How I Can Help You

Your body can only heal itself if it is provided the necessary means to correct the structure through managing emotions, nutrition, and with some structural rehabilitation from a skills practitioner.

Antonia opened the door to her own healing journey through nutrition, exploring the relationship between the body, emotions, healing, and energy. Drawn to the power and impact of nutrition on a person’s ability to bring the body back into harmony, she became a Nutritionist. Here are Antonia’s Services.

Osteopathy

Osteopathy is a therapeutic method based on a whole-body approach. This approach uses hands-on manual therapy techniques to regulate and balance the nervous, circulatory, and lymphatic systems, by strengthening the musculoskeletal system. The treatment goal is to ameliorate physical health by improving range of motion, correcting biomechanics, and balancing systemic function. Following a thorough evaluation and questionnaire, a treatment plan consisting of gentle hands-on techniques is used. Osteopaths have a high sense of touch that allows them to recognize and identify problem areas. Soft tissue stretching, deep tissue pressure, massage, and joint mobilization are used to help restore normal function to the muscle, joint, tissue and organ or systemic functions. Osteopathy is effective for a variety of illnesses, medical conditions, and injuries.

NST

NST (Neurostructural Integration Technique) is a soft tissue osteo-spinal system designed for efficient and effective removal of spinal and health conditions. “Due to its unique construction and application, NST creates a context within the neuromuscular fascial and sacro-occipital systems that ‘alerts’ the human organism to naturally return to its optimal point of balance or ‘homeostasis’.” -Dr. Michael Nixon-Livy, Founder of NST
NST is effective in cases of spinal and structural conditions including back pain, neck pain, conditions of the limbs (legs, arms, etc.), cranial and TMJ disorders, headaches, migraines, sports injuries, respiratory and digestive issues, menstrual conditions, chronic fatigue, emotional depression, scoliosis, and more. Most clients need between 1-5 treatments to achieve sustainable results for acute issues. For chronic long-term conditions, more treatments may be needed depending on the nature and extent of damage or strain on the osteo-spinal system.

Nutrition

Food contains vital energy, and balanced nutrition provides the basic elements required for your body to build, repair, and maintain health, and vitality. What we consume either provides energy to repair and heal, or taxes the body and the immune system, eventually resulting in discomfort and dis-ease.

There are six essential daily nutrients required to be consumed through dietary sources to maintain optimal health: vitamins, minerals, protein, fats, water, and carbohydrates. When in the correct balance, the body can function, when lacking the body begins to slowly go into a state of dysfunction causing the accumulation of toxins over time and ultimately leading to disease. Following a thorough evaluation, a diet plan is developed to help restore a healthy weight and dietary practice.

“If we could give every individual the right amount of nourishment and exercise, not too little and not too much, we would have found the safest way to health.” Hippocrates

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. Using a soft touch, practitioners release restrictions in the soft tissues. The brain and spinal cord make up the central nervous system. 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 the body endures stresses and strains that it must compensate for. Unfortunately, these changes can cause body tissues to tighten and then distort the craniosacral system. These distortions can then in turn 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. Craniosacral therapy tests 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 tissues, thereby allowing the systems to restore better function.

Weight Loss

Weight loss is a multi-billion-dollar industry. There are more products created, discovered, and marketed every day, yet many people are not able to lose the extra weight they are carrying nor do people feel any healthier. There are many contributing factors that prevent weight loss, such as, food and beverage choices, emotions, age, exercise, habits, lifestyle, and organ health.

As a Wholistic Nutritionist, Antonia has researched and tested many weight loss programs. With her knowledge and experience she has helped many of her clients lose unnecessary weight and maintain a balanced lifestyle.
