  • Osteopathy

    Osteopathy is a gentle, hands-on therapy that considers the body as a whole.

    Manual osteopathy helps restore balance and supports the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Manual osteopaths view the body as an interconnected system — working with the bones, joints, viscera, and nervous system to promote overall harmony and function.

    Here is a non-exhaustive list of conditions and concerns that manual osteopathy can address:

    Musculoskeletal issues (joint pain, back and neck pain, post-traumatic pain)

    Digestive issues (constipation, diarrhea, bloating, discomfort)

    Urinary and gynecological issues (recurrent urinary infections, heavy or painful periods)

    Pulmonary and cardiovascular issues (asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia, arrhythmia, high blood pressure)

    Hormonal disorders

    Nervous system imbalances (stress, anxiety, sleep issues, headaches, post-concussion)

  • CranioSacral Therapy

    CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on approach that releases tensions deep in the body to relieve pain and dysfunction and improve whole-body health and performance.

    Few structures have as much influence over the body's ability to function properly as the brain and spinal cord that make up the central nervous system. And, the central nervous system is heavily influenced by the CranioSacral system - the membranes and fluid that surround, protect and nourish the brain and spinal cord.

    Every day your body endures stresses and strains that it must work to compensate for. Unfortunately, these changes often cause body tissues to tighten and distort the CranioSacral system. These distortions can then cause tension to form around the brain and spinal cord resulting in restrictions. This can create a barrier to the healthy performance of the central nervous system, and potentially every other system it interacts with.

    Fortunately, such restrictions can be detected and corrected using simple methods of touch. With a light touch, the CST practitioner uses his or her hands to evaluate the CranioSacral system by gently feeling various locations of the body to test for the ease of motion and rhythm of the cerebrospinal fluid pulsing around the brain and spinal cord. Soft-touch techniques are then used to release restrictions in any tissues influencing the CranioSacral system.

    By normalizing the environment around the brain and spinal cord and enhancing the body's ability to self-correct, CranioSacral Therapy is able to alleviate a wide variety of dysfunctions, from chronic pain and sports injuries to stroke and neurological impairment.

  • Somato Emotional Release

    SomatoEmotional Release is defined by Dr. John Upledger, the founder of CranioSacral Therapy as: the expression of emotion that, for reasons deemed appropriate by some part of the patient’s or client’s nonconscious, has been retained, suppressed and isolated within the soma.

    It is well-known in the world of CranioSacral Therapy that emotions trapped in body tissues can lead to pain and other ailments. Emotions have a powerful effect on our psyches, as well as our bodies. Positive/constructive emotions generate a sense of lightness and ease of movement. They can manifest as a desire to run, sing, smile and even dance. Negative/destructive emotions also generate body responses. They cause our shoulders to slump, our muscles to contract and our blood pressure to rise.

    When we experience sadness, anger, resentment, loneliness or sorrow, we feel it deeply. And because it hurts, we sometimes suppress those parts of ourselves to keep the pain from intensifying or spreading. Imbalances often occur when we resist an emotion and its natural path through the body. Resistance can cause an emotion to lock into body tissue, eventually leading to physical ailments.

    There are a variety of ways to release trapped emotions: journaling, talk therapy or even exercise. But the most reliable method of is SomatoEmotional Release (SER), that it was developed by Dr John E. Upledger. SER was designed specifically to release trapped emotions and allow the physical ailments that often accompany them to resolve naturally. The powerful results often include improved body functioning, loss of pain, greater mobility and more enjoyment of life.

  • Reiki & Energy Work - In Person & Virtual Available

    Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.

    The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy."

    A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. Many have reported miraculous results.

  • Fascial Stretch Therapy

    Fascial Stretch Therapy is a table-top assisted stretching modality that targets the body's connective tissue network as well as the joints. Incorporating well studied techniques such as proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitated (PNF) stretching and decompressive traction, fascial stretching can address mobility concerns, postural imbalances, & promote joint health in a pain-free way. Applied with intention, this modality is appropriate for a wide range of populations and applications - from optimizing sports performance to easing the effects of aging. Fascial stretching is typically administered to the client clothed in stretchy sports attire that allows for free movement using padded foam straps to keep the client secure to the table and comfortable during their session.

    We offer fascial stretching as a stand alone treatment (an excellent approach for regular maintenance of tissue and joint mobility) as well as an add-on with traditional massage to address concerns with more specificity. Give Fascial Stretch Therapy a try.

  • Lymphatic Drainage

    Lymphatic drainage is a world known therapy slowly coming to light and becoming more acknowledged for all its benefits. It is a light manual touch accessing the surface waters of the body and sometimes deep pressure to access the underground rivers of the human structure.

    The Lymphatic system is a core part of our immune system. It collects and reuses, helps to filter the waste that our body no longer needs or sees as foreign. Yet much like the venous system, our lymph system sometimes needs a little support. It can become sluggish by the stuff we consume, the stress we bear, the emotions that burden us or need some assistance by the sports we partake in, surgeries we need, conditions we’ve developed or have been born with as well as the nature of development through all the stages of life.

    As humans, our bodies are composed of 60% water, the most abundant element. So doesn't it make sense that whatever we do in our daily activities of life would affect the fluids in our body? And doesn’t it make sense to support the natural function of that system so that we feel revived, renewed and recovered?

    *Please note, we do not have a therapist that is certified to work with Lymphedema or Cancer patients, if this is your area of need please call or email the clinic and we can provide youwith a referral.*

  • TMJ Massage

    TMJ or the Temporomandibular Joint is the working mechanism that assists the muscles that help us chew. Not all TMD or Temporomandibular Dysfunction is directly related to the joint.

    Sometimes the muscles of mastication (chewing) can cause clenching or grinding, the pain we are feeling in the joint area, neck stiffness or the headache we are experiencing.

    With massage to the muscles either on the exterior or interior of our mouth, pain and often headaches can be relieved while also helping with the range of motion. Massage for the TMJ is not often painful yet pain can occur when the muscles haven’t been released and are over worked.

  • Acupuncture - CURRENTLY HIRING FOR THIS POSITION - please email to enquire info@banffwellnesspractice.com

    Traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture involves the insertion of ultra-thin needles through the skin and into the fascial network at specific points along the body. These points are a communication system along meridians or energy pathways that date back over 3000 years. Your acupuncturist may combine needling with fire cupping, Chinese massage techniques called tuina or moxibustion; which is the burning of an herb called mugwort, to address your individual and specific needs.

    Chinese medicine looks at the root cause of ailments and disease, and treats the individual, so not one treatment looks exactly alike, and it is beneficial for anything from physical aches and pains, to mental and emotional health, hormonal balance, metabolic conditions, and the list goes on.

    Acupuncture works on the nervous system by harmonizing or balancing the flow of what is deemed in eastern medicine as life force energy or Qi - pronounced “chee”. Qi exists not only within the human body but also makes up the entire natural world around us and is represented in all its forms by the seasons (5 in fact), and how they may affect our internal systems and the overall experience of our lives.
