Soft/Deep Tissue Massage

Soft tissue mobilization (STM) is a way to address and treat the tissues that are affected by a current condition or process in the body. Both STM and deep tissue massage involve hands-on treatment resulting in improved blood flow, increased tissue extensibility, decreased tension, and often elimination of pain caused by muscular and fascial dysfunction.

Manipulation

Mobilization

Joint and spinal mobilization and manipulation are both hands-on treatments that help improve the functional mobility at a joint and spine. Joint mobility dysfunction can lead to inefficient movement patterns and compensatations which can lead to pain. Mobilization and Manipulation often enable more efficient movement patterns, improved range of motion, and restored symmetry in the body.

Therapeutic Stretching

Corrective Exercise

“Therapeutic” exercise, stretching and corrective exercises simply add specificity, purpose, and clear intent to these actions. Strengthening exercises, mobility exercises, stretches, and corrective exercises given at B2 are prescribed based on our clients’ specific needs. No two exercise programs given are the same because, well, every BODY is different.

Dry Needling

Dry needling is a modality performed by skilled Physical Therapists who have been certified through the completion of extensive continuing education courses post graduation. Dry needling uses a thin filiform needle to penetrate the skin and underlying tissues (fascia, muscles) in order to stimulate and treat underlying dysfunctions. Dry needling helps treat neuromusculoskeletal pain and improves function. Although Dry Needling is often confused with Acupuncture, they utilize different methodologies.

Contact B2 to see if Dry Needling is an available service in your state of residence.

Cupping

This modality utilizes the placement of cups with suction on areas of the body that are affected by pain or discomfort. Cupping facilitates muscle relaxation, decreased stiffness, and encourages blood flow to the involved tissues. At B2, we use this modality as an adjunct to deep tissue massage.

Recovery

In addition to all of the aforementioned services that facilitate recovery, we also provide Rapid Reboot Recovery System. Rapid Reboot provides dynamic compression using an inflatable garment in order to increase circulation to targeted tissues, relieve muscle soreness and discomfort, and help you recover more quickly following your workout!
