Working with a medical team for decades helping workers find relief from pain and getting back to work has been a huge opportunity that has aided me in being able to help others. Generally I can come up with a list of things for us to check when it comes to pain and dysfunction of the soft tissue. After the first session I generally give you selfcare instructions to do at home so you can get healthier and happier sooner than later. Always look forward to working with you each session to find what we can improve to create more spaciousness and ease in your body.

Juana is extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend her. She listened to my concerns and used a whole body approach to address and relieve my lower back pain and many other tender areas I have dealt with for a long time. She is professional and thorough and used many different massage and stretching techniques to get to the root of my pain which helped put me on the path to healing. My overall experience was peaceful and calm, and I am beyond satisfied. I look forward to many other sessions with her in the future.
