Praxis Flo (Fribourg)

The body functions thanks to a subtle balance: head, body and belly are inseparable.
I always take a holistic approach, listening to your needs.
I make sure that everyone finds their own tools, and can take their health back in hand, while being accompanied, guided and helped.

I've been a physiotherapist since 2007, and I'm passionate about my work. I've taken several training courses that have enabled me to broaden my range of tools and refine my approach to each patient.

In 2016, I resumed my studies with the aim of perfecting my skills in lymphatic drainage, massage and visceral techniques.

I also work in Villars-sur-Glâne, at the Petit Prince birth center.

I practice manual lymphatic drainage and massage as a therapist recognized by ASCA and RME. I leave it up to you to contact your complementary insurance company to find out whether it is covered.

**Lymphatic drainage

Manual lymphatic drainage is a gentle, light technique designed to improve lymph circulation.
Lymph circulates in vessels the size of a silk thread, then larger and larger, throughout the body, from the periphery to the neck, where it returns to the bloodstream. On its way, it passes through the lymph nodes, which purify it.

Surgery, scarring, pathology, ageing and pregnancy can affect the integrity of your body, preventing the free circulation of fluids, causing edema, imbalances and a deterioration in your health.

For whom and for what?

Skin disorders, acne, circulatory problems, lymphatic disorders, stress, pre- and post-surgical edema, heavy legs, headaches and constipation are just some of the situations that can be relieved with a drainage session, whether for adults, children, pregnant women or teenagers.

How does a lymphatic drainage session work?

A session lasts about an hour, with the first one taking longer to get to know each other, establish a complete assessment and rule out any possible contraindications. The technique is manual, very gentle and superficial. The areas treated vary according to the session, needs and treatment required. The whole body can be treated.

Massage

Massage is a series of manual maneuvers adapted to your needs and those of your body. It can be relaxing, wellness, therapeutic or preventive. A wide range of techniques are used, including effleurage, sliding pressure, kneading, vibration and visceral massage, as well as cupping, hooking and taping...

Stress, daily life, injury, surgery, scarring, pathology are all causes of dysfunction in your body.

For whom and what?

Muscular relaxation, improved sleep, reduced pain, less stress, less fatigue, support during pregnancy.
Visceral massage is beneficial for digestive disorders, constipation, abdominal pain, spinal pain...

How does a massage session work?

The duration varies according to your needs and requirements. You'll need to allow more time for the first session, in order to establish a complete assessment.

Physiotherapy

This is a wide-ranging, fulfilling activity for everyone.

It allows us to assess and maximize the mobility of each and every one of us.

My work is particularly aimed at pregnant and post-partum women. But also for anyone needing manual therapy, visceral physiotherapy...

I'm also happy to help women with their perineal rehabilitation, working with their midwife and doctor to achieve the best results. (Aspug-pp member)
