This video is an overview of addressing Occipital/Atlano compression, which tightly correlates with the Vagus Nerve function. It is a review of a session I did with a client for their reference. Additionally, the Vagus Nerve traverses the neck...

Explores touch therapy, movement education via Sprike App, collagen and Vitamin C’s role, vision optimization, reflex integration, fascia significance, body reading, and natural arm positioning to enhance physical health and movement.
Fascia, the connective tissue matrix that permeates the human body, exhibits a complex, crystalline nature that has significant implications for manual therapy and bodywork. This crystalline structure is integral to understanding the...
When we think of feet we usually consider them as an integrated whole – the foot, which we put in a shoe. However, this is misleading as there are multiple functions within the foot, that are perhaps underutilized when wearing footwear...
Description of Types of Pain We have more words to describe pain than an Eskimo does for snow. Describing pain accurately is essential in manual therapy, as it helps in identifying potential physiological pathologies. Here’s a list of...
Thixotropy, tensegrity, fibroblast mechanotransduction, manual therapy, and gait mechanics, when examined collectively, reveal a complex web of interrelated biomechanical processes crucial for understanding therapeutic practices and their...
Mechanotransduction refers to the processes by which cells sense and respond to mechanical stimuli. Both fibroblasts (cells responsible for producing the extracellular matrix and collagen in connective tissues) and osteoclasts (cells...
While deeply embedded within our built surroundings, it is challenging for us to understand the movement dynamics of our hunter/gatherer ancestors. A recent discovery in White Sands National Park of ancient footprints, perhaps 23,000 years old...
Our reflexes, qualities of the tensile fabric of our connective tissue matrix, muscle strength, and conceptual framework influence how we move. Our characteristics of movement can be captured with Inertial Measurement Units (IMU) in the three...
The model of the gravitational force we employ, as we move about, is deeply embedded within our social construct. This model can be described thus: “Gravity pulls us downward and we have to push ourselves upward against this force to move...
Safe and Sound Protocol, based on Polyvagal Theory, uses specific frequencies to promote social engagement over vigilance, aiming to reduce trauma-related stress with a 5-hour, 5-day regimen, showcasing significant therapeutic success.
