Athelas Massage Therapy

Got chronic pain? Maybe you’ve been to doctor after doctor, every specialist under the sun, and no one can solve your problem. They just keep giving you pills. Or, perhaps, they refuse to give you pills, because they’re starting to understand the risks of painkillers. Maybe they want to do surgery, or maybe they already did, and you’re still hurting.

Many times, these chronic pain issues result from muscular pain, which can often mimic more serious medical conditions.

I specialize in chronic pain, whether it’s from injury, overuse, or some other cause. Let’s talk! In conjunction with your relevant health care providers, I’ll work with you to help you address the muscular issues you’re facing.

You can’t always access the help you need in person. You might be too busy, working odd hours, far from services, or sheltering in place during a global pandemic. When hands-on massage is not an option, Athelas Online can help. I offer video conferencing in a HIPAA compliant online work space to assess your difficulty and provide self care instruction tailored to your needs. No downloads or logins needed.

I also offer self-care webinars via Zoom. Contact me for information.

One day, you’re working in your cubicle. The next, you’re figuring out how to work from home. It could be days, weeks, or months. How do you design your space to avoid injury? Athelas can help! With an educational background in functional anatomy and injury prevention, several years experience, and OSHA compliance training in ergonomics, (proof of completion available upon request), I am well equipped to help you create the setup you need to be safe and productive. Ergonomic Consulting is available online only during global pandemics.

I also offer ergonomics webinars via Zoom. Contact me for information.

I specialize in Neuro-Muscular Therapy, but my massage training covered quite a few types of massage, including Swedish, Deep Tissue, and other common varieties.

I design each massage around the needs and preferences of the client, so any given massage may have features of several different modalities.

In addition, I am also trained in Level 1 Burn Scar Therapy, Cupping, and Massage for Fibromyalgia.

I have experience working with Fibromyalgia, TMJ Dysfunction, SI Joint Dysfunction, shoulder pain, Plantar Fasciitis, headache relief, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and much more!
