Testimonials

Celina has worked her magic on me on for almost 10 years. I suffered from frozen shoulder – both shoulders, separate times. There was immediate progress and increased range of motion. Now, no one would ever know that I ever had any trouble with my shoulders. I continue to see Celina for various reasons, sometimes just to treat the creaks and pains of getting older, sometimes just because it feels amazing! Celina provides my happy place where the rest of the world melts away and I leave feeling relaxed and with the benefit of healing.

One of my ongoing issues has been lack of movement and range of motion in the left elbow. On my first visit with Celina, she worked on the elbow through pressure points within the arm. I noticed a big difference. She continued to work on the elbow as well as the tightness in my hamstrings. I’ve been seeing Celina for 2 1/2 to 3 years now. The visits are not as frequent. I go for a body tune-up or if I have an injury that needs some attention. Give Celina a call. Less stress, less ailments make for a happier being. You owe it to yourself.

The first time I saw Celina was for shoulder pain, or so I thought. The Osteopathic techniques she used are so gentle that it feels more like holding and pressing areas than the massage I was used to in the past. When she was done and I stood up, I realized, how stiff and restricted my ankles, hips and pelvis were prior to her work. What started as shoulder pain ended in total body alignment and relaxation. I left the office with more movement and flexibility in areas I didn’t even realize were restricted, in addition to relief of the shoulder pain. As an acupuncturist, Celina is the main person I refer and trust my patients to for bodywork. I am thankful for her expert hands and highly recommend her services.

I visited Celina upon experiencing severe pain in my neck, shoulder and back from an aggravated long-term work related injury. I first went to my personal physician who offered muscle relaxants and not much else. Needless to say, the medicine did nothing to relieve my pain. Celina took the time to find out my medical history before beginning any work. After our first session I felt a lot of relief and was finally able to get a good night’s sleep. I saw Celina for four visits and had no sign of lingering pain. I was amazed at how quick and effective her treatment was for me. In the past it took me 6 months of physical therapy for full recovery. In addition to the PT I have also experienced many therapists and none have been more skillful than Celina.

I went to Celina with chronic pain in my heel and shoulder. Over a series of weekly treatments, the pain resolved and has not returned. In addition, the type of work that Celina does has positively impacted my body as a whole in that I feel more resilient to life’s stressors in general. I felt as though Celina’s work affected me energetically as well as physically, like a good acupuncture treatment does. The treatments tapped deeply into my nervous system to integrate parts of my body that I didn’t even realize were out of alignment.

Healing Pain and Injury

Posted by Celina in Healing, Injury, Pain, Self Care

Healing Pain and Injury Celina Trevino It seems fitting that my first blog is about the timely release of the book, Healing Pain and Injury by Maud Nerman, D.O. Maud is a Doctor of Osteopathy who does OMM: Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine. This means she uses her hands to manipulate the body as a form of medicine. This is a book mostly about Osteopathy, and how it can be used to bring you back to health. She is also a homeopath and details how Homeopathy is an excellent tool to aid in restoring health. My hope is that this information can provide the missing link to your health ills and empower you to take charge of your health.

Structure and function are reciprocally interrelated at all levels, down to the cellular. This is one of the four osteopathic principles. This concept is understood and accepted when it comes to engineering and design of…everything. It also applies to what I think is the most magnificent design: the human animal. The structure of your body has everything to do with how it functions. Most people understand that when an organ is depleted of blood supply, gangrene can set in and the organ can die, causing death. It’s hard for most people to think about what would happen when blood supply or venous drainage of an organ is compromised. Think of a kink in a hose that limits the amount of water coming through but not cutting it off completely. When the same happens to blood and lymphatic vessels or nerves, this limits the nutrition and detoxification of an organ, which would result in decreased or suboptimal function. Why would that happen? Injury and trauma, surgeries, malnutrition and suboptimal postures are a few. What is the solution, then?

Perhaps you or your loved ones had an accident and symptoms pop up, only to be told, “We can’t find anything wrong with you.” Even though it may be clear to you that problems started after your accident, have you then been given a prescription for drugs as if that is the only solution?

Dr. Nerman details in her book how she treats a person and why. She covers injury shock, which happens after all types of trauma, taming inflammation in the body and restoring motion to different key areas of the body. Also detailed is a chapter on brain injury and how Osteopathy can be used to fill the gap needed for treatment. Other gems of the book are the self-help exercises for breathing and restoring motion to the body. My wish is that this book will help connect dots for you and supply answers about your amazing body, mind and spirit. My guess is this kind of information about how your body works makes sense to you, intuitively. Wherever you are on your health journey, this book has much to teach. Your body is (to say the least) a magnificent machine, that when given the right conditions, can and does heal.
