Energy Kinisiology
A holistic approach used to restore optimum physical and mental health. Muscle testing is used to evaluate the function of glands, organs and central nervous system to determine the underlying causes of health problems. Modalities such as acupressure, cranial points, sounds therapy and lymphatic drainage are used to restore proper function of nervous system and immune system to allow the body to regulate its own health.

Psychotherapy
Dr. Davenport enjoys empowering others to realize their personal goals. She works with adults from ages 18 and up on a variety of concerns.

Dr. Davenport's therapeutic style draws from cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused models, and she incorporates mindfulness and hypnosis where appropriate.


More on Massage Therapy
Deep Tissue Massage
A Massage Therapy modality that releases the chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow strokes and deep finger, forearm and elbow pressure on the contracted areas. Separates muscle groups and loosens connective tissue encouraging greater range of motion and pain relief. This technique addresses the deeper layers of muscle tissue.

Swedish Massage
Five different tools are used in Swedish to relieve tension, improve circulation and provide overall relaxation. These tools are: long strokes, kneading, deep circular movements, percussion and vibration.

Sports Massage
A deep muscle and tissue technique that focuses on muscle groups used in athletic activity. Effective in preventing injury or aiding in treating an existing problem. Typically used before, and/or after athletic purpose, to prepare athlete for peak performance and to drain away fatigue and lactic acid build up.

Pre-Natal Massage
Pregnancy massage has been found to reduce stress, decrease swelling in the arms and legs, and relieve aches and pains in muscles and joints. It's a popular complementary therapy during pregnancy for back pain, when choices for pain relief, such as medication, are often limited. Not only can massage be physically beneficial, but the human touch can be comforting and provide emotional support during pregnancy.
