Elizabeth is deeply skilled at her craft, and is additionally a truly wonderful person. If you have any knots of tension, she will find them! My husband always says I come home with a long willowy neck after a bodywork session.

Elizabeth is so knowledgeable about the health and disease states of the body. I know I am in good hands. I only wish I had started this series with her years ago!

She is knowledgeable about many aspects of medicine and the mind/body connections. She can find places that are causing pain or need attention and make it better. I would give her 10 stars if I could.

I had hip pain since giving birth to my oldest child, met Elizabeth 6 years after and was out of pain after ONE session. If you want to address your pain pattern and see results, book an appointment!

Elizabeth is extremely knowledgeable, professional and helpful, I can't say that enough. I've dealt with years of chronic pain and have seen countless providers, some with great insights and treatments, and others just as stumped as I was. I can honestly say my body has never felt the type of healing it has before being referred to Elizabeth and starting our bodywork sequence. I have far less pain, overall and after activity/working out, I walk with more confidence and I'm more present in my body. She has literally changed my life and I couldn't be more grateful or recommend her more highly.

Susanna is fabulous! I couldn’t have made it through the last couple months without her as I have back pain from work and have been recovering from an injury. Highly recommend!

Thank you for a wonderful and stress-releasing experience. I had been storing a tear's worth of stress and anxiety in my body. My body actually feels lighter after this massage. I don't think I realized how much I was physically holding on to all that stress.

I'm 34 and I've been exercising and working out since I was 16. I've spent many years lifting weights and beating my body up. One thing I never really did was stretch or work on mobility. This has led to numerous injuries, torn tendons and strains. I've never had a massage or any form of Soma & Rolf Structural Integration. I've known Jason for years in other capacities and when he mentioned this type of work to me I was a little hesitant. But, I kept an open mind as I felt beat up, down and unable to perform even close to my full potential. I opted to do the series with Jason as I knew I needed some help. After my first session I walked out of there feeling revived. After my second session things that hurt when I went in were no longer hurting and things I didn't even know were bothering me felt better. Now I've seen him on a weekly basis for a couple of months and the results are still coming. My body feels better and moves better which improves my mood and all around well-being. For someone like me who has a passion for exercise Jason has been a life saver. I'd recommend him to anyone!

Elizabeth is a Soma Neuromuscular Integration master. Deep bodywork that really makes a difference physically, and changes the outlook on life by releasing stuck pain and tissue inside the body. ❤️

It's peaceful, clean, quiet, beautiful, warm and welcoming. Very easy to relax and feel at home during treatments. The selection of local teas is much appreciated, as is the assortment of information and curated products in their waiting room. Always have a smile on my face as I walk through the door, no matter what kind of day I'm having.

Elizabeth is incredibly skilled and really helped my muscle pain with one session. I signed up for the multi-session program and I’m really excited to continue working with Elizabeth. It’s hard to describe in words how much better my back felt after our session yesterday. I strongly recommend her therapy to anyone with muscle pain.
