| Practice Information |
Located in Bedford Commons in the heart of the Southern New Hampshire medical corridor, Manchester-Bedford Myoskeletal LLC is perfectly situated to receive patients from referring physicians in and residents of the Manchester, Bedford, and Nashua areas. We take self-referred patients and physician-referred patients as well.
We work with people with functional postural dysfunction. Our aim is to get people in to see us BEFORE they experience musculoskeletal pain in their everyday lives. Unfortunately, however, most people wait until they have pain, difficulty with range of motion, or some other troublesome complaint before seeking help. Oftentimes, people do not recognize why they have pain or relate it to musculoskeletal dysfunction, so they take muscle relaxers or some form of pain reliever to get them through the day.
Research shows that most body aches and pain is caused by dysfunction in the muscles or musculoskeletal system. Manchester-Bedford Myoskeletal uses advanced manual therapy techniques to resolve the tension between muscles and bones of the body and the brain stops receiving signals equating to pain and dysfunction. In other words, our techniques do not stop pain. Rather, they relax muscles which allow bones to return to proper alignment, and pain disappears.
In addition, we also work with patients requiring remedial bodywork for functionally-caused painful joints and range of motion problems. These may be due to injury or accident, overuse, repetitive use, pre- and post-surgical, muscle strain/sprain, etc.
M-B Myoskeletal is a small clinic, open by appointment only. |

| Bio: |
I've been doing massage for nearly thirty years on and off, although I finally attended formal schooling in 2004 in the Finger Lakes region of Upstate New York (Ithaca). Primarily, I've worked at sea on ships in the merchant service all my life and did massage when I was on my time off. In the late 1970's, while traveling in the Orient, acupressure picqued my interest and I found a talent in helping people with their everyday aches and pains. Combining this knowledge with another natural talent, massage, there was a great satisfaction in helping people feel better within themselves. As my seagoing career began winding down, I decided to attend school and become a licensed massage therapist as my second occupation.
I'm now licensed in New York and New Hampshire, am certified by the National Certification Board of Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB), and certified as an Advanced Myoskeletal Therapist by the Freedom From Pain Institute. Continuing education credit is mandated to improve my skills and keep my knowledge up to par and up to date. I'm fully licensed and insured. |
