Jane Marchant,
Physical Therapist
(licensed in Switzerland
and Costa Rica)
Physical Therapy : a session
may combine sports or therapeutic massage, Myofascial release, Manual
Medicine therapy, Yoga therapy, Ultra-sound therapy, cold packs, taping,
orthopedic exercises, Spine Education Class and fitness program.
For sore or injured muscles and joints, acute or chronic lower back
pain, neck and shoulder pain, sprains, tendonitis, arthritis, post surgery
recovery, etc...Every session is tailored to your specific needs and
wishes. I emphasize a “hands-on” approach with a commitment
to patient education and injury prevention.
Therapeutic Massage : Therapeutic
massage brings about positive changes and balance to the mind, body
and emotions. It reduces tension, relaxes the body, relieves pain, stimulates
blood, lymph and energy circulation, improves flexibility, body awareness
and even self-esteem, and promotes a positive attitude, enhancing the
healing process from within.
It is also a pleasurable moment to enjoy, making you feel relaxed and
nurtured. Touch is applied with focus, knowledge and caring. With all
these benefits, bodywork cannot be regarded as a luxury, but is a precious
tool in prevention and healing.
I may combine the following techniques to better address your needs
and wishes :
Swedish Massage : a gentle, relaxing massage that
enhances circulation, relieves tension and soothes tired muscles. Swedish
massage therapy is also known to improve muscle tone.
Deep Tissue Massage is designed specifically for areas
of tension and pain in the muscular system.
Prenatal and Postnatal Massage are designed specifically
for mothers-to-be or new mothers.
Sports Massage is the science and art of applying massage
techniques to ensure the health and well being of the athlete in you.
Yogassage is done on a mat on the floor. The practitioner
assists the client in a series of passive yoga stretches, applying pressure
on the muscles to help them release and along the energy meridians.
Pressure on the body helps reduce the body’s level of stress hormones
and stimulates certain sensory receptors, giving you more and better
sensations on how your body moves and feels. This method benefits all
people, old or young, flexible or not so flexible. It is also extremely
therapeutic, as it rebalances the different muscle groups and brings
the body back into postural alignment. Deep breathing exercises help
the client to connect the body to the mind. Yogassage leaves you totally
relaxed, your muscles stretched out and released. Wear loose fitting
clothing for Yogassage.
