Personal Sedona Intensive Treatment Retreat

Let the magical energy and beauty of Sedona’s red rocks stir an inner yearning to go deeper into your therapeutic process. New for 2008 …… Hands on Physical Therapy is excited to present the SEDONA PERSONAL INTENSIVE RETREAT. This program seeks to customize and enhance your therapeutic experience in a retreat-like setting. Jody Hendryx, PT and Michael Rende, OTR will work with each participant to create a personalized treatment package to maximize each individual’s goals.

Benefits of this Experience We believe healing is a process not an event and so it is our intention to aid every participant to deepen their whole body awareness in relation to movement and pain patterns in a setting unfamiliar to our daily lives. Receiving daily treatments outside of our home environment allows us to focus on our healing process and the body’s response to treatment. We will encourage each participant to take advantage of Sedona’s numerous trails and natural beauty. Treatments will incorporate both indoor and outdoor settings to allow you to derive maximum benefit from this experience.

Dates and times will be determined on an individual basis. Cost of the treatment program will be determined by the amount and types of treatment chosen.

To make the most of your therapeutic experience, you may want to consider coordinating your personal intensive with John Barnes’ Myofascial Healing Seminar which is also given in Sedona. For more information on The Myofascial Healing Seminar, go to www.myofascialrelease.com and look under “Seminars to heal you”.

How will this work?

Hands On Physical Therapy patients can sign up for a one week treatment program in Sedona, AZ. The program will consist of treatment over a five day period, one hour daily and one additional treatment with two therapists. In addition, there will be a three hour outdoor experience which will include proprioceptive and inner awareness exercises and a hands on experience. There will also be a two hour myofascial movement/stretch class. Your insurance can be billed, if that is how you are currently paying for treatment. If you are a cash paying patient, the treatment cost is one thousand dollars ($1000.00 USD). In addition, you would be responsible for your airfare, lodging, meals and any additional travel expenses.

Benefits of this Experience Chronic problems can be more difficult to resolve with treatment 1 - 2 times a week, especially when treatment is scheduled between the rigors of maintaining a work schedule and home activities. Receiving daily treatment, outside of your home environment, allows you to focus on your own healing and pay more attention to your body’s response to treatment.

The area is characterized by beautiful red rock formations. Treatments will be approximately one hour daily which will leave additional time to go out in nature and give yourself that much-needed break. There is also time to visit Therapy On The Rocks - one of John Barnes’ (founder of Myofascial Release) treatment centers. This treatment center offers Myofascial treatments by highly skilled therapists. You can visit their center and schedule an hour or more to enhance the treatment you’re receiving. Spaces will be limited so consider holding your spot as soon as possible.
