Our Unique Approach

Eden’s Touch Therapy has a unique, non-conventional approach to healing.  Our therapists work primarily with the fascial system, which is one continuous structure that exists from head to toe without interruption.  It cover and penetrates every muscle, bone, nerve, artery, and vein, as well as all internal organ, including the brain.

Fascia has three components:

• Collagen:  a strong connective component
• Elastin:  an elastic element that allows a body to move
• Ground Matrix:  a gel that eliminates the friction caused by movement

A restriction in the fascial system is usually caused by the collagen balling up, which results in less movement in the elastin.  This causes the ground matrix to become sticky and hard.  Most therapeutic approaches work on releasing the “knots,” or the hardened ground matrix.  When only the knots are addressed, oftentimes the pain will reappear.  This is where our approach to working with the fascia differs from traditional therapy.  Instead of dealing with the symptoms, the knots, Eden’s Touch therapists release the balled-up collagen, the root of the problem, thereby giving lasting results.

 

Eden’s Touch Therapy Distinctions

Removing Trauma
Tissue cannot heal appropriately if ti contains trauma.  Tramua can be caused by physical, spiritual, or emotional events.  Your body stores these experiences which can then manifest as fascial restrictions, pain, disorders, or disease.  Our therapists look for, find, and remove trauma from your tissue, thereby allowing your tissue to heal.

Finding the Root Cause
The key to resolving pain is finding the root cause.  Quite often, the cause of the pain is not in the area of the pain.  Our therapists will skillfully find and gently work on the area that is the source of the pain, bringing lasting results.

Listening to Your Body
The body knows how to heal itself, but quite often it needs some facilitation for that healing to happen.  Our therapists listen and respond to whatever the body needs that day.
