MyoMotive Body Therapy

Ever leave the dentist and feel stiff in your jaw or neck for days after? You're not imagining it. Between having your mouth open wide for a long stretch and your head tilted back, it's a lot for your jaw joint (and sometimes your neck) to handle.

I broke down why this happens and what actually helps in my latest newsletter, plus a heads-up on my 2027 pricing and how to plan ahead with your FSA/HSA. Read it here: https://conta.cc/4yxl5p8

Fifteen years ago this month, I started this practice. I am still learning something new about the body every week.

This month I wrote about your nervous system, the part of you that runs your organs, your heart rate, and your stress response without ever being asked. When you are in pain or stressed out, it sits on high alert, and a lot of what I do on the table is help it settle back down.

There is also some research in there on why moderate pressure, not the deepest pressure you can stand, is often what encourages that shift.

Your skin isn't just keeping you together (though that's pretty important 😊). It's also the communication device between massage and your muscles.

When I work with your skin during a session, I'm sending messages to your nervous system: relax, let go, calm down. Your skin connects directly to the fascia around your muscles, so when I move that top layer with slow, sustained stretching, everything beneath it gets the memo.
This is myofascial work. It's working WITH your tissues, not against them.
