Conditions Treated

Every condition page below is written from twenty years of clinical experience. Each one explains how the condition works in your body, why conventional approaches often fall short, and what targeted therapeutic massage can do differently.

• Sciatica
  That sharp, burning pain down your leg usually starts with compression in the lower back or deep in the hip. Neuromuscular and myofascial techniques release the tension creating the pressure.
• Piriformis Syndrome
  A small, deep hip muscle sits right on top of the sciatic nerve. When it tightens, the pain mimics sciatica — and most people spend months treating the wrong thing.
• Neck, Back & Shoulder Pain
  The pain you've adjusted your life around — how you sit, sleep, and carry things. Targeted deep tissue and neuromuscular work addresses the patterns that keep it coming back.
• TMJ
  Jaw pain that radiates through your temples, neck, and shoulders. Your jaw joint is connected to everything, and releasing the muscles around it can change the whole picture.
• Migraines
  Medication manages the acute pain but doesn't address the muscular and postural patterns triggering the episodes. Therapeutic massage works on the cause, not just the symptom.
• Fibromyalgia
  The pain moves, spreads, and exhausts you. What you're experiencing is real, and with the right approach — careful, responsive bodywork — your body can respond.
• EDS & Hypermobility
  When your connective tissue doesn't provide the structural support most people take for granted, your muscles work overtime to compensate. Specialized work helps stabilize without overstretching.
• Scoliosis
  Your spine has a curve it shouldn't, and the compensations your body builds around it are usually where the pain lives. Massage can't change the curve, but it can change how your body manages it.
• Anxiety & Stress
  Anxiety sets up camp in your body — the tight jaw, the shoulders around your ears, the knot that never leaves. Therapeutic massage helps your nervous system step out of high alert.
• Sports Injuries
  Your body carries the memory of impact. Even after acute pain subsides, muscles remain tight and movement patterns shift to protect the area, creating new problems down the road.
• Pre & Post-Surgical Recovery
  Surgery is stressful on your body even when it goes perfectly. Scar tissue forms, surrounding areas tighten, and range of motion suffers. Massage before and after a procedure makes a measurable difference.
