Massage Therapy

It's the rare person who doesn't enjoy a massage. Hands on muscles are relaxing for both mind and body. There is something inherently healing in one person caring for another so personally. But not all massages are alike. Many massage school graduates are versed only in the minimal routines that a client might want for a pleasant experience. However the world of massage therapy is broad. Jon's deep background in anatomy and his continuing studies in specialty techniques for using massage as a corrective tool for bodies in pain make him exceptionally qualified to help clients find an excellent way to heal.
First Jon tends to follow how muscles connect throughout the presentation of a healthy body to track down the complete picture of why you might be in pain. He does more than rub a simple knot. He discovers connections that may lead to a body's problems such as knots, adhesions stiffness, joint pain, and general misalignments. Clients with problems they thought were permanent have found relief. Even clients with genuinely permanent problems can be helped by Jon's ability to analyze how their bodies are compensating in unhealthy ways to a source of pain or weakness.

Jon understands that our entire bodies are wrapped in a sheath of material known as fascia which, when immobilized by pain, can keep muscles from responding to stretching. Slowly releasing fascia lets our bodies once again become more fluid. In fact, down to the molecular level we are fluid. Jon restores fluidity, function, and comfort by helping our bodies become "unstuck." We can move more naturally again and be freed of pain.
For an excellent and effective massage, see Jon. But don't be surprised to discover how much more than a temporarily pleasurable experience he can give you through understanding anatomy and knowing how to heal it.
 
Using Jon's talents with hypnosis can make your massage experience even more profound by helping to align peaceful thoughts with your bodily relaxation. Using Jon's yoga wisdom with massage can bring to your bodywork with him unusually effective stretches that unwind your long muscle tension. If you want to understand all of the science behind what he chooses to do with your massage time with him, Jon can tell you exactly what he is looking for in your body and why. He can also offer homework so that you achieve optimal results.
