Naprapathy

Restore Mobility. Relieve Pain. Reclaim Function.

 

Naprapathy is a clinically grounded, conservative approach to pain and movement dysfunction that focuses on one essential system: connective tissue, or fascia. At its core, naprapathy focuses on restoring what the body loses under stress, injury, poor posture, overuse, or compensation—freedom of movement, healthy circulation, and functional balance. 

The goal of naprapathic care is simple and powerful: to restore myofascial freedom, so your body can move, heal, and perform without pain holding it hostage.


Common Conditions Addressed with Naprapathy

Naprapathic Care Is Commonly Used to Support:

  • General health, wellness, and whole-body resilience

  • Connective tissue (fascia) health and mobility

  • Nervous system regulation and stress-related tension patterns

  • Neck, back, shoulder, and joint pain

  • Headaches and migraines

  • Sciatica and nerve irritation

  • TMJ and jaw tension

  • Post-surgical recovery

  • Sports injuries, overuse syndromes, and muscular imbalances

  • Carpal tunnel, tennis/golfer’s elbow, and IT band syndrome

  • Sprains, strains, spasms, and soft tissue injuries

  • Scoliosis and postural dysfunction

  • Achilles tendinitis and foot pain

  • Whiplash and accident-related injuries

  • Neuropathy and chronic tension patterns

  • Aches and pains associated with menopause and hormonal shifts


Who Naprapathy Is For:

Naprapathy is appropriate for individuals seeking a gentler, more conservative path to pain relief—especially before considering pharmaceuticals or surgical intervention.

This approach may be right for you if:

  • You work long hours sitting or standing

  • You live an active lifestyle and need greater mobility to keep moving

  • You’re recovering from injury or surgery

  • You’re an athlete or heavily into fitness or weightlifting and want to address overuse or performance limitations

  • You’ve tried multiple approaches and still feel discomfort or restriction

  • You prefer to avoid medications when possible

  • You want a complementary approach alongside care from your physician and other medical providers

  • You need guidance around nutrition, movement, and lifestyle to support healing

Naprapathy is about understanding why pain is there—and correcting the conditions that created it.  This thoughtful, fascia-focused, whole-body support is designed to help you move better and feel stronger.

“I'd heard of Dr. Poe for a couple of years, thru a mutual friend. (but didn't get around to it). Having read her new book, I felt she'd be the right health practitioner for me.
Today was my first appointment, and she tackled my cement-like shoulders, which have been chronically stiff for about 30 years.
They needed some Tough Love --- and it WAS tough! but I love the results --- I can actually look toward my left shoulder now!
Over the years, I've tried deep-tissue massage, chiropractic, and acupuncture, and while each gave temporary relief, none were ever as effective as one session today.
UPDATE: after 4 treatments, there is a huge improvement. My regular esthetician noticed the increased mobility in my neck and shoulder. That first treatment was --- not gonna lie --- "spicy"; I took ibuprofen. Each additional treatment is easier than the last, and needed nothing for pain.

Dr. Poe seeks to investigate the underlying root of a health problem, not simply treating the symptoms.

PS. Read her book, it's a great resource!” — M.D.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“I have been a patient of Dr. Kristen Poe for a few months now, and she is wonderful! She is helping me with low back and neck pain issues. She is a truly caring and compassionate person and her knowledge and expertise are clearly evident. I have seen how she understands the relationship of the back to other parts of the body and uses that knowledge to effectively treat the problem. I highly recommend Dr. Kristen Poe!” — P.H.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“What a gift Dr. Poe is to patients/clients. She listens, actively. She asks clarifying questions. She never patronizes and her physical assessment skills are spot on. I had an initial assessment and then a bodywork session with Dr. Poe and as someone who worked in healthcare for 35 years, she was awesome. Connective tissue is often not awarded the recognition and significance it deserves when dealing with chronic pain. I am looking forward to my next session. Thank you!” — B


What to Expect at Your Naprapathy Appointment

Your naprapathy visit is intentional, thorough, and grounded in precision. This is conservative, fascia-focused care designed to restore movement, circulation, and function while respecting your nervous system.

During your appointment, you can expect:

✨ Comprehensive Evaluation & Health History

We begin by reviewing your health history, pain patterns, lifestyle factors, and goals. This allows us to understand not just where you hurt, but why your body is compensating.

✨ Physical Assessment

A hands-on assessment of posture, movement, range of motion, and tissue quality to identify restrictions, imbalances, and areas of strain.

✨ Circulation & Tissue Prep

We start treatment using percussive tools to increase circulation and blood flow to the muscles, fascia, and connective tissue—preparing the body to respond more effectively to hands-on work.

✨ Gentle Naprapathic Manual Therapy

Using precise, gentle naprapathic techniques, we begin addressing fascial restrictions—referred to in naprapathy as ligatites—to restore mobility and reduce pain.

✨ No High-Velocity Adjustments

Naprapathy does not involve forceful snapping, cracking, or high-velocity thrusts. Treatment is calm, controlled, and intentionally gentle.

✨ Graston Technique® (Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization)

Graston Technique® is incorporated to restore fascial movement and tissue glide in ways the human hand cannot—allowing for deeper, more effective release when appropriate.

✨ Supportive Therapeutic Modalities

Depending on your needs, your session may also include heat, hot stones, cupping, and AcuStim to further reduce tension, support circulation, and enhance nervous system regulation.

That’s the Health Boss way 👑


What You Can Expect After Your First Naprapathic Visit

Most patients notice changes right away—both immediate and progressive—as the body begins to respond.

✨ Feeling looser, more mobile, and more flexible

Fascial restrictions begin to release, allowing movement to feel easier and less restricted.

✨ A sense of being re-energized or lighter

Improved circulation and nervous system regulation often leave patients feeling refreshed and more connected to their bodies.
