VOICE & VOCAL CORDS
"I am a recording artist and have been performing professionally since I was a young girl. My voice is how I make my living. I went through a surgery recently and had to be put under general anesthesia. Ten days later I went into the recording studio and sang for a new project. I could tell my voice was simply not 100%. It was determined that my vocal cords were healthy and there was no lasting effect from the anesthesia. My doctor suggested massage. I have gone to Rebecca Saindon several times for other issues but this time she wanted to focus on the muscles in my neck and specifically around the larynx. This was definitely a new experience. After just two sessions my voice became stronger and the muscle tension decreased dramatically. She did an incredible job and I would highly recommend her for singers or those who use their voices frequently in their professions. ~Elizabeth Montgomery
BENIGN POSTURAL VERTIGO/DIZZINESS
"I woke up one morning with the room spinning every time I rolled over in bed or tried to sit up. Rebecca Saindon, my neuromuscular massage therapist in Nashville, commented that it might be benign positional vertigo and suggested I see my doctor for an evaluation. Sure enough the doctor's diagnosis was BPV. Rebecca did a simple maneuver to correct the position of some dislodged crystals in my inner ear and I did a homework version of the same. It only took a few minutes. The dizziness was immediately gone and has not returned." (client name withheld by request)
"Rebecca helped me tremendously with my vertigo. I was unable to get out of bed without being dizzy. After one session and doing the exercise she gave me at home, I am no longer dizzy." ~Kat Corbitt, Vanderbilt
"My world was constantly in motion. When I sat, my horizon was always shifting and when I walked, nothing around me stayed steady. Riding on an escalator made me dizzy; if I looked up or turned over in bed, my brain went into a sickening spin. I had benign paroxysmal positional vertigo but I felt like I was living in a washing machine - on spin cycle. Then Rebecca Saindon gently and expertly guided me through the Eppley maneuver. Bingo! My world is back to its usual pace. I've climbed out of the washer. Thanks, Rebecca ! ~Ginna P., Artist
GENERAL MALAISE / FIBROMYALGIA
"Following a critical case of chronic meningo-encephalitis, I experienced numbness and heaviness of the extremities, ataxia, severe low back and shoulder pain. My physician thought Neuromuscular Massage Therapy would be beneficial and he was joined by another health care professional in recommending Rebecca Saindon at the Nashville Neuromuscular Center. I have found Ms. Saindon to be a consummate professional with the client's well-being her primary consideration. I firmly believe Ms. Saindon has been an integral part of my recovery. I no longer require prescription medications to control the pain. The ataxia has almost completely resolved and I have a much greater range of motion. When I went back to work after two years absence, she consulted with my company regarding the ergo dynamics of my work station. Based on her recommendations, they made some simple changes that benefited me immediately and significantly reduced the pain in my shoulders. Ms. Saindon set goals with me, educated me, and allowed me to participate in my therapy. To someone who had been extremely active and independent before becoming totally dependent, the participation and sense of control were especially beneficial emotionally. Ms. Saindon has unquestioned integrity and is an outstanding representative of her profession."~M. J. Hyatt Licensed Medical Technologist Regulatory Affairs Manager for ClinTrials Research
"Before you consider drugs, injections, or surgery, definitely give the Nashville Neuromuscular Center a try"~ Holly B.
"It is good to remember how smoothly a body can function. Rebecca can turn cranky muscles into silk, and it is such a pleasurable relief!" ~Brooke Allen
"I have been privileged to be a client of Rebecca Saindon at Nashville Neuromuscular Center for several years whenever things crop up to cause me pain. The new technique she is using with me has helped incredibly with my range of motion, decreased my muscle tightness, lessened my pain and given me a better sense of overall well being. I have had several treatments and improved drastically with each one. Thank you, Rebecca, for consistently furthering your knowledge of how our bodies work and what they need to work better." ~Jo Findley
