Sanctus Bodywork Studio · Woodbridge, VA
You may still be doing everything you need to do, but with more effort. You turn your whole body to look behind you. You avoid reaching overhead. You feel stiff after a drive or a day at work.
At Sanctus, Carol starts with those specific limitations and what they mean to you.

Connective tissue surrounds and supports structures throughout the body. Carol uses hands-on techniques to work with the soft tissues involved in how you move and hold yourself.
Sessions are tailored to your history, areas of tension, and comfort. The work may involve different positions on the table and attention to areas beyond the place where you first noticed a restriction.
The purpose of a session is practical: to work toward more comfortable movement in the activities that matter to you.
These concerns can have different causes. The first conversation helps establish whether bodywork is an appropriate option and what information Carol needs before scheduling.
Tell Carol when you notice the limitation, what makes it more noticeable, and what you have already tried. A useful starting point might be: “I want to sit through a rehearsal more comfortably” or “My hips feel stiff every time I get out of the car.”
Your feedback during the session helps guide positioning, pressure, and the focus of the work. You can ask questions or request a change at any time.
At Sanctus, the conversation and hands-on work center on your particular concerns and movement goals. Sessions are performed clothed and do not use oils or lotions.
Carol draws on several approaches rather than giving every client the same sequence. You do not need to choose a technique before contacting her.
Text Carol with a brief introduction and the activity or movement you would like to discuss.
