SPECIALIZED BODY WORK

Naprapathic Medicine is a hands-on, holistic approach to treating pain, dysfunction, and movement limitations caused by imbalances in the body’s soft tissues—muscles, fascia, ligaments, and tendons. By addressing these structures directly, Naprapathy helps restore proper movement patterns, improve posture, and enhance overall function.

Patients often experience:

 • Decreased muscle and joint pain

 • Improved posture and movement efficiency

 • Faster recovery from training and injuries

 • Increased flexibility and mobility

 • Reduced risk of recurring pain or dysfunction

 • Better overall body performance in both daily life and athletics

Naprapathic treatments often integrate multiple techniques tailored to each patient’s needs, including:

 • Soft Tissue Therapy – Hands-on techniques to reduce tightness and improve muscle function

 • Postural Correction – Addressing imbalances and faulty movement patterns that contribute to pain and injury

 • Scraping (Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization) – Tools used to release adhesions and stimulate healing

 • Cupping Therapy – Negative pressure techniques to relieve tension, promote circulation, and speed recovery

 • Stretching & Mobility Work – Targeted methods to restore flexibility and prevent injuries

 • Corrective Exercise – Customized movements to reinforce treatment and maintain long-term results

Is Naprapathic / Specialized Body Work Safe for Everyone?

In most cases, yes! Naprapathic care and specialized body work are generally safe and well-tolerated for a wide range of people and fitness levels. The techniques are gentle and adaptable, focusing on restoring healthy movement, reducing tension, and supporting long-term musculoskeletal health.

However, every body is unique. Because sessions involve hands-on work with muscles, joints, and connective tissue, there are certain situations where modifications or medical clearance may be recommended. For example:

Recent surgeries or untreated injuries

Severe osteoporosis or bone fragility

Uncontrolled medical conditions (like infections, blood clots, or certain cardiovascular issues)

Pregnancy (sessions can often be safely adapted, but always check with your doctor)

At Brickz, your safety is our priority. Each session begins with a thorough intake to understand your health history and current needs. We’ll always tailor the techniques to you, and we encourage open communication during your session.

Absolutely! Let your Doctor know about any areas of concern, tension, or pain you'd like to focus on or avoid during the session.

Frequency depends on your goals and lifestyle. For general maintenance, once or twice a month is common. If you’re addressing chronic pain or recovering from an injury, more frequent sessions may be beneficial.

What Should You Wear for a Naprapathic / Specialized Body Work Session?

Comfort is key! You’ll want to wear clothing that allows you to move freely and gives your practitioner access to the areas being worked on without making you feel exposed.

Recommended:

Light, stretchy, or athletic wear such as leggings, joggers, or loose shorts

A comfortable T-shirt, tank top, or sports bra

Avoid bulky fabrics or stiff jeans that restrict movement

Minimal jewelry or accessories to keep the area clear

Depending on your session goals, your practitioner may need to work directly on the skin or over clothing. If skin contact is needed (for example, with certain manual therapy techniques), modest draping will always be used for your privacy and comfort.

It’s entirely up to you! Some clients prefer to relax in silence, while others may enjoy light conversation. Your doctor will follow your lead.

Gratuities are not required but are always appreciated as a way to thank your doctor for excellent service.

Please provide at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule. Late cancellations or no-shows may incur a fee.

Yes, many clients seek this type of therapy for specific musculoskeletal concerns. Because Naprapathic care focuses on relieving soft tissue restrictions, improving posture, and restoring mobility, it can often support people dealing with:

Chronic muscle tension or pain (neck, shoulders, back, hips)

Postural issues from desk work, repetitive strain, or injury

Joint stiffness or limited range of motion

Sports-related soreness or recovery needs

Headaches or tension caused by muscle tightness

Rehabilitation support after certain injuries (with doctor clearance)

Important Note: While this therapy can help manage symptoms and improve function, it is not a substitute for medical diagnosis or treatment. Clients with serious medical conditions (such as fractures, infections, blood clots, or other complex health issues) should consult their healthcare provider before starting care. Sessions are always adapted to your individual needs and health history.

If you have a specific condition, let your therapist know so they can tailor the session to your needs.
