WHAT TO EXPECT


Arrival and Scheduling:
Gateway Therapies is located in the historic Thiensville Mill Building. Please use the side entrance and wait in the lobby where we will greet you.
​
Please note there are two small sets of stairs inside the building, as it does not have an elevator due to its age. If stairs are a challenge, we offer home visits by appointment only. To schedule a home visit, please call us at (262) 292-4383 or email us at info@gatewaytherapiesllc.com.
​​
Scheduling Your Counterstrain Appointment:
We offer three levels of Fascial Counterstrain care, based on the clinician’s training and the complexity of your symptoms. This tiered system helps ensure you are matched with the provider best suited to your needs.
​
Tier 1 Counterstrain:
Foundational Care for New or Straightforward Concerns
​
Tier 1 appointments focus on general and more superficial fascial restrictions. These sessions are ideal for new clients, recent injuries, or uncomplicated pain and mobility issues. The goal is to reduce discomfort, improve movement, and establish a strong starting point for care.
​
Tier 2 Counterstrain:
​
Deeper Care for Chronic or Complex Issues
Tier 2 appointments involve a more detailed assessment and treatment of longer-standing or multi-layered conditions. This level is well suited for clients with chronic symptoms, multiple areas of concern, or those who need a deeper level of care beyond Tier 1.
​
Advanced Facial Counterstrain:
Specialized Care for Persistent or Complex Conditions
Advanced appointments are designed for clients with ongoing or highly complex symptoms that have not fully resolved with Tier 1 or Tier 2 care. These sessions address deep and interconnected fascial restrictions using advanced techniques.
​
Due to the complexity of care, Advanced Facial Counterstrain appointments are scheduled through our office to ensure you are matched with our most advanced Counterstrain clinicians. To schedule or to determine if this level is appropriate for you, please call (262) 292-4383 or email info@gatewaytherapiesllc.com.
​
Scheduling for Tier 1 and Tier 2 fascial counterstrain will continue to be available online via our booking site.
