    *Manual therapy-focused care is not covered for out-of-network providers with limited exceptions. If you are hoping to focus your care on manual therapy, you will need to find an in-network provider. If you are hoping to receive your naturopathic care from me while continuing to also work with your PCP, your insurance will cover this level of care without issue. If occasional manual therapy treatment is warranted for a specific condition, it will be covered in the context of a regular medical visit.

      What is the difference between Medical Manual Therapy and CranioSacral Therapy?

  • Medical manual therapy visits are structurally oriented and used to identify and address physical restrictions in the body that are contributing to a specific pain/dysfunction diagnosis such as tension migraines, back pain associated with a structural issue, pain in a specific joint, or recovery after an injury. These visits are very focused on a specific area of the body and any direct structural connections to this area. They can be quite helpful especially when done in series. While not a full craniosacral therapy treatment, my manipulation style is craniosacral therapy inspired.

  • CranioSacral Therapy visits are more holistic and treat you as an entire person. They can deal with the physical components of chronic illness, trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and themes of self-realization. In these visits, we go beyond medical diagnosis and treatment to get to the root of long-term patterns. These visits are most often what people expect from a craniosacral therapy treatment, are the full expression of what craniosacral therapy is capable of, and are my preferred way to work with people.
