Ep 55 Myofascial Release with Judy Rosevear-Pusey

Katie The Traveling Lactation Consultant

Bodywork is defined as a manual therapy, healing touch used holistically to increase wellness in a person. There are many wonderful kinds of bodywork- craniosacral therapy, chiropractic, osteopathic, myofascial and more. Judy Rosevear-Pusey has been practicing myofascial release therapy for over 30 years and teaches throughout the country. Katie and Judy discuss how bodywork helps newborns through adulthood, and how it helps with feeding.
Podcast Guest: Judy Rosevar-Pusey has been an Occupational Therapist for 50 years and has treated all ages and diagnoses. In 1989, she took her 1st Myofascial Release course from John F. Barnes, PT, learning more about the fascial system. Judy has since taken many Myofascial courses and teaches the Pediatric Myofascial course all over the country. In January 2017 Judy’s clinic began using a Balance Tutor as the first clinic in America with one. It has been highly successful in improving physical skills in individuals diagnosed with stroke, Parkinson’s Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer’s, Autistic Spectrum Disorder, and Sensory Processing Difficulties. The balance Tutor helps improve balance and proprioceptive awareness of where our body is in space. It also helps improve reaction time, reducing the possibility of serious injury when if we fall.
