Physical Therapy Body-work
The body-work that physical therapists do is very likely to be different from what massage therapists do.
Whereas typically the goals of a massage therapist are relaxation or reducing muscle stiffness, a physical therapist such as Ria Keinert’s goals are to use the hands to address a dysfunction in the muscles, joints, lymphatics, fascia, and/or organs.
Ria is trained in 8 different types of body-work including:
- Myofascial Release, including Scar Release & Skin Rolling.
- Craniosacral Therapy
- Visceral Mobilization
- Joint Mobilization
- Soft Tissue Mobilization
- Manual Lymphatic Drainage (aka M.L.D.)
- Myokinesthetic
- Energy Therapies, including Reiki & Healing Touch
