A body care session is a one-on-one hands on treatment sessions designed to address your most critical areas of pain and tightness that are limiting you from feeling your best.  We use a unique combination of cupping therapy, vibration therapy, and stretching to improve multiple areas of well being. 

Our body care sessions are designed for people over 18 who want to improve their recovery and mobility. Life, work, and play all place demands on the body that may create discomfort. Body care is one way to improve the way you way move and feel.  

This answer is unique for everyone depending on the amount of stress you are putting on your body, other recovery modalities you are using, and other life factors.  We typically recommend a minimum of once per month. up to two times per week. 

Our body care specialists are wellness professionals ranging from fitness coaches, to physical therapists and physical therapy assistants.  They are all internally trained by physical therapist and owner Dr. Nick Sanders on our unique body care systems as well as certified in the NeuroRelease Treatment model with Integrative Dry Needling.

Our model is a 1:1, patient guided treatment model meaning you will be directly involved in guiding areas to be treated, pressures, and intensities of stretch.

 If you prefer to omit any part of a session just notify your body care specialists.   Cupping is a fantastic treatment with very low risks. Our body care specialists will let you know if they do not believe cupping, stretching, or vibration is not appropriate for you.  

Some people are nervous about the bruising but it can also be done without bruising just notify your body care specialist if you do not want any bruises from the cupping. 

If you have an acute injury or new pain problem we recommend starting with a full pain evaluation with your doctor or one of our PHYT For Function Clinicians prior to starting body care.  Our Physical or Occupational Therapists at PHYT For Function will help evaluate your pain problem and determine what is the best step to getting you feeling your best.  Body Care specialists are NOT Physical Therapists and will NOT evaluate, diagnose, or make recommendations regarding a specific pain problem. 

Yes.  All sessions are one-on-one with a body care specialist and require an appointment.  All appointments can be made online at https://phyt.janeapp.com. 

We recommend wearing loose, athletic type clothing that will allow you to be stretched and moved.  If you want to include cupping in your session the cups must go directly on skin so wear something that allows access to painful areas.  For lower body sessions shorts.  For upper body sessions a loose fitting t-shirt, tank top, or sports bra.  All sessions are modestly done with clothing on. 

Currently we are offering Body Care Sessions at our Hudson, Twinsburg, and Boardman Locations.
