The key to healing, the premise or philosophy that guides us is that the body…your body is doing the best it can do at any moment. Even if you’re dealing with chronic pain, running & sports injuries, autoimmune or other chronic illnesses…..
Your body is doing it’s best to heal and protect you….. so what is going on when someone has a pain or condition that persists even with great massage therapy, chiropractic or osteopathic manipulations or detox or diet changes….?
You can think of it like your car and the Check Engine Light comes on…. That’s like the symptom. The chronic knee pain or hip pain or back pain… that’s the chronic fatigue or all over body pains or insomnia…
We want that to go away… to heal but you wouldn’t just put blackout tape over the dashboard of your car to not see the Check Engine Light or cut the wire or disconnect the light (like meds or surgery to just mask or manage the symptoms).
Actually most people do just mask symptoms or try and force a healing like a deep massage or a chiropractic manipulation or a stretch or exercise….
Of course we want the symptom to go away… we want the Check Engine light to not blink on anymore…. We don’t want the chronic pain or illness symptoms… we just want to get back to running and walking and living without pain….
But… what if we could find the actual cause?…. again kinda like the car and Check Engine Light…. what if we could find why the light is on… fix that up… the light automatically turns off and the car works again….?
Here’s the premise or underlying principle of Integrative Manual Therapy….this Beyond Limits Physical Therapy way of healing….
Your body will protect you … and it’s very smart…
It has a hierarchy of protection. This means the body will protect vital structures. The body will protect muscles and joints… and it will protect arteries and organs even more strongly… it will also protect us from deep emotional or spiritual pain. Heart sadness is real and deep grief and despair is something the body will protect you from….
And the protection may look like a physical heart problem or an asthma or allergy problem….
This is why treatments and procedures just designed to lower symptoms… or as they say in the medical world, to manage it will do just that… manage it but not heal it up.
So with IMT or integrative manual therapy we have a mapping assessment where I can in-person or over zoom map out the 1° causes… Then we have specific techniques and processes to help the body heal that…. When your body heals 1° root cause it does not have to protect you anymore from this root cause and your body heals naturally.
We’re not trying to fix the body…we’re setting up processes so you body naturally heals at the root cause level.
If you want to heal… if you want to do this… reach out and we can see what is in the way of your healing…
You can get your health and life back and live how you want to live.
As this happens you can think, “what do you want?” … because you can achieve it… and enjoy your life.
to your health and healing,

ps: each Thursday if you are in Fairhaven, Bellingham WA we do a FREE Injury Treatment Clinic where I can map out what’s at the root cause for you, do short demo sessions and give you specific healing processes to do to help you with your healing.
and if you’re not local reach out and we can get a time for you over zoom and I can let you know what the mapping shows as your 1° root cause.
