    Health and Path Optimization

     

    with Dr. Cammi Vance, DC

  •  

     

    Kinesthesiology is an exploration into the felt sense of being.

    A conversation on the philosophy of movement.

    It is a way of living.

     

    To align the sensations of the body

    with the values and conditions of the path

    can be a continuous practice

    of Living Consciously.

     

     

    Kinesthesia(n): Awareness of the position and movement of the parts of the body by means of sensory organs (proprioceptors) in the muscles and joints.

     

     

  • Mission

    broken image

    You are enough by simply being. Your body is part of Nature. How can we experience Nature today? How can we care for it?

     

     

     

    My mission is to help guide and collaborate with my clients and patients on ways to move towards an optimal sense of health, and the possibilities of an activated path.


    Your health is in Your hands. Sometimes you could use some assistance.

    Chiropractor - Movement Coach - Bodyworker - Health Coach

    Dr. Cammi Vance

    I am a holistic chiropractic physician centered in Portland, Oregon, USA.

     

    I assist folks in finding their best path to achieving optimal health to arrive fully in their lives.

     

    My passion is Movement. Our movement ways and practices are integral to how we interact with the health and sense of our bodies.

     

    Whatever your movement practice is or wants to be, I can help you:

    • Decrease pain, heal injuries, and assess and correct functional issues
    • Look at possibilities to improve overall wellness
    • Overcome health anxiety
    • Improve stability and performance
    • Calibrate mind and body

     

    Chiropractic approach:

    • I take a whole person approach to wellness, looking at what issues and goals are present for the individual, and determining what type of approach can be most powerful; what types of solutions can be most effective.
    • Bodywork and movement coaching are helpful for most everyone, from post surgical patients to hypermobile folks to performance athletes and everyone in between.
    • To facilitate alignment I use a range of techniques depending on patient/client needs and preferences. These can include chiropractic joint releases in Low Force and Tonal modes as well as the more commonly known Diversified adjusting technique, and a variety of soft tissue release and activation methods, as well as techniques to continue your care at home and through life's activities.
    • I have a network of referral partners to help patients develop a full health care team and approach.
    • Currently I am only taking patients at my Happy Valley office with Sunnyside Collaborative Care, and only accepting a small list of insurances as well as time of service payment. Please call the office to discuss options. (503)658-7715

      Dr. Cammi Vance

      Dancing is a way of being.

       

      Engage through listening and movement

       

      With the elements that make up your body and energy and surroundings.

       

      Notice the shifts in your breath and sensation.

       

      Experience the creative and receptive modes at once.

       

      Learn about cultures and relationships and possibilities.

       

      Love your physics in motion and in stillness.

       

      Dance is your birthright,

       

       

      as a moving, feeling part of Nature.

      Dr. Cammi Vance

      Dr. Cammi Vance

       Having enjoyed a 25 year career in ethnic contemporary theatrical dance, I can appreciate the particular needs of dancers and athletes, hypermobile individuals, and other artists.

      This experience working with thousands of creative people gives me a view into the experiences of artists and healers and people of service, as well as people of all types of diversity.

      I also have a unique log of experience working with people with chronic pain and other chronic symptoms, and have been able, as part of an integrative team, to make a difference for folks who have been dealing with such issues.
