SET

SET (Structural Energetic Therapy) has been developed over 30 years by Don McCann and is constantly in a state of evolution.  

SET integrates myofascial restructuring, emotional energy release, acupressure, kinesiology and muscle testing, postural analysis, scar tissue and adhesion release, deep tissue therapy (see Deep Tissue Article) and rehabilitative massage.  

SET also incorporates Cranial/Structural Core Distortion Release techniques to initiate the unwinding of the core distortion pattern which facilitates the soft tissue releases. (See Cranial/Structural Article)

SET is a specific sequence of techniques applied to protocols that have been developed to release old structural patterns that cause specific painful conditions and dysfunction.  

The SET Therapist first addresses the primary area of discomfort using these protocols, and then releases any restrictions causing imbalances in the other areas of the body so the improved alignment is supported.  When this is accomplished, the whole structure supports balance and function, and maximum rehabilitation is achieved.

SET compliments standard medical treatments and chiropractic, both as a primary therapy and an adjunct therapy.

SET effectively treats multiple conditions: Upper body: carpal tunnel, neck pain, shoulder pain, tennis elbow, nerve entrapments, frozen shoulder, whiplash, headaches, trigger finger, TMJ, strains / sprains, herniated and bulging discs;  Lower body: back pain, sciatic pain, hip pain, knee pain, foot pain, plantar fascitis, heel spurs, strains /sprains, herniated ant bulging discs, nerve entrapments;  General conditions: tendonitis, surgical scars and adhesions, nerve entrapments, arthritis, osteoporosis, joint inflexibility, strains and muscle pulls, fibromyalgia, lupus, scoliosis, hiatal hernias, and more.
