Joint Instability
Labral tears can cause joint instability, cause pain, and leading to a feeling of weakness and vulnerability. At The Holistic Move, we understand your concerns and provide targeted treatment options to help stabilize your joints and restore confidence in your movements.
Limited Range of Motion
Labral tears can range of motion stiffness, making everyday activities challenging. Our experienced therapists specialize in techniques that reduce this stiffness and increased range of motion, allowing you to regain your freedom of movement.
Muscle Imbalances
Labral tears often lead to muscle imbalances, affecting your overall posture and movement patterns. Our expert therapists will work with you to rebalance your muscles, correct imbalances, and promote optimal biomechanics.
Emotional Distress
Dealing with chronic pain and limited mobility can take a toll on your mental well-being. At The Holistic Move, we offer a compassionate and supportive environment, ensuring that you receive not only physical healing but also emotional support throughout your journey to recovery.
PDTR is a specialized technique that focuses on stimulating specific proprioceptive receptors to restore proper proprioception and re-optimize muscle function. By activating deep tendon reflexes, this technique helps re-establish the communication between the nervous system and muscles, promoting stability, reducing pain, and aiding in the recovery of typical overuse injuries such as Labral Tears.

NKT is a cutting-edge technique that identifies and corrects faulty movement patterns by addressing muscle imbalances and dysfunctional movement compensations. By using manual muscle testing and precise corrective exercises, NKT aims to reprogram the neuro-muscular system, promoting pain relief, improved stability, and enhanced athletic performance through strengthening exercises for individuals with a torn labrum.
Our specialized sports massage therapy combines various manual therapy techniques, including deep tissue massage and Swedish massage, to target muscle imbalances, reduce tension, and enhance recovery. By addressing the specific needs of athletes and active individuals, this comprehensive approach promotes optimal healing, restores functionality, and boosts your shoulder’s resilience against repetitive use.

As an RMT, I will continue to offer high-quality therapeutic massage therapy treatments. In addition, with my additional education and training in functional neurology, I can offer patients an integrative approach that often has many longer-lasting benefits. Using a functional neurology-based therapy like P-DTR, we identify the movements that cause your symptoms, perform a specific treatment, retest the same movement after treatment, then provide you with the appropriate exercises for “homework” to solidify our results. Rest assured, I am also Certified and Licensed by the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario.
I often hear from my patients that they have tried nearly everything to resolve their issues or meet their fitness goals. Since every case is unique, this is why I have an initial assessment appointment for first timer visitors. It allows me to understand the problem better, ask the proper questions, and recommend the best treatment for your needs.
Labral Tear Massage is specifically tailored to your comfort level. While you may experience some discomfort during deeper tissue work, our therapists will always communicate with you and adjust the pressure to ensure a tolerable and effective treatment.
The number of sessions required varies depending on the severity of your torn labrum and your body’s response to treatment. Our therapists will develop a personalized treatment plan and provide a recommended session frequency based on your individual needs.
Labral Tear Massage can be a beneficial complementary treatment to support your recovery. While it may help alleviate symptoms and promote healing, it is important to consult with a medical professional to determine the most appropriate course of action for your specific condition.
The Holistic Move is under registered massage therapy, therefore extended health benefits with RMT will cover Labral Tear Massage. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to inquire about coverage options for registered massage therapy or consult with our knowledgeable staff who can assist you with insurance-related questions.
Rotator cuff tears and labral tears are both common shoulder injuries. While they can occur independently, there is a relationship between the two. The rotator cuff muscles stabilize the shoulder socket joint, and weakness or dysfunction in these muscles can put additional stress on the labrum. Likewise, when a lubrum is torn it can affect the stability of the shoulder joint, potentially increasing the risk of rotator cuff injuries. It’s important to address and treat both the rotator cuff and labral tear if they coexist to restore shoulder function and prevent further complications.
The relationship between cartilage and a torn labrum is that the labrum itself is a type of cartilage. A torn labrum refers to damage in the cartilage ring surrounding a joint, which can affect joint stability and function. Addressing a torn labrum involves interventions to restore the integrity of the labral cartilage and promote healing. Getting a specialized treatment at The Holistic Move is a good option for the healing of a torn labrum.
Labral Tear Massage sessions typically last between 60 to 90 minutes. This allows our therapists sufficient time to assess, address specific concerns, and provide a comprehensive treatment to promote optimal results.
