Clinical Therapy Session
This type of session is geared towards anyone seeking targeted acute/chronic pain relief. Muscle, nerve and orthopedic assessments are used to reveal compensation patterns, postural distortions and weaknesses throughout the musculoskeletal system then these imbalances are corrected using many massage techniques listed in the Techniques tab.

Techniques are combined to provide the client with a unique approach to care that is needed to sustain balance and pain relief. The approach to care may change session to session. 
"Clinical Therapy" is best described as a physical therapy session, as you are fully clothed.

Kinesiotaping with RockTape

RockTape can assist with multiple ailments, however it has three primary functions: queuing form, reducing inflammation & swelling, and minimizing pain. Kinesiotape microscopically lifts the skin away from the muscle and fascia, which decompresses the area which reduces swelling as well. It also signals the central nervous system through the skin’s nerves, which provides powerful feedback to minimize pain and cue form. RockTape can be worn up to 5 days and can be worn while swimming or in the shower. It is made up of 97% Cotton and 3% Nylon, allowing for it to stretch and form to your skin like it's a part of your body.

Ashley uses RockTape, if necessary, in her Clinical Session to help remind the body to tell the overworked muscle to relax, and the weak muscle to start working again. Hence, where the term "Go Stronger, Longer" came from! She will use the tape on you two times, and if you want to continue to use the product, she encourages you to purchase some and bring it to your future sessions and practice using it at home!

During a 30 minute Kineisotaping with Assessment session, Ashley will use orthopedic and visual assessments, MET and NKT to reveal compensation patterns within the body, and postion the tape on you to help correct these imbalances.

Little to no massage is included in this type of session.

As you have progressed in your healing journey as an established client, you may request a therapeutic relaxation massage for your scheduled time. These sessions may start with a muscle testing assessment to help design the best approach to the session to fit your needs and many techniques such as myofascial release, trigger point therapy (NMT) and passive/active stretching may be implemented.

Therapeutic relaxation massage sessions are only for existing clients. If you would like a therapeutic relaxation massage as a new client, Ashley may refer you to her colleague Susan who excels in that category.
