Our Consultations
What to Expect
Structural balancing is focused on the whole body, and the responses of the whole body to the work must be observed.
The client will be draped with sheets and positioned with pillows to facilitate therapy.
The one-hour sessions are usually not more frequent than twice a week (to give the tissues time to respond to the work), and not less frequent than once every 10 to 14 days (to keep from reestablishing old patterns).
Generally six to eight sessions will be required for children and eight to twelve sessions for an adult, although this may vary with the types of problems encountered. Treatment may include localized pressure to interrupt neuromuscular bad habits, stretching, and homework assignments.
Referrals for chiropractic, radiology, and dental assessments may be made.
Committment
Active Client Participation
Before committing to structural balancing therapy, the evaluation findings and the reasons for treatment are discussed, in addition to answering any questions or concerns the client may have. Commitment of the therapist and client to the treatment plan is essential. Bio-mechanical structural balancing and bodywork is not simply done to the client, but is an ongoing process in which the client actively participates.
