Chiropractic Hands On Techniques
Cranial Work.
Utilizing both Chiropractic, SacroOccipital Technique (SOT), Osteopathic, and energetic cranial pulse techniques, Dr. Laura integrates any necessary adjustments to your neck and spine with a combination of these specialized cranial techniques.
This takes the stressors off the complex movement of the 22 bones of your cranium, restores a balance to the natural pulsations that allow you to experience a blissful feeling of freedom and flow of energy throughout your body and being, head to toe
Cranial work is definitely a powerful and effective chiropractic tool – not just for headaches, earaches, face pain, jaw pain and neck pain: this type of work restores a sense of well-being and calmness, promoting better brain function, hormonal balance, muscular integrity, better digestion and clearer vision.
Myofascial Release Techniques.
Stretching over 40 years, Dr Laura’s experiences and trainings encompass deep-tissue/myofascial release massage, Therapeutic Touch, Polarity therapy, Bio-Energetic Synchronization, Energy work, as well has trained with Rolfers and Hellerworkers. She brings competency and an effective skill-set to the table to facilitate the release of connective tissue adhesions from your body.

If the tissues are severely twisted, knotted and/or inflamed, the myofascial work may be too painful to release.
To help with this, Dr. Laura may use the Summus Medical Laser, SCENAR, BEMER, Vibracussor, and Arthrostim to help in this process, all of which accelerates the healing process and alleviates painful, inflamed areas of your body, depending on what is needed.
Accumulated adhesions from injuries, poor posture, effects of gravity, repetitive use, dysfunctions of the joint systems and chronic inflammation eventually affect us all. Their release brings about relief from pain and restores integrity to the total functioning of the neuro-musculo-skeletal system.
