Leta is an intuitive bodyworker who is passionate about natural pain

relief and helping clients improve their health. Her journey with the

human body began in 2005 working with clients in an assisted living

environment. She then deepened her focus after moving to Salt Lake

City, by studying massage therapy and bodywork in 2006. After

obtaining national certification and licensure in 2007, she has

endeavored to learn and master modalities to assist clients in pain

management. Through bodywork she can help clients find relief from

chronic pain and inflammation and reduce stress. With a firm but gentle

approach, Leta strives to help her clients achieve deep relaxation and

alleviate tension within their body. With a more specific focus, she has

What is Neuromuscular Massage Therapy?

Neuromuscular Massage Therapy and Bodywork is understanding the body and brain work together in a complex system. The Therapist changes tension in connective tissue, eliminates trigger points and referring pain, and improves mood, function, brain/body balance.

This is anything but temporary.

So Many Tools and Techniques

SMRT-Spontaneous Muscle Release Therapy(TM): Positional releases that honor the brain and body by releasing chronically tense areas, and recruitment of chronically inhibited muscles.

PRRT- Pain Reflex Release Technique(TM): Addresses the autonomic nervous system with quick reflexive tapping that restores nervous system balance and eliminates pain.

AAT- Associative Awareness Technique and Sensory Flow(TM): By addressing the sensory processors of the skin, the neural pathways of safety are reinforced. The outcome is a profound release of stress, tension, and a renewed sense of calm and balance that has lasting effects.

MFR- Myofascial Release Therapy(TM): Slow and deliberate connective tissue manipulation to change the fascial matrix that impedes muscle movement, entraps nerves, and creates globalized/localized pain syndromes.

CranioSacral Therapy(TM)- Subtle changes in the rhythm of cerebral spinal fluid needed to flow and bathe the brain and spinal cord can become dysfunctional as a result of injury and illness. CST can restore the natural flow, resulting in reduced headaches, body aches, misalignments, and promote the body's ability to heal itself.

Reiki- by working with the body's subtle energy, this ancient technique is a safe and intuitive method of healing spirit, body, and mind.

ORB LIFE (TM) Products- See the ORB Life products page for info on infrared heat, PEMF-pulsed electromagnetic frequency mats, and more to heal the body from the cell to the skin.

ART- Acoustic resonance therapy. Can the treatment table make that much of a difference? If it has So Sound (TM) Pods that vibrate with music and sound, it does!
