It is a patient focused treatment resulting from over 25 years of massage therapy and 20 years of Craniosacral Therapy (SomatoEmotional Release) practice during which Andrea noticed certain presenting patterns and tendencies and various successes of techniques on these stress adaptations. Each I-CSMT session is a unique progression based approach focusing on physical manifestations of an overwhelmed Nervous System.

Common conditions supported include: general stress, anxiety, depression, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Generalized Pain Disorder, sleep disturbances and PTSD. I-CSMT may also be of benefit as a supportive therapy (physical) for those under the care of mental health specialists. (Please consult with your care provider). What to expect: Sessions can vary in length from 30-45 minutes. Pressures vary from subtle to firm without going over the pain threshold. Massage Therapy techniques may include general Swedish Massage techniques, CST/SER, Neural Manipulation, Fascial Unwinding, Trigger Point Therapy, Positional Therapies (Active Isolated Stretching (AIS), Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF), positional ischemic compressions), Biomechanical Taping/Cross Taping, and varied breathing techniques. Communication and patient feedback is an integral part of I-CSMT.
