My Private Massage Practice covers a wide variety of techniques, which currently include Cranial, Visceral, Movement Analysis, Connective Tissue Release and Swedish Massage.
After listening to the clients requests and needs I explore ways of relieving pain and discomfort while supporting actions that prevent reoccurrences.
The underlying principle for using any given combination of techniques is working with what I call "Fixed Points." Fixed points are: fixations in the human body that cause dysfunction in the mechanics of the body, and which have the potential of release. This release of fixations can increase range of motion, decrease pain, and facilitate awareness of holding patterns within the body.
Finding these fixed points requires several methods of analysis. In combination with locating the fixed points within the physical structure, focus is placed on discovering how the fixed points were developed. The client and I can also work together to develop behavior that can contribute to supporting the release of fixed points and prevent reoccurrence.
I have helped thousands of people find new ways of doing their daily tasks, which reduced their body’s aches and pains. By using my system you to can manage your pain through Awareness, Relief and Prevention I call this “befriending your pain.” Your pain is an internal warning system in the body that was designed to prevent injury. Why not use it? I developed this system through my own process of eliminating pain for myself and then shared it with my clients and the system worked for them too. I have been a Licensed Massage Therapist for 23 years and what I know is that people want to learn about their bodies.
I am also writing more books one of which is called "The Jessie Parables" due to be out this year. It is inspired writing meant to Inspire.
