The Overton Clinic

Where Does Stress Show Up in YOUR Body?

We all have places where tension tends to collect.

For some people, it's the:

🟢 Neck
🟢 Shoulders
🟢 Jaw
🟢 Low back
🟢 Hips
🟢 Head

Sometimes we don't even realize we're holding tension until someone points it out.

Take a moment right now.

Drop your shoulders.

Unclench your jaw.

Take a slow breath.

Now ask yourself:

“Where am I holding tension today?”

When dizziness and balance problems suddenly turn your everyday life upside down, getting back to feeling like yourself can mean everything.

This patient came to The Overton Clinic after a severe episode of vertigo left them struggling to walk, balance, and function normally. After receiving a medical evaluation and diagnosis, they were still experiencing significant symptoms—and that's when they reached out to Patricia.

We're grateful they chose to share their experience:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“Had a severe case of vertigo after getting off a cruise in February, so bad that I had trouble walking, balancing, and honestly thought I might be dealing with something as serious as a stroke. After a hospital visit, I was diagnosed with vertigo, but even after a week, I still wasn’t functioning normally.

That’s when I reached out to Overton Clinic and connected with Patricia Figueroa. From the very first appointment, it was clear she knew exactly what she was doing. I left feeling noticeably better, even though I wasn’t fully there yet.

After my second treatment, the improvement was dramatic. Not only did she help resolve my vertigo, but she also addressed underlying issues with my posture, neck, spine, and shoulders. Things that come with being in my 50s and that I hadn’t fully realized were contributing factors.

Today, I feel 100% back to normal. Patricia truly has a gift. I walked into her office struggling to function and walked out with my life back.

I can’t thank her enough. If you’re dealing with vertigo or any kind of structural or balance issue, I highly recommend seeing her.

Thank you, Patricia, you’re amazing.”

We love hearing what getting back to feeling like yourself makes possible. Thank you for trusting Patricia and The Overton Clinic with your care.

“I'm Just Getting Older.”

Maybe. But getting older doesn't automatically mean you have to accept persistent pain, stiffness, or declining mobility.

Aging is normal. Living with preventable limitations isn't necessarily something you have to accept.

If you're noticing that your body doesn't move the way it used to, that's information worth paying attention to.

The goal isn't to turn back the clock. It's to help you understand your body and make the most of the body you have today.

You deserve to move well at every age.

Where it hurts isn't always where the problem starts.

This is one of the most important concepts we teach at The Overton Clinic.

Your neck may hurt—but the contributing pattern may involve your shoulders.

Your low back may hurt—but another area may be compensating for limited mobility.

Your headaches may be influenced by tension in your neck, shoulders, or jaw.

The body works as a connected system.

That's why Neurosomatic Therapy looks beyond the painful spot to understand movement, posture, muscular tension, and compensation patterns.

Instead of asking only:

“Where does it hurt?”

We also ask:

“Why might your body be creating this pattern?”

That's where a thorough assessment can make a difference.

We’re open this Labor Day!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Hear from one of our patients about their Overton Clinic experience:

"Asja has been absolutely amazing with me in dealing with my pain management. I have been going to her for just over a month and the gains are very noticeable. I haven’t been able to throw a football for more than 5 minutes without pain in my shoulder for the rest of the day. Last weekend I threw a football for more than 20 minutes without any pain during or after. I can’t say enough great things about Asja!" --CG
