Manual Therapy
Manual therapy rapidly addresses postural imbalances, injury, and chronic pain as well as a host of internal imbalances similar to those treated by acupuncture. Manual therapy is very effective at helping release stored trauma. By addressing the physiological anchor of emotional and psychological pain, clients can experience freedom to enjoy life unencumbered by their past. Manual therapy is also very effective at improving athletic performance.
Treatments involve a trained therapist using acupressure, fascial release, massage, guided breathing, and stretching to activate the recipients own healing energies, as well as offering advice based on classical Chinese and modern herbology and healing theory.
“Devon is incredible. He has helped me and my family in so many ways. His manual therapy skills are great. Our family is very sports active and is always straining and spraining our bodies. In one instance a well respected orthopedic surgeon wanted to perform surgery on my shoulder and Devon resolved the problem in 6 – 8 sessions. I have no problems with the shoulder anymore. He is very valuable to us and a great friend.” Bruce C.
Seiki Shiatsu
Seiki shiatsu is a natural evolution of the teachings of Shizuto Masunaga sensei and Ryokyu Endo sensei. Seiki shiatsu is similar to Zen shiatsu in that it aims to treat imbalances and restore harmony.
The central principle of Seiki shiatsu is people’s inherent ability to heal themselves. Through the application of direct, penetrating pressure Seiki shiatsu accesses a person’s sei ki, the natural healing energy that lies at the very core of their being. By touching the sei ki the ja ki, sick or stuck energy, is released and healing occurs.
Seiki shiatsu treatments tend to be intense and the recipient can expect to experience some discomfort as their body moves back into a state of harmony. This discomfort is small compared to the deep and lasting healing that Seiki shiatsu can affect.
Devon incorporates the principles of Seiki shiatsu in all his treatments but takes great pleasure in practicing the art on its own with those who wish to experience this profound level of healing.
