Tissues have issues
& muscles have memory
- so -
.....see me when your body hurts,
and begin your journey away from pain.....

Hello! You have reached the site for:
- Muscle & Tissue Care by Lucy -

The type of bodywork and massage I typically do is geared more towards helping with pain and problems. It is not Swedish nor full body massage. Going to the doctor for numerous types of pain will often result in medications or surgery. I offer another option - a more holistic approach that helps improve your structural alignment, and helps your body to heal itself.

I am certified in Neuromuscular Therapy, Medical Massage, Sports Massage, & Pregnancy Massage. Limited Craniosacral Therapy & Lymphatic Drainage are also available for individuals desiring these, and they are quite effective in conjunction with other forms of soft tissue care. I am a Reiki III practitioner and frequently include this during treatment. If you are unfamiliar with Reiki, please see my Client Education page. The 'Meet Lucy' page has a more detailed explanation of my work and what I may do for you.

Please feel free to explore my site. I have posted things inclined towards educating people. While in school, I wrote several papers and made up brochures that I have posted here for you to read.

Forms of therapy and services that I offer are:

Neuromuscular Therapy

Trigger Point Myotherapy

Medical Massage

CranioSacral Therapy

Lymphatic Drainage

Pregnancy Massage

Deep Tissue

Myofascial Release

Range-of-motion and stretching⁹

Pre-op and post-op care

Sports Massage

Chair massage - mobile and at events

Reiki

Ear candling

A postural assessment may be included in your evaluation, because determining what is causing your pain is better than simply 'massaging where it hurts'. Evaluating how your pain got to this point and how to maintain not being in pain is ongoing client education so that you will be better equipped to take care of yourself.

It's time to start feeling better, and leave your memories of living in pain in the past.

I look forward to meeting and treating you!

Yin and Yang...

Taoist philosophy on the interdependence of opposites:
Being and nonbeing produce each other;
Difficult and easy compliment each other;
Long and short contrast each other;
High and low distinguish each other;
Sound and voice harmonize each other;
Front and back follow each other;
To understand anything, consider it's opposite.
