  • Interconnectedness Technique (ICT):

    • Imagine a body reflexology experience. Dave has skillfully remapped the body, uncovering the intricate connections between seemingly distant areas. Instead of solely targeting the problem area, ICT systematically removes blocks that affect the overall condition. By addressing related areas comprehensively, Dave achieves more complete and remarkably improved results.

  • Periostial Bodywork:

    • ​Delving deep into the roots of muscle tension, Periostial Bodywork focuses on the nerves within the bones. Muscles, rather than directly holding onto bones, grip the bone's covering, known as periosteum. Tight muscles intensify pressure on the periosteum, causing the bone to become sore over time. Dave's systematic massage of the bones relieves muscle tension at its core, addressing periostial soreness and providing profound relief.
