Synapse Sessions
We offer a safe space for healing to occur. You will experience a sense of belonging and ease as the NRT Practitioner treats you as a whole person. For one’s emotional and physical life is intricately related, so much so that the health of the one is proportional to the health of the other.
Offering
We provide one-on-one NeuroTraining coaching whereby a NRT therapist leads you in a guided tour into various ways to access your own nervous system, finding balance and overall health from inside out. As well we provide various combinations of hands-on manual techniques and prescribed body balancing, re-education exercises, for a comprehensive treatment, depending on your needs. Osteopathic Manual Therapy such as the following is practiced:

Techniques
We may use any combination of these techniques in order to assist the bodies own healing mechanisms to kick in and organize the structure, so one can return back to a healthy level of function. Along with Neuro Recovery Training the Nervous System gets stirred which then triggers the bodies natural ability to self-organize its own healing.
We listen to all your needs and concerns and care about more than what is ailing you. We want to know your current life situation and goals to form a clear picture of who and where you are. We treat you as a whole person, rather than just treating your symptoms.
We help you reconnect. Being in a state of dis-ease is not who you are. We remind you to let go and recognize your true essence so you can once again connect to life.

Meet Jill Runnion, (N.R.T)
Jill Runnion has been an Educator, Trainer, Physical Therapist Asst., and presently the owner of SYNAPSE. This practice is built on an unconventional approach to healing, re-educating and activation to the nervous system. For the past 30 years she has developed her manual skills working in the more “subtle systems” of the body as well as a skill set to coach her clients into their own inner wisdom to ‘heal thyself’.
She moved here to the Teton Valley 13 years ago where she is specialized as a Nervous System Recovery Therapist (N.R.T). Jill’s ability to profoundly listen to one’s body, as the dysfunctional patterns reveal themselves, supporting and assisting them to free up, is truly her gift.
Through highly developed proprioceptive, sensatory abilities she enters the bodies systems, entraining with them with various Osteopathic based; Integrative Manual Therapy techniques. Whether it be the Nervous System, the Musculoskeletal and Fascial System, Circulatory, Viscera, etc. feeling minute details that distinguish between the neural impulses, restrictions in the vascular flow, or whether it is finding lack of motility in an organ system or to a specific brain structure, assisting it to re-organize and return to a more balanced state where it can communicate with increased flow, ease and without extra static and excess tone. Just as some people can hear and taste remarkable nuances, Jill can feel and entrain with the bodily sensations of another.
Techniques to clear and open nerves for improved flow will allow the client to experience themselves as more “in” their body, more physically aware, with increased body sensation and access to experience ones feelings . The intention as the practitioner is not to have an agenda of their own to bring about change but instead sense into and work with the individual’s own rhythms, augmenting and assisting their body’s innate intelligence to take corrective action. The body then enters a place in which it desires to find its way to open what was once restricted and having difficulty flowing. If disconnected due to physical or emotional trauma the body will recoil and become armored thus decreasing it’s ability to feel on a sensory level, which coincides with the individuals emotional and spiritual being..
In her words:
"By facilitating nerve flow it literally frees up and increases the potential for one to have a greater “felt sense” of themselves. Creating clear sense of having a fullness inside, an interception, connection or feeling of wholeness from inside out. With a deepened felt sense and internal connection one can start communicating to their own bodies self-correcting potentials."
"I have observed in my client’s nervous systems a direct link between a pulsatory movement, warmth, the vitality in the actual tissue to be concomitant with such things as emotional release and/or an awareness to an issue they were blind to that became stored within the body. As the emotion is revealed the tissue literally transforms and an increase in flow becomes evident both to practitioner as well to the clients awareness."
The Nervous System is the engine of our being.
... IT IS THE "SOUL" OF OUR EXISTENCE. IT IS WHAT CREATES OUR PERSONALITY AND DRIVES OUR BODILY SYSTEMS.
