Myofascial Release Therapy & Restorative Massage
The body is a reservoir for memories and unprocessed emotions.
What we hold in our flesh, especially in the areas where we carry the most tension, is a well of information that can be used to support whole-body healing.
Disguised as restrictive tissue, these zones of knowledge are often the result of physical tension being reinforced by emotional tension, and vice versa. Tissue restrictions stem from trauma, surgery, inflammatory responses, and poor habitual posture.
To therapeutically address these regions, I use Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR). MFR is a technique that combines superficial and deep tissue manipulation and is recognized for its ability to release tension patterns stored deeply in the body while improving structural alignment.
Each session begins with a brief check-in to assess your body’s current state and clarify your intention for the work. From there, the quality and responsiveness of your tissue help guide the unfolding process. My approach often blends MFR with restorative techniques, though I also offer traditional restorative massage for those seeking deep relaxation and stress relief.

In a study examining the relationship between Major Depressive Disorder and the Myofascial network, Michalak et al. (2022) concluded that there is indeed a correlation between restrictive tissue and MDD. Individuals with MDD have a higher count of restrictions in their myofascial network."

“Wow, I am so grateful to have found Jess and to receive her bodywork! It feels like I have been looking for her for years! Her attunement to the body and spirit is deeply healing. I have had chronic pain in my neck and shoulder for 3 years, and in my first session with Jess, she started working on my pain in a way that no practitioner has been able to do before. I highly recommend Jess and her magical, liminal, attuned, deep work!”
