C.H.A. Family Wellness uses Complementary Modalities to balance the whole person’s health physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. We specialize in Integrative Meridian Therapy (aka Acupressure Therapy) and Somatic Trauma Release Therapy.
With these two unique forms of advanced bodywork, we target the root cause of our clients' complaints. Then, we engage multiple body systems simultaneously to help the body integrate and release from imbalances.
We aim to help our clients experience: relaxation, somatic integration, pain and trauma relief, structural rehabilitation and overall body awareness.
Integrative Meridian Therapy (IMT)
IMT is a form of bodywork that combines the body’s structures and systems with the meridian & energy fields.
The human body has a bio-energy-circulation system similar to the blood-circulation system. In other words, a meridian is an “energy highway” in the human body.
IMT modalities include:
IMT encourages comprehensive relief through relaxation, acute/chronic injury rehabilitation, somatic integration, pain management, PTSD recovery, emotional balance and overall body awareness.
Somatic Trauma Release (STR)
STR is an innovative form of bodywork that aim to relieve the symptoms of mental and physical trauma-related health problems by focusing on perceived body sensations (or somatic experiences).
STR balances the mind, body & spirit by working with the human condition on many conscious and subconscious levels. STR combines understanding of the physiological aspects of trauma with the somatic release of trauma from the body.
STR unravels the core fight or flight responses from shock trauma and developmental trauma.
STR uses acupressure and touch & somatic trigger exposure to help with PTSD, trauma, assault, rape & addiction, which helps bring peace from suffering.
