Myofascial Release and Massage Therapy
"That which is rigid and blocked will wither and die; that which is flexible and flowing will prosper and grow"
~ Ancient Chinese Proverb from the Tao Te Ching
The Yoga Room offers a ground breaking bodywork techniques known as John Barnes Myofascial Release. This therapy is a safe and very effective hands-on technique that involves applying gentle sustained pressure into the myofascial muscle and connective tissue restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. Trauma, inflammatory responses, and/or restrictions that can produce tensile pressures of 2,000 lbs per square Inch on pain sensitive structures that do not show up in many of the standard tests (x-ray, myelograms , CAT scans, etc. .
I look at each client as a unique individual. I educate each client about posture , self treatment instructions and ways they can get back into moving with more awareness. This not only helps the physical body but also our mental state.

Laurie and her clients are always amazed at the great benefits this technique offers while other forms of therapy have failed . This is not to say that Laurie does not "dabble" in Neuromuscular Therapy, Polarity, Swedish Massage and Connective Tissue, but don't be surprised if she encourages you to experience Myofacial Release Therapy into your session.

Lori Stahl
Lori Stahl is a Vibrational Sound Therapist. She is a certified practitioner of Biofield Tuning and Vibrational Sound Therapy.
​
Biofield Tuning is based on the premise that the human biofield - the energy field that surrounds and permeates our bodies is inextricably connected with our conscious and subconscious mind, including all of our memories. All physical, mental and emotional disorders can be perceived as "dissonance" in our energy fields. Biofield Tuning is able to diminish and resolve this dissonance and in doing so, alleviate and even eradicate the corresponding physical, mental and/or emotional symptoms.
​
In Vibrational Sound Therapy Himalayan metal therapeutic bowls are placed directly on the body, the healing vibrations penetrate the tissues and fill your body with a balancing resonance. The soothing pulse of the vibrations can aid in inducing deep meditative states, reducing depression and sleep issues, easing blockages and tension, increasing mental focus and gaining clarity of mind.
​
This is powerful work, and is contra-indicated for anyone with a pacemaker, a recent concussion, pregnancy, epilepsy or active cancer.
​
1 hour Vibrational Sound Therapy 75.00
Biofield Tuning Sessions 90.00
(Sessions have their own rhythm typically completed in anywhere from 50 to 75 minutes)

Therapy Descriptions
Myofascial Release
is a whole-body, hands-on approach and treatment that focuses on the fascial system. The Fascial System surrounds and infuses with every muscle, bone, nerve, blood vessel, organ, and cell of the body. It also separates, supports, connects, and protects the body. The therapist applies sustained pressure into myofascial restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. It is helpful when receiving this treatment you bring a pair of sport shorts and if your are a female sport shorts and sport bra or a reasonable like article of clothing.
