Therapeutic Nervous System Reset

---

Session length: 60 minutes

Name: Therapeutic Nervous System Reset

Location: In-person at BodyWorks Therapy & Massage in Plano, TX

1. Brief Check-In (5–10 minutes)

We start with a short, structured verbal check-in:

• Current stress load and symptoms
• Sleep quality & energy levels
• Any recent triggers, medical changes, or new concerns

This helps us track patterns over time and tailor the work to the client’s nervous system that day.

2. Hands-On Nervous System Reset (Approx. 40–45 minutes)

The table work typically includes:

• Vagus Nerve Reset & Coherence Work
  Gentle contact at key access points (ears, neck and head) to support slower breathing, softening in the jaw, and a felt sense of safety. Dolphin Neurostim is used to reset the Vagus Nerve to 'Rest and Digest'. 

• Cranial & CNS Stress Relief Points
  Very light holds around the occiput, sacrum, and cranial base to encourage release in the central nervous system and deep relaxation.

• Optional Neck, Head, and Shoulder Work
  Light to moderate therapeutic massage for clients who carry stress “in their neck and shoulders,” kept within nervous-system friendly limits (this is not a deep tissue session).

All work is done fully clothed or draped to massage standards, depending on the client’s comfort and intake.

3. Integration & Exit (5–10 minutes)

We end with:

• A brief post-session check-in (changes in breathing, tension, pain, and emotional state)
• One or two simple at-home regulation practices (breath, gentle movements, or positioning, meditation suggestions) to extend the benefits
• If requested, a quick, high-level note that can be shared with their counselor (with written client consent)

Although this is a bodywork service, I structure it so it feels clinical, trackable, and repeatable for you and your clients.

We can track things like:

• Baseline & post-session stress levels (0–10 scale)
• Sleep quality (waking at night, trouble falling asleep, waking rested)
• Somatic symptoms (headaches, jaw tension, chest pressure, GI tension, etc.)
• Heart-coherence & “settling” speed – how quickly the client’s body drops into a calmer state during the session
• 
  

This information can be shared back to you (with the client’s permission) so you have another lens on their regulation over time.

Good fit clients:

• In active counseling for trauma, grief, burnout, anxiety, or chronic stress
• Whose bodies feel constantly “on alert,” hypervigilant, or shut down
• Who are open to gentle touch and somatic work
• Who want a non-invasive, supportive approach to help their system calm down

Not a great fit:

• Clients with untreated psychosis or active mania
• Clients who are not medically cleared for light bodywork or touch
• Individuals who are currently unsafe or in active crisis (they need emergency or higher-level care first)

If you’re unsure whether a client is appropriate, you’re welcome to reach out and consult with me first.

I keep the process simple and respectful of your clinical boundaries.

1. You share this page and my contact/booking info.
2. Client books directly and completes my intake form.
3. With client consent, I can send you a brief summary after:
   • The initial session
   • Every 3–6 sessions (or as requested)

For higher-need clients:

1. We set up a quick 5–10 minute phone or Zoom consult (no charge)
2. You share your goals for the client’s nervous system support
3. We decide together what cadence makes sense (e.g., 3–6 sessions over 6–8 weeks)

• I stay in my scope as an LMT and somatic nervous system practitioner.
• I don’t interpret or comment on your counseling work.
• I provide body-based observations and progress notes only when appropriate and with your client’s written consent.

Most counseling clients benefit from:

• Initial Phase: 3–6 weekly sessions to help shift the baseline
• Maintenance Phase: Monthly, Bi-Monthly or as-needed sessions to reinforce regulation and prevent burnout

Note: I’m happy to discuss a plan based on your treatment goals and your client’s capacity.
