CUPPING 

By using vacuum cupping we are able to pull fresh, nutrient rich blood into the sore muscles of the back and legs and speed healing.  

ELECTRICAL SIMULATION

The forced contraction and relaxation of muscles that e-stim provides helps flush muscles with new blood and heal them quicker

FOAM ROLLING & SCRAPING

Similar to scraping, foam rolling reduces adhesions and inflammation.  Scraping reduces inflammation in muscles and also breaks up adhesions that limit you

SOFT TISSUE MOBILIZATION

Our manual soft tissue mobilization breaks up adhesions and restores full range of motion.

I have so many great things to say about Tony. He is a deeply kind, caring, skilled, and dedicated therapist unlike any other my family has encountered. In the wake of covid isolation and other health issues my elderly mother had become physically weak and emotionally depleted. Tony working with my mother has done so much for her physical and emotional health it is hard to describe. We are so grateful for all of his care. He has helped my mother regain physical confidence and lifted her spirits. Tony is a truly unique therapist and I whole heartily recommend him. He will impress you.
