A little bit about our practitioner Connie

What is your greatest strength in what you do?

I define myself as an empathetic person. I always strive to understand each individual’s situation and try to improve each specific health condition, by working together with my client to find the probable causes, and then working together to build my client’s improvement strategies.

I have knowledge of the entire nervous system and its connections to specific areas and how the function together. Knowing exactly the innervation of the dermatomes or myotomes involved will help our sensory and motor systems, so we will have greater control of our sensations and movements.

Can you share your journey with your modality?

I am a specialist in neurological diseases. I have 10 years of experience working with patients with neurological injuries. I have had the privilege of treating people of all ages, but the common factor among them is pain caused mainly by muscle contractures. I have realised that people tend to normalise pain due to various factors such as blows, overexertion, increased muscle tone, bad posture, lack of rest, or a too-sedentary life. Contractures can make it difficult for a person to complete daily tasks and lead to feelings of frustration and stress. A contracture can also cause joint stiffness, limited range of motion, and decreased functionality. It is very gratifying for me when these problems are solved with a bit of massage or exercises during a treatment session. This helps release the stress for my clients at both a physically and an emotionally level.

What are the advantages of your modality?

  • Provides better nutrition of the muscular system and skin when blood is flowing better.

  • It balances the nervous system.

In three words describe what is so special about your modality

Effective, Accuracy and Immediate. 

Can you share a favourite experience in your modality?

Definitely, my favorite experiences are when clients regain their functionality, confidence and improve their quality of life. It is a team effort, when we work together. The patient is the protagonist, I only help you to increase your motor and sensory skills by eliminating contractures and increasing flexibility with stretching and muscle releases.
