Mechanical Link
|
|
Developed in the late ’70s by French osteopath Paul
Chauffour, Mechanical Link is a gentle manual therapy that encourages the balance of
tensions in the fascial system — that complex web of tissue that interconnects and
affects all other body systems. It spreads throughout the body uninterrupted, providing
physical stability while also allowing flexibility and mobility.
Think of the fascial network as a spider web. Imagine what happens if one area of the web
is pinched or tightened: everything else distorts. The body compensates for physiological
or traumatic stress in much the same way — by producing patterns of tension called
lesions that affect the entire structure.
These patterns are intended to relieve pain and disability and protect the body
from further stresses. Yet the long-term effects of such compensation can prove
debilitating.
Mechanical Link therapy is guided by the body’s own wisdom about its unique needs.
The work stimulates to the body’s self-corrective responses, promoting normal
mobility, tissue tone and posture. Mechanical Link brings tension into equilibrium
and allows the body to return to optimal functioning ability, so all its systems can
improve — including the immune system.
Mechanical Link helps alleviate a range of illness, pain and dysfunction, including:
- Fibromyalgia
- Indigestion
- Migraine Headaches
- Premenstrual Syndrome
- Asthma
- Chronic Fatigue
- Motor-Coordination Impairments
- Chronic Neck and Back Pain
