Debbie Uhl, LMT, has been treating clients in NE Ohio since 2011. Prior to that, she was based in Denver, CO, where she became a certified massage therapist in 2006. She has studied a variety of massage therapy modalities since then, and integrated various techniques to best address the needs of each client.
Her main focus, since 2022, is providing clients with The Gillespie Approach - Craniosacral Fascial Therapy. She is currently a practitioner for adults and children. She will provide CFT for infants beginning in late 2023. Debbie utilizes massage therapy, as needed, in between CFT treatments to further address fascial restrictions.
CFT is based on over 30 years of research by Dr. Barry Gillespie. It gently combines myfascial release and craniosacral therapy to help the soft tissue release chronic strain patterns that stress/injury/birth trauma/PTSD/oral ties/surgeries, etc. have negatively had on the nervous sytem. These strain patterns can limit function and cause various health conditions throughout life. CFT works to gently restore the facsial web and promote the flow of cerebral spinal fluid to all areas, helping the body heal itself. It helps address a wide variety of health conditions and is appropriate for all ages, especially newborns, to establish a freely-moving fascial web so the effects of trauma no longer restrict overall wellbeing.
