Sub-Occipital Release / a gentle procedure / relieves many symptoms
Sub-Occipital Release is an astonishing non-medical method that releases chronic excessive tension at the base of the skull.
This method is non-chiropractic.
and is achieved in only one office visit.
The Sub-Occipital Practitioner is trained to look beyond the symptoms and go directly to the cause of the problem, "dural stress and excessive tension at the general location of the upper neck. This can cause dural torquing along the rest of the spine, which can then cause problems almost anywhere in the body including uneven leg length and headaches.
Using a special Swiss designed hand held vibratory device, the Practitioner will work to release the short musculature of the upper neck. Also, the fascia, dura, and other deep tissues surrounding the area are softened and relaxed, which removes tension and torquing, allowing for smoother freedom of movement.
Dural torquing along the rest of the spine is then eliminated and its proper memory reactivated. Once this is achieved, the rest of the body and mind can begin to return to normal function.

Our Approach to Healing
Physical trauma and energy imbalance is one of the most important causes of ill health. Some of the behavioral traits like anxiety, greed, jealousy, grief, anger, fear and frustration are also responsible in disturbing the equilibrium of energy within the body. This disturbance illustrates itself in a number of different ways.
Sub-Occipital Release is very effective in restoring the harmonious state of mind, body, and spirit, and can be further strengthened by other supportive modalities. We must always remember that healing is of divine origin and reaches one through one's higher self. It is a force superior to man's knowledge; the practitioner is but a tool through which the body's healing ability is awakened.
When This technique or any other procedure is received, it should be understood that it takes effect not only at the time it was accepted, but also thereafter in the days and weeks following. Healing is a continuing process, reaching the affected person day-by-day, bringing about progressive changes for the better as the corrective influence takes effect.
Spectacular results or instantaneous "cures" should not be expected, although dramatic changes do sometimes take place at the time of a procedure, more generally, improvement comes progressively, week-by-week, month-by-month, as the underlying causes of ill conditions are lessened and overcome.
These changes, for the better, involve not only the specific malady for which healing has been sought, but the total well-being of the person (i.e. spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical). Thus, it can be said that healing also has a preventative function, as a more harmonious state is attained the likelihood of ill health is lessened.
Our Goal
To unlock the blockages that are preventing true health from flourishing. To educate those who are seeking understanding and to understand those who are not. To encourage those who are willing to take responsibility for their own health and to help them discover new pathways on their journey to better health.
GOOD HEALTH TO YOU.
