Women in South Boston dealing with menopausal pain can now find relief through naprapathy as a local provider expands its service area.

-- Poe Holistic Health and Wellness is making naprapathic care aimed at addressing pain and discomfort associated with menopause more accessible to South Boston residents. The update reflects a move toward more individualized clinical interventions intended to address underlying contributors to discomfort rather than focusing solely on symptom relief.

The announcement comes amid growing clinical interest in naprapathic treatment as a conservative approach to chronic musculoskeletal pain. Research from the Karolinska Institutet reports that 57 percent of patients improved after 12 weeks of naprapathic care, while 69 percent experienced clinically significant reductions in pain.
A spokesperson for Poe Holistic Health and Wellness said the expansion reflects a growing need for more targeted, gentle approaches for women navigating hormonal transitions. “Many women experience pain during menopause that is often dismissed or generalized,” they said. “Our goal is to provide care that looks at the body as an integrated system and addresses restrictions that may be contributing to discomfort.”
Naprapathy emphasizes connective tissue health and myofascial mobility, addressing restrictions that may arise from stress, injury, postural strain, or hormonal shifts. Unlike high-velocity manual therapies, naprapathic techniques rely on slow, controlled methods intended to support soft tissue release and nervous system regulation.
Resident naprapathy expert Dr. Kristen Poe provides the service under the name Gentle Fascia Body Work (Naprapathy), delivered as private, one-on-one therapeutic sessions. Each appointment includes an assessment followed by fascia-focused manual therapy and corrective techniques aimed at improving mobility and supporting longer-term relief. The practice operates on a concierge-style model, allowing for extended session time and individualized treatment planning outside of insurance-based constraints.
During sessions, patients undergo a detailed health history review and physical evaluation, including posture assessment, movement analysis, range of motion testing, and evaluation of tissue quality.
Treatment may begin with percussive tools to increase circulation and prepare connective tissue for manual work, followed by gentle naprapathic techniques to address fascial restrictions. Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization, including Graston-style techniques, may be used when appropriate to support tissue glide and mobility.
Dr. Poe holds a Doctor of Naprapathy degree, a PhD in Alternative Medicine, and certifications as a Board-Certified Holistic Nutritionist and Board-Certified Sexologist. She also serves as an Advisory Board Member of the American Naprapathic Association, which sets ethical and professional standards within the field.
