Welcome to Lisa Shelton LMT – a dedicated myofascial release and craniosacral therapy practice in Staunton, Va.
In short, Myofascial Release and craniosacral therapy allow you to get back in touch with you.
And for any healing practice, that’s a great place to start.

WHAT IS
Myofascial Release?
Fascia can tighten with physical and mental stress creating a soft tissue “straight jacket” in the words of John Barnes, PT.
To feel better, this straight jacket has to be released, layer by layer.
MYOFASCIAL RELEASE…
and Astrology?
Yes indeed! Fascia makes up the human energy field that surrounds your body. And the planets make up the field energy that your body must play in. Problems come about when we don’t use our energetic gifts . And those problems show up in the form of fascial restrictions, erratic behavior, poor sleep and digestion, anxiety, depression – just to name a few. Astrology is a tool to make you conscious of the energy flows around you. And most importantly, how you can utilize your own energetic blueprint productively in the midst of the cosmic changes. In short, astrology can guide you back into being the very best you. And THAT makes the body feel good.
IT’S HERE
BIOMAT
When you come in for a treatment session, your session is enhanced by the use of the Biomat. The Biomat is a US FDA approved class II medical device providing you with infrared heat and negative ion therapy.
The infrared heat penetrates deeply into the body, opening up blood flow and warming you from the inside out. With the improved circulation, your body is able to flush out inflammation and toxins. You’ll feel relaxed and mentally clearer.
WHAT IS
BEMER PEMF Technology?
Scientists and medical experts agree. Improving our circulatory health improves our wellbeing. When we increase the amount of blood flowing in our body, we aid the body in many ways. Increased blood flow helps in tissue repair and regeneration, removal of harmful toxins, improvement in mental focus and clarity – just to name of few!
And this in turn can lead to improved performance, vitality, strength, stress reduction and relaxation.
WHAT ARE
Myofascial Release and Craniosacral Therapy?
Myofascial release and Craniosacral therapy are hands on treatment techniques that seek to engage and open the fascial system.
The human body consists of an expansive fascial web. Fascia is the connective tissue that forms ligaments, tendons, outer coverings of organs, body cavities, membranes and cell walls. In short, if everything was taken out of the human body except for the fascia, we would have the perfect outline of you!
THINGS ARE GETTING STICKY
The body’s response to a stressed out mind
Stress is inevitable. But it is supposed to be short lived.
Myofascial Release takes time. The fascial system doesn’t respond to force, ringing phones, or busy schedules. Will power will help you resist chocolate cake, but does not soften fascia.
