In a category
all its own.
A remarkable, advanced technique that blends massage, manual therapy,
and Eastern energy healing, Hendrickson Method is a dynamic and effective
alternative to traditional therapies. The results are profound: significant
relief from pain, dramatically enhanced range of motion, improved athletic
performance, and extraordinary relaxation.
Named for its founder, the renowned Dr. Tom Hendrickson, Hendrickson
Method was developed during his 30 years of practice on over 100,000 patients.
At the heart of the therapy is wave mobilization®,
a completely new massage stroke that mimics an ocean wave and has healing
affects that penetrate deep within the body.
Benefits: Comfortable healing.
For everyone.
From infants to the elderly, nearly everyone can benefit from Hendrickson
Method. Even people in acute pain can experience improvement and relief.
This gentle therapy is comfortable to receive and can be done fully clothed
and without oil.

-

Advanced therapy for pain.
The joints and the surrounding soft tissue are the source of most pain
in the body. A unique feature of Hendrickson Method is that it provides
therapy to the joints as well as to muscles, tendons, and ligaments. It
stimulates tissues that restore fluid inside the joints, improves range
of motion, and promotes the growth of new cells. It helps strengthen weak
muscles, relaxes chronically tight muscles, reduces trigger points in
a pain-free way, and improves function in the nervous system.
Hendrickson Method is a system of functional rehabilitation. This means
that it addresses the source of the pain rather than just the symptoms.
And it provides long-term benefits because it helps bring the body back
to optimum function rather than just making symptoms go away temporarily.
