Holistic Health Dynamics

Craniosacral therapy is a holistic healing approach that focuses on detecting and correcting imbalances in the craniosacral system, which includes the bones, tissues, and fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Gentle touch is used to manipulate the craniosacral rhythm, believed to be the body’s natural rhythm, aiming to improve the functioning of the central nervous system, reduce pain, and enhance overall health and well-being. It’s often used to address a variety of conditions, from headaches and stress to chronic pain and emotional trauma.

Some people who may benefit from craniosacral therapy include:

• Individuals experiencing chronic pain, such as headaches, back pain, or neck pain.
• Those dealing with stress, anxiety, or emotional trauma, seeking relaxation and emotional release.
• People with musculoskeletal issues, such as temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction or fibromyalgia.
• Individuals recovering from injuries or surgeries, aiming to enhance the healing process and reduce pain.
• Babies and children with birth trauma, colic, or feeding difficulties, as craniosacral therapy can be gentle and non-invasive for pediatric patients.
• Those seeking relief from conditions affecting the central nervous system, such as multiple sclerosis or Parkinson’s disease.
• Individuals looking for complementary therapy to support overall health and well-being, including those interested in alternative or holistic approaches to healthcare.

If CranioSacral Therapy intrigues you and you’re curious about its potential benefits, consider scheduling an appointment to experience it firsthand. Take the opportunity to explore this gentle and holistic approach to wellness and see if it resonates with you.

I want to thank you all in advance for being patient as I update information on my website! As many of you know there are only so many hours in a day and only so much one person can do. So, thank you for understanding as I take my time updating and adding services and products and making it all presentable. If you’re visiting for the first time, HI!! Welcome! I’m glad you stopped by! I hope you all like the new updates and information that is coming soon!!

This video shows one of the many ways I utilize cupping. In this session, a shoulder issue was inhibiting proper range of motion with accompanying discomfort and less than optimal strength performance. I used cupping along with active stretching to free up the muscles surrounding the shoulder, ease tension and increase circulation to “sticky” muscle tissue to help regain range of motion and decrease discomfort.

I am so excited to share with you an inside look at what a treatment session looks like here at HHD!

The purpose behind this is to give you an idea of what my work looks like and how I treat certain issues like back pain, shoulder impingements, range of motion restrictions, etc.

These videos are geared towards the patients point of view and are not intended to be instructional with full on anatomical dialect. My goal is to make the content easy to understand and encourage others that have muscle related issues to seek out bodywork as a treatment option to correct and heal from those injuries, impingements, or restrictions.

Without further ado, I give you the first ever inside look at a how I treat musculoskeletal issues.

Just a quick quality disclaimer…Given that this is the first time I have ever done this, my experience with editing and adding commentary is very novice and it will get better along the way. So bare with me as I work out the kinks. 😉

Please let me know what you think! Is there something I missed or something you would like to see in future videos? Drop a line! Visit the contact page or leave a comment on the blog and tell me your thoughts!

New and exciting things are happening here at HHD! I am super excited to start sharing some short treatment videos that will showcase the kind of work I do in a session. So stay tuned!

If you’re on the ‘gram, you can follow me @HHDME. I will be posting content there as well!

Stay Healthy, Happy, and Free!

The newest addition to HHD is ready for its debut!

Rehabbing an injury? Let me help you stay on track!

Injury prevention? Yes, please! I got you covered!

Are you having trouble with lifting technique? Come in for an evaluation. We will work together and fine tune your lifting technique.

Sessions are 1 on 1 for 45-60 minutes.

You’ll learn how to move your body the way it was meant to while working out the kinks and building strength along the way.

The first step is making an appointment!

During this time of crisis with the COVID-19 outbreak, I want you to know that HHD is here for you. This is a very stressful time for everyone. I want everyone to know that I am still open and here for support in the capacity that I can provide.

Since this is a contact service, I will be wearing gloves during your session along with keeping up with my routine cleaning of disinfecting all surfaces and tools, door knobs, and high traffic areas, etc. As a healthcare professional OUR health (yours and mine) is top priority and taking precautions is the smart thing to do.

I have some temporary changes I want to enforce until this all under control and is no longer a crisis:

IF YOU HAVE RECENTLY TRAVELLED OUT OF STATE or COUNTRY, HAVE RECENTLY BEEN IN CONTACT WITH SOMEONE WHO HAS, or HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH ANYONE THAT HAS TESTED POSITIVE FOR THE CORONA VIRUS, Please reschedule your appointment until you are clear and certain you have no symptoms of illness. For reference we will use a 2 week minimum from your originally scheduled appointment for rescheduling.

IF YOU ARE SICK or you are feeling ill at all, PLEASE DO NOT COME IN. We can reschedule your appointment for a time that you are not sick or at risk of being sick.

The best thing we can do for each other is stay healthy and follow the suggestions of our health professionals and use common sense hygiene practices, wash your hands frequently, cover your mouth when you sneeze or cough and stay home if you are sick.

Remember to get fresh air often, move your body around and breathe! Use this time to hone in on your self care practices and develop healthy routines.

If you have any questions or concerns feel free to contact me via email or text.

I wish good health to everyone all the time and especially now.

The new location is up and running! I am still working to get everything organized, but the treatment area is fully functional and ready for you!

This is No Joke!

As one door closes, another door opens! Exciting changes are happening. I have decided that now is the time to hop on the opportunity to spread my wings. While this current office location is the birth place of Holistic Health Dynamics, it’s time for this baby bird to fly. I am excited to announce that HHD is moving to a bigger, more private setting! This new space will allow me to serve you all better and more efficiently.

As of April 1, 2020, the new location of Holistic Health Dynamics will be at 4 Fundy Rd, Suite 103, in Falmouth.

Fundy Rd is off of Route 1 with easy access to the highway (95 and 295) north and south.

If you have any questions or concerns about this move please feel free to contact me!
