Do you have pain in your body that migrates? Are you suffering from multiple diagnosis and they are not sure what to tell you except to have medications, injections and surgery? Are you getting nowhere with your symptoms and confused about what will bring you lasting pain relief, take down the inflammation and help you get back to living your best life? 

My name is Angela Rose and I am an Injury Specialist and a Myofascial Release Therapist, I practice Presence Centered Awareness Therapy in sessions to facilitate healing through presence.

I had a client come in with a Pleural Effusion, it’s a wrapping membrane around the lungs and it has been filling with fluid. He has had pain in his hip that has bothered him for some time. He has a strong tension in his thoracic region from his hips to his upper back. The amount of tension in a torque called torsion is putting significant pressure on his lungs.

His head is bent forward in kyphosis and he has a hard time breathing. This twist from his hips to the upper thoracic spine separates the left from the right, they look like two different bodies on each side of the body. One side is moving forward and the other is moving back.

He also has a membrane of fluid around the knee, with pain there too. He is interested in healing and pain relief, the doctors didn’t have a solution for his diagnosis and told him he would need to live with the symptoms, and that it should pass eventually.

He has had five sessions, at the beginning his pain level was a 7. From the first treatment he reported a flush of pain after treatment followed by no pain until the following day and up until the time of the next treatment.

His swelling is subsiding in the area around the lungs and the knee, and the fluid has decreased by almost half. He is responsive to treatment and deeply relaxed after sessions.

After his fourth session he reported having no pain and is happy to say he’s feeling pain free from treatment.

The torsion: the pressure created by the twist in his mid section has significantly decreased, the sides of his body are evening out and the tissue in his abdomen and lower back are less hardened and inflamed and more pliable with healthy tone and blood flow returning.

He has less kyphosis. His head was not able to touch the table at the beginning of sessions and he needed a thick pillow to be comfortable and after the 5th session he was able to touch the back of his head to the table without the neck lifting the head up. He has found significant relief.

I feel so grateful to help people to get out of pain and back to doing what brings them joy.

Myofascial Release gets my clients the best results, results I have not seen with any other therapy. This paired with the presence work helps to free the issues from the tissues.
