Reset Muscle Coordination. Reset Lives. Your Bridge Back!

Is Bridging Right for You?

If you’re dealing with:

  • Chronic pain, stiffness, or mobility issues
  • Post-surgery or post-injury recovery challenges
  • Developmental movement delays (children & infants)
  • Frustration from treatments that haven’t worked

The Bridging® Technique addresses the root cause of pain and imbalance, offering a gentle, precise solution that goes beyond symptom management. BRIDGING resets your muscle coordination which had been disrupted by life’s injuries, stressors, and wear.

Then Bridging may be the missing piece.

How Bridging Works

No stretching. No adjustments. No exercises. Show up and let the Bridging team take it from there.

Bridging is a gentle, hands-on technique that targets the root cause of movement issues, pain, and dysfunction. Unlike traditional therapies that focus on isolated problems, Bridging® restores your whole-body coordination—unlocking movement, balance, and relief you never thought possible.

What is Bridging?

The Bridging Technique uniquely uses an engineering-based approach to problem-solve the ways your body should move. In just 2-3 sessions you have less pain, are calmer, more confident, and able to be more active! Here are the three steps used in the Bridging Process:

Assess:

Micromovements of the core and limbs are passively assessed for flow and ease of transition. These micromovements form in early life and are foundational to all daily movement skills.

Analyze:

Assessment results and the causes for the micromovement disruption—injury, illness, medical intervention, and early life/birth events—are analyzed to develop an optimal plan to reset affected muscle relationships.

Reset Muscle Memory:

Gentle rocking and microstretches are used to reset muscle coordination. The results are fast and long-lasting!

What does ‘Bridging’ mean?

From an engineering perspective, a bridge structurally connects two separate segments to make them continuous. In an electrical circuit, a bridge is used to convert an unstable electrical current into a continuous one. The Bridging Technique embodies both meanings when resetting movements.

How can I get started?

Step 1
Schedule your appointment
Step 2
Complete our intake information form
Step 3

Dress in comfortable clothing
It does not need to be athletic wear, but should be easy to move in. Expect to take your shoes off to help keep our floors clean, as we play with little ones here.

 
Step 4
In your session you can expect us to:
  • Keep things safe! Our assessment is limited to what you can do, especially if you aren’t mobile or stable.
  • Photograph simple postural positions.
  • Observe how you move.
  • Move your core and limbs passively to assess movement flow, transition, and symmetry.
  • Play, bounce, and dance with little ones as a way to observe and assess their movement.
  • Rock, wiggle and stretch to gently reset muscle memory.
Step 5

After your session

  • (No homework!) Enjoy moving naturally without home exercises.
  • Be active to reinforce the new muscle memory.
  • Follow-up with your next session in 3-5 weeks.
