Neck & Shoulders

 Lasting Shoulder and Neck Pain Relief

Symptoms from Occipital Neuralgia respond well  when individual fiber strokes release the chronically shortened myofascial fibers that hold distortions in the neck and shoulders, causing shoulder or neck pain, limiting range of motion, and severely restricting proper function of the muscle. These fibers include scar tissue adhesions within and between muscles and layers of facia, bunching and thickening of fibers around muscle attachments, and bunching and thickening of tissues around joints. Significant results are usually achieved by using specialized myofascial release protocols integrated with cranial release.

                               

                                    Treatment Goals

• normalization of structure of neck

• normalization of trigger points, trigger point referral zones, and related of muscles

• Mobilization cranium including the occiputal and OM (occipital/mastoid)

• mobilization of splinting immobilization

• increase range of motion

• diminish, ischemia, fluid and inflamation

• release muscle spasms

• relieve nerve entrapments from adhesions spasms, scar tissue

• normalize energy flow through accupressure meridians

• increase energy flow through damaged tissues for healing

• release charachter armor

• release clients emotional charge

• alleviate neck pain

  

Whiplash

Many motor vehicle accident victims will experience multiple injuries as well as emotional trauma. The combination of Quick Release Technique and advanced massage therapy techniques is very effective. Although the whole body is involved, several conditions that occur in the head, neck and shoulders as a result of a motor verhicle accident are:

• misalignment of the structure of the neck, usually a reverse curvature

• splinting by the body to immobilize the neck due to damaged tissue

• myofascial holding patterns that limit the range of motion of the neck and shoulders

• emotional stress creating pain and contraction tissue that is blocking the experience of the pain or emotion

• cranial distortions and compressions

• nerve entrapments resulting from tightened in spasm

• adhesions scar tissue and damage tissue

• swelling and inflammation of cervical muscles

• inflammation of cervical muscles

• inflammation and swelling of nerve tissues

• shortening of the soft tissue in the posterior neck, causing a jamming of the occiput, atlas and axis

The application of theses treatment protocols will address the condition and relieve whiplash symptoms by:

• releasing the reverse curvature of the neck allowing the client to lie more comfortably in a supine position

• mobilizing muscles that have become splinted to protect the injured area

• initiating the release of the myofacial holding patterns

• mobilizing the energy that blocks the experience of pain or emotions surrounding the accident

• initiating the release of muscle spasm taking pressure off nerve entrapments

• decompressing the cranium and mobilize the occiput

• reducing the swelling and inflammation of cervical muscles and nerve tissues

• mobilize the occiput, atlas, and axis

• reducing the pain in the trigger points referral zones

• opening the acupressure meridians to increase the energy flow through damage tissues tissue for healing.
