Visceral Manipulation All of our organs are covered with a thin facial membrane designed to help the organs hold their position and yet also be able to slide over each other.

The practitioner is trained in how to listen to these restrictions and treat them. Visceral Manipulation honors the body's inherent ability to self-correct through gentle movement to support the body in releasing these restrictions. Work is respectfully done with the partnership of the client, and special care is taken to only work in the sequence and area the body's intelligence signifies.

Neurofeedback Brain Training with HEG BrainExerciseWorks.com More people are experiencing symptoms of confusion and lack of focus. HEG, or Hemoencephalography, is a technique which uses an instrument that measures the amount of light reflected back to it to read the oxygenated blood flow in the brain. Increasing the blood flow is the result of firing neurons in the brain, which causes the brain to adapt and grow neurons in the area. Essentially, exercising the brain in this focused way will build it up just like a muscle is built up when used. This has been used successfully to work with symptoms of Autism, ADD, ADHD, migraines, Traumatic Brain Injuries, and other brain dysfunctions. It also seems to assist in confidence and depression. $1100/10 sessions. Includes pre and post series testing to validate changes.
