Pressing Matters uses Mechanotherapy (soft tissue manipulation) to move the body into the spaces that the body should occupy. We also employ Natural means (Whole foods and supplements) to allow patient bodies to come back into optimal health. We use the 1929 definition of Naturopathy in our practice “Diagnosis and practice of physiological, mechanical,
and material sciences of healing as follows: The physiological and mechanical sciences such as the mechanotherapy, articular manipulation, corrective and orthopedic gymnastics, neurotherapy, psychotherapy, hydrotherapy, and mineral baths, electrotherapy, thermotherapy, phototherapy, chromotherapy, vibrotherapy, thalmotherapy, and dietetics, which shall include the use of foods of such biochemical tissue-building products and cell salts as are found in the normal body; and the use of vegetal oils and dehydrated and pulverized fruits, flowers; seeds, barks, herbs, roots, and vegetables uncompounded and used in their natural state.”
