Sports Massage
My Approach to Orthopedic and Sports Massage
In developing my style, I’ve been influenced by several renowned instructors:
Erik Dalton: A Certified Rolfer® who integrates osteopathic principles into myoskeletal alignment, focusing on structural balance.
Art Riggs: Another Certified Rolfer known for his intuitive deep tissue and myofascial techniques.
Ruth Duncan: A practitioner of John F. Barnes’ Myofascial Release (MFR), which uses gentler, sustained pressure compared to the structural focus of Rolfing®.
John L. Waslaski: A pioneer in orthopedic massage, emphasizing targeted treatments for specific musculoskeletal issues.
Aubrey Gowing: An Irish Master Myoskeletal Therapist known for his expertise in sports and orthopedic techniques.
Each of these teachers brings a unique perspective, from the structural realignment of Rolfing® to the gentle fascial work of Barnes’ MFR, enriching the way I approach each session.
By integrating these varied influences, I offer a comprehensive approach that combines the precision of orthopedic assessment with the depth of structural and myofascial techniques. This allows me to provide a tailored treatment that supports both athletic performance and therapeutic recovery.
