If so, you are not
alone. Most people experience this
type of “random” injury
at some point in their lives. And
usually it is not really random. It
is the result of bad movement habits,
which may even be due to a previous
sports or auto injury.
Bad posture and
other habits can cause reduced freedom
of movement, chronic pain, fatigue,
and even a loss of mental clarity.
In the long run,
these habits can force you to change
your lifestyle, and have a tremendous
impact on your overall health and
sense of well-being. And they can
be the root cause of other, even more
harmful, injuries and health problems.
Unfortunately, as
long as those habits continue, you
are likely to have more injuries and
chronic pain issues. And the chances
of truly healing any spine, joint
or muscle injuries goes down.
That’s
why at Linda's Center, the focus is
on getting to the root cause of your pain
first. Then learning ways to use your
body so you can reduce, or get rid
of, that pain forever.

of illness to one of achieving wellness.

The
Neurostructural Integration
Technique (NST) is considered
by many to be the world’s
leading structural and spinal
therapy technique for creating
lasting pain relief and
rejuvenation! NST is a remarkably
effective bodywork technique
that starts a process of
natural auto-regulation
in the spine and, as a result,
all the way through the
whole body.
The
result is a rapid elimination
or reduction of symptoms,
followed by an
|
|
|
|
|
unmistakable sense
of well being. NST can be an extremely effective,
and often miraculous, treatment for chronic
pain and other “untreatable”
health problems.

| You are surrounded
by and toxins every day. From the chemicals,
pesticides and preservatives in the food
you eat, to the exhaust fumes from your
car and the cleaning products you use around
the house. These toxins alone can actually
be the cause of chronic pain or illness,
or at least a part of the problem.
Unfortunately, your
body was never designed to handle all
of the toxins you are exposed to in modern
life. That’s where the Ion Cleanse
Foot Bath comes in.
This relaxing treatment
offers a safe, comfortable, drug-free
way to pull toxins out of your body, balance
your energy and normalize your pH. And
it can help you maintain high energy levels
and long term wellness. Ion Cleanse therapy
is widely used by athletes and those who
suffer from injuries, fibromyalgia, chronic
pain, fatigue, allergies, arthritis, and
heavy metal toxicity.

organs. The result is long lasting change
to the way your body feels, moves and functions. |

“If you know what you do, you can do what
you want.” Moshe Feldenkrais
Discover how easy it can be
to let go of bad posture.
The Feldenkrais Method helps
you realize exactly how you
use your body every day, in
everything that you do.
Maybe
you are not using your stomach
muscles to properly support
your trunk, so your head tilts
forward causing neck pain.
Perhaps the way you stand
is causing your hips to move
out of alignment, resulting
in chronic low back pain.

Whatever the problem,
this method was developed to help you discover
and shift habitual patterns, and fine-tune
your movements in a slow, gentle and guided
way.

Cranio-Sacral
Therapy (CST) is a gentle way of making
sure that the cerebrospinal fluid (the
fluid that surrounds and protects the
brain and spinal cord) is moving properly
throughout your system. Using a soft touch,
practitioners release restrictions and
improve the function of your central nervous
system. This helps all your body’s
systems function better, and assists your
body in clearing congestion and finding
dynamic balance.
CST is also being used more and more as
a preventive health measure thanks to
its ability to boost resistance to disease.
And it can be effective in treating a
wide variety of medical problems including:
Migraine Headaches, Chronic Neck and Back
Pain, Motor-Coordination Impairments,
Central Nervous System Disorders, Orthopedic
Problems, Traumatic Brain and Spinal Cord
Injuries, Scoliosis, Fibromyalgia and
other Connective-Tissue Disorders, Neurovascular
or Immune Disorders and Post-Surgical
Dysfunction. |

Reiki is a Japanese
touch technique for stress reduction and
relaxation that also promotes healing.
Much like acupuncture, Reiki is based
on the idea that an unseen "life
force energy" (also known as Qi—pronounced
“chee”) flows through us and
is what causes us to be alive.
If your Qi is low, then
you are more likely to get sick or feel
stress. If it is high, you are more capable
of being happy and healthy.
“Reiki sessions
cause patients to heal faster with less
pain," says Marilyn Vega, RN, a private-duty
nurse at the Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat
Hospital in New York. Reiki has also been
shown to improve mental attitude and reduce
the negative effects of medication and
other medical procedures. |

| Sometimes your
environment could be part of what is making
you sick. Maybe there are toxins in the
air, or you are being exposed to chemicals
or electromagnetic frequencies that are
unhealthy. Or it could be that very energy
of your home or office is unhealthy, and
making you more susceptible to illness and
chronic health problems.
If
you suspect your environment could be
part of what is making you feel unwell,
