Health and Wellness: Massage Therapy and Personal Training
This is not covered by most insurance plans. We do not bill insurances for our Advanced Manual Therapy under our Health and Wellness Program. However, this is a more cost-effective way to receive Advanced Manual Therapy and specific exercises.
Please note: Direct spinal manipulation and internal pelvic techniques are not part of the practice guidelines for Massage Therapy. These techniques must be done under our Physical Therapy program in accordance with Michigan Law. We understand that this is to protect the patient and ensure a high quality of training. We are pleased to have advanced internal training and spinal techniques available through our Physical Therapy program.
Myofascial Release:
We can teach you how to care for your whole body using the Myofascial Release Techniques as taught by John Barnes, PT. We have added the latest of neurophysiology and research to our delivery of Myofascial Release. We do this to integrate the best science has to offer with the manual techniques that will ease the structural tensions in your body. This is a comprehensive and highly individual form of manual therapy, combining Myofascial Release, muscle energy and craniosacral techniques into the overall treatment as needed to provide a comprehensive treatment technique for the complete person. You may hurt in one place, but actually have a limitation, poor alignment or decreased flexibility somewhere else which is actually causing the ‘danger’ signal to be sent to your brain – and your brain cares – it will take a lot of complex steps to protect you, including ‘playing the pain tune’. Our goal is to address the problem rather than just the pain, we will work to find the source of the ‘alarm signals’ and introduce movement. All the while, we are teaching you how to do this for yourself.
Between injury and full return to recovery, there is need for skilled and closely supervised exercises. Personal Training is part of the Health and Wellness Program at Healing In Motion in order to help each client reach the highest level of function.
Training sessions begin with a complete structural analysis, cardiovascular assessment and body composition testing. A specific program which utilizes the best practice and most current research in sports and fitness is then designed to help you reach your potential. All programs are centered around exercises and stretches which can be done at home, on the road, or at work.
Reach your highest potential and learn the skills for continued success throughout your life with our individual training program. Life Coaching techniques and general nutritional information are always part of the program.
