Release are hands-on techniques which seek to free the body from the grip of tight fascia, or connective tissue, thus restoring normal alignment and function and reducing pain. Therapists apply mild, sustained hand-pressure in order to gently stretch and soften fascia.
Craniosacral Therapy is a manual procedure for remedying distortions in the structure and function of the craniosacral mechanism - the brain and spinal cord, the bones of the skull, the sacrum and interconnected membranes.
Per Connecticut State Law a doctor referral is not required for one month or six visits.
