Services
Structural Energetic Therapy
Structural Energetic Therapy combines cranial techniques and myofascial restructuring to address chronic pain patterns. This advanced bodywork method treats structural imbalances caused by scar tissue and postural distortions. Clients receive personalized treatment plans targeting specific pain sources while restoring overall body alignment for lasting relief.
Neuromuscular Therapy
Neuromuscular Therapy focuses on eliminating pain through precise muscle manipulation and trigger point deactivation. This technique addresses nerve compression, postural distortions, and ischemic tissue conditions. Therapists use targeted pressure to release muscle tension patterns that contribute to chronic discomfort and restricted mobility.
Myofascial Release
Myofascial Release targets connective tissue restrictions that cause pain and limited range of motion. Therapists apply sustained pressure to release fascial adhesions from injuries or repetitive strain. This technique improves tissue elasticity and restores natural movement patterns throughout the body.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage addresses chronic muscle tension through focused manipulation of deeper tissue layers. Therapists use specific strokes to break down adhesions and realign muscle fibers. This treatment improves circulation, reduces inflammation, and promotes faster recovery from musculoskeletal injuries.
Sports Massage Therapy
Sports Massage Therapy enhances athletic performance and accelerates injury recovery through targeted techniques. This specialized treatment addresses sports-specific stress patterns, improves flexibility, and prevents future injuries. Therapists combine deep tissue work with stretching protocols to optimize physical conditioning for active individuals.

Jose does an amazing job. He listens to my concerns and thoroughly works those areas. I have Bursitus in my shoulder and tendinosis and have had restricted mobility. I have noticed vast improvement since working with Jose not only in my shoulder, but in my neck and back as well. I would highly recommend Jose and Creative Bodyworks.

I have acid reflux with a hiatal hernia. Gastroenterologist said I would need surgery for the hernia as my endoscopies showed my esophagitis was getting worse. He said visceral manipulation works for some, but you have to do it regularly. Opted to try this with Jose. Have been doing monthly visits since August 2021. Endoscopy yesterday showed my esophagitis was better, some areas of the duodenum have cleared of the previous inflammation, and my hiatal hernia which was medium sized is now small. Thanks, Jose!@

I've been seeing Jose for a couple of months and this is the first time I have felt relief in almost 10 years. The Structural Energetic Therapy sessions with Jose have absolutely changed my life. I could not recommend more.

Joel and Jose are both highly talented, skilled, and caring individuals that take pride in getting to know you as a patient to determine the best course of action for your healing. I came to them after going to the chiropractor, 3 different physical therapists and an orthopedic. I know I've been a complicated patient as I've ignored lower back and neck pain for many years until it took my quality of life away.

These gentlemen have decades of experience and it truly shows. Before I came to them I couldn't get through a full 18 holes without popping pain meds. Now I can play as much golf as I want, I'm back in the gym, hiking, water sports, and enjoying an active lifestyle. They truly have made a huge difference and I'm very grateful. I highly recommend giving them a chance to help you heal.

I have bursitis in my hip and have tried everything. Went through months of physical therapy, 2 series of cortisone shots and still no relief. A friend told me about her success with Joel's treatment, but I was reluctant to try it, as it was less traditional than I was used to. All it took was ONE visit and I knew I was going to see success. With each visit, my pain decreased and my mobility began to improve. After only a few months, my lifestyle has returned to normal. Walking long distances, and running after grandchildren! Thank you, Joel! I truly can't say enough about how you've helped me.

Wonderful all around! I am now pain free! I had a shoulder impingement diagnosis. I received a cortisone shot from my doctor and recommended 6 weeks of physical therapy. I unfortunately received no relief from either. I had two sessions here where we focused specifically on my neck, shoulders and back muscles. By the end of the second session, I was pain free! Very professional, very clean, communication was great. I highly recommend them!
