 About Tom

Tom is one of the most highly trained therapists in Alabama. He is a big believer in education and self improvement. He often attends workshops across the country as both a student and as a teaching assistant. He is constantly striving to learn the latest cutting edge scientific and neurological techniques in order to serve his clients. He is nationally certified in Therapeutic Massage, Neuromuscular Therapy, Structural Integration, and Active Isolated Stretching, Certifed Personal Trainer (NASM), and is a Master in Myoskeletal Alignment Techniques. Tom does not do regular massage or couples massage normally but sees clients who need a more therapeutic session so he developed Integrated Manual Therapy in order to provide his clients who have chronic pain and muscular problems a much more therapeutic session than basic massage.
Structural Integration is a deep tissue form of myofascial work which is very effective in loosening fascial restrictions. It is performed with little or no lotion and on top of the sheets. It is based on the work of Ida Rolf and is deep structural postural work.

The client wears shorts, sports bra, tube top, etc. It is not a relaxation massage but is very effective as it involves different positions (sidelying), active involvement by the client, and stretching. It is based on the principles of Ida Rolf and the principles of Rolfing and is more effective in returning the body to its natural balanced state than regular massage. Tom also is proficient in sports massage and stretching. The particular type of stretching he does is called Active Isolated Stretching. It was developed by Aaron Mattes who is known as the guru of stretching and is the most effective type of stretching program. Clients wear gym clothing to receive this. Athletes and people who love to work out will benefit greatly from both Structural Integration and Active Isolated Stretching. Tom has recently developed a new modality called Integrated Manual Therapy where he combines all of these techniques in a customized session unique to that individual.
