However, if planning to self-submit invoices for reimbursement, please verify prior to scheduling a session whether or not your insurance company requires a prescription for physical therapy in order to submit a claim to ensure optimal success for reimbursement.

When applicable, session finishes with integration instructions or self-treatment strategies which the client may choose to utilize at home to speed progress.
First session with Joni: 2 hours
First session with Roger: 1.5hrs.
Myofascial release treatment is performed directly on skin. Wear or bring with you a pair of loose-fitting shorts and for females, comfortable bra to ensure most accurate assessment and necessary accessibility for the therapist’s treatment techniques. Infants and toddlers are treated in their diapers. Young children are advised to bring loose fitting shorts for the session.
The journey of functioning well, resolving pain problems, and restoring fluidity and ease of movement throughout the body varies person to person. Every client presents with a unique history and individualized symptoms such that the required number of sessions are dictated by the client’s needs. Most clients know within the first session whether or not myofascial release treatment is the path that they have been searching for to aid in resolving pain and dysfunction. Due to the length and thoroughness of the initial consultation, some clients experience everything they need within the first session. Others find that a series of sessions is necessary to resolve their issues.
Familiarity with ‘facial’, the skin treatment for the face at a spa, leads many to assume myofascial release is a special release regime only for the face. However, the ‘s’ in ‘myofascial’ makes all the difference and refers to the connective tissue which surrounds and infuses the entirety of our body – head to toe. No oils, creams, or exfoliants, myofascial release is a manual therapy technique applied on dry skin and appropriate for the entire body, far beyond just the face.
Due to pain, trauma, and stress, fascia tightens down following unique 3-dimensional spiraled and webbed patterns. Reaching out like a vine or a snagged run in a woven sweater, restrictions can silently infiltrate other areas of the body that may be symptom-free but contributing to the root cause of the problem. In most cases, it’s essential to explore beyond the pain to multiple areas of the body to uncover hidden causes of the main symptoms in order to experience long-term benefit.
