POSITIONAL THERAPY

Positional Therapy is a gentle, effective therapy for the treatment of chronic and acute muscular pain, increasing range of motion, and correcting posture, muscle imbalance, and body alignment. IPT is founded on the osteopathic techniques of Strain/Counter-strain and Muscle Energy Technique. Strain/Counter-strain slackens a muscle and makes it shorter, while Muscle Energy Technique stretches a muscle and makes it longer. These techniques are highly effective for Lower Back Pain, Hips, Tension Headaches, Neck Pain, TMJ, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, Tennis/Golf Elbow, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Sciatica, Knee Pain, Plantar Fasciitis, Fibromyalgia, and more. Wear loose-fitting comfortable clothing for sessions.
