What Is Restorative Bodywork?

 

Restorative Bodywork is an assessment-driven, multimodality approach to care that addresses pain, restriction, and imbalance by working with the body as a whole system. Rather than relying on a single technique, sessions are customized using a combination of approaches based on your needs and the practitioner’s advanced training and certifications.

This may include skilled manual therapy, nervous system regulation, movement awareness, and restorative strategies designed to help the body reorganize and return to balance. The focus is not just on where symptoms are felt, but on identifying contributing patterns and supporting meaningful change over time.

Because Restorative Bodywork adapts to both the individual and the practitioner providing the session, no two sessions look exactly the same.

 

​

A Multimodality Approach

 

Each Restorative Bodywork session is shaped by two things:

1. How your body presents through assessment and response to treatment

2. The advanced modalities the Licensed Massage Therapist is certified in

This allows care to remain holistic, flexible, and responsive rather than formulaic. While all sessions include hands-on bodywork, they may also incorporate nervous system support, movement-based strategies, or personalized self-care guidance when appropriate.

Restorative Bodywork is not physical therapy, but it is intentional, rehabilitative in spirit, and focused on restoring function, balance, and ease within the body.

with Heather

 

Heather’s Restorative Bodywork sessions emphasize a systems-based approach grounded in NeuroKinetic Therapy, orthopedic assessment, palpation, and movement analysis. Treatment often integrates Myoskeletal Therapy to address facilitated tissue patterns, along with therapeutic, neuro-based movement strategies designed to help the nervous system integrate change and support more efficient movement.
