Are You Looking
For A Relaxing Massage to Eliminate Stress?
Then You Have Come
to The Right Place! |
Welcome to EastWest
Healing and Performance Massage Therapy. We are a holistic exercise,
nutrition and lifestyle coaching company in the North SD
county area. We offer many services, but only one type
of manual therapy. This type is called Neuromuscular
Therapy or NMT. Being a Reg./Lic. Occupational
Therapist, NMT and Masters Student of Chinese Medicine
creates a great recipe for success when helping clients
to help themselves.
EastWest Healing &
Performance offers relaxing, Therapeutic Massage to
Cupping at our quaint and peaceful setting in Vista,
California (North San Diego County). Whether you want to
wipe out that stress and tension, or are looking to
eliminate those aches and pains, we can help...
In addition to
Massage, we give nutrition and lifestyle phone
consultations all over the U.S.
Neuromuscular Therapy
NMT is a structurally integrative
approach to pain relief. The method is based on finding
improper structural and biomechanical patterns in the
patient's body. In order to find these improper
patterns, Josh uses many physical assessments to analyze
and chart dysfunctional postural/neurological patterns.
Once these patterns are analyzed a comprehensive program
is designed to guide the client through the five stages
of rehabilitation:
1. Eliminate muscle spasm
(inhibition)
2. Restore flexibility (length-tensions)
3. Restore proper biomechanics (active-isolate)
4. Increase muscle strength (active-dynamic)
5. Increase muscular endurance (dynamic)
Our purpose is to not only to
eliminate the pain (symptoms), but we treat the person
as well. Our goal is to educate the patient on ways of
prevention through movement, flexibility, nutrition and
lifestyle education.
NMT analyzes the soft tissue
causes of pain and creates individualized treatment
plans according to the patient's needs, wants and
desires. According to recent research approximately 90%
of pain symptoms are considered idiopathic, which means
there is no known cause of (Paul St. John). NMT is a way
to analyze and thoroughly explore the muscles, tendons,
ligaments and nerves in order to find these hidden
sources of pain.
Restoring proper structure,
biomechanics and the neurological pathways not only
alleviates/eliminates pain, but can positively affect a
variety of physiological and psychological conditions.
Wolff's law states "form follows function and functions
follows form." Thus, a dysfunction of or distortion of
posture is often correlated with improper function,
movement, physiological and / or psychological activity.
For example, a slouching posture can decrease digestive
function or create a trigger point (referral of pain)
into the ear can effect hearing or balance. This can all
be from poor posture, poor thinking, moving incorrectly
in society, trigger points in an organ, etc. When proper
structure is restored to the body, the accompanying
physiological problems are often alleviated.

What
Do We Treat?
Whether a patient comes in with
muscular (trigger point, tight muscles,
tennis/golfers elbow, etc.) nerve (carpel tunnel,
compression or adhesion of nerve to bone and/or
muscles), or bone (spondylolisthesis, spondilolysis,
etc) dysfunction, the first thing we will do is an
evaluation of the entire body. The body is an
integrated unit and each part affects the other part
that is above or below. If one part of the body is
injured or shifted, the other parts compensate or
shift to pick up the slack, put you back in
alignment, or shift to protect you. We have found
many patients with headache patterns, neck, back
and/or shoulder pain that began in their hipes and
many foot pains that are perpetuated by altered
biomechanics in the upper extremities. If we just
look at just one part of the body where the patient
is actually feeling the pain, we would end up just
treating the symptom rather then addressing the root
cause. This course of treatment leads to some
temporary improvement but with no lasting results.
At EastWest Healing and Performance Massage, our goal is to
treat the person that has the disease, not the
disease that has the person. Utilizing this whole
body approach our center has successfully treated:
-
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
-
Disc Herniations
-
Back Pain
-
Whiplash Injuries
-
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
-
Frozen Shoulder
-
Tennis/Golfer's Elbow
-
Breathing Difficulties
-
Migraine Headaches
-
Sciatica
-
Fibromyalgia
-
Plantar Fasciitis
-

Hip Pain

"I injured myself in 2002 while doing an intense
workout program. I was left with great pain due
to two torn and bulging discs, as well as other
issues. The pain was completely disabling at
times. Simple things like getting dressed were
just about impossible. I tried everything
"traditional," none of which helped, some of
which made me worse. My doctor sent me for
surgical opinions, and although each surgeon I
saw was more than willing to operate on me, it
just didn't feel right. I did other things, like
"postural therapy," which helped me in a very
limited way. I was still, however, unable to sit
for any length of time without great pain, which
is difficult to deal with since I sit all day at
work and am also completing a doctoral
dissertation which requires lots of time sitting
at a computer.
About 6 weeks ago I started working with Josh
Rubin. I'd had some setbacks with the postural
therapy I'd been doing (it seemed to be making
me worse) and the pain was intolerable. Within a
very short time of working with Josh and
incorporating his suggestions, I could tolerate
sitting for several hours with little or no pain
for the first time in over 3 years. Actually,
after my first session with Josh I had a period
of about an hour with zero pain - I couldn't
believe it! I'd never expected to be pain-free
again, so this really showed me I was on the
right track. I can now make it through the
workday more easily, and some days I don't even
take any pain medicine.
I can't say enough good things about Josh. He's
helpful, smart, easygoing, and great to work
with. Particularly after the frustrations of
dealing with doctors who couldn't do anything
for me and didn't seem to have any ideas other
than surgery (!) it has been awesome to find
Josh. I finally feel hopeful that I can manage
my back issues and I know over time with
continued work my situation will improve."
