F.A.T. Technique

No this technique has nothing to do with fat like we think of it.  It is the Fascial Abrasion Technique and it is rockin' our socks of here at Agape.  This is a new technique we added to our tool bag end of last year, and we are having some AMAZING results with it.  We use it has part of therapy, but it can be a treatment all it's own.  In fact, some patients/clients are requesting to come in and do just F.A.T.
The principle is that by the make up of the tool and a special warming balm, added with the oscillating technique of your tissue results in your fascia melting and reducing soft tissue and joint restriction.  There is a ton of research coming out about the huge role fascia plays in musculoskeletal health and we are believing with the great results we have with this approach. 
If you want to come in and get a F.A.T. treatment itself it's a $1 minute.  Letting go of tissue takes less time than a massage so we can get through quite a bit of tissue in a short amount of time!  Give it a try and feel great.

Bethany had a baby!

On Friday, Bethany had little Lila Kay born at 10:2am and was 5# 15.75 oz. and 18" long! We are so excited for her family and of course the extended addition of the Agape Family.
