The purpose of True North Wellness is to assist clients on their health and wellness journey by helping them align their body, mind, and spirit toward their own “true north”. Life is mostly comprised of millions of minute moment by moment choices rather than the big life decisions to which people so often attribute value. Massage therapy, yoga, and reiki are all tools clients can use to begin to change their everyday reality by influencing those momentary choices. Johanna’s purpose for True North Wellness is to use her ability to listen to client goals and concerns combined with her knowledge of massage therapy, yoga and reiki to create individualized wellness plans specific to each client’s vision of wellness. Therapeutic massage is not only a highly beneficial modality, it is also a... more

My entire body really hurt! Especially my lower back! Johanna’s techniques and experience helped my overall body and my lower back relaxa and reduced my pain by 50% after first 90 minute session. A week later, after 90 more minutes, my back pain is almost gone! Great Results deserve the highest recommendation!

I feel so much better today! I've been having foot and ankle issues for a while so Joanna spent some time loosening things up and the difference was noticable right away. Even more exciting, I experienced much less pain today (the day after) and Joanna spent some time during the massage to show me how to maintain my joint mobility in my foot so hopefully I can stay pain-free in the future. Very happy with the whole experience at True North Wellness and I'm looking forward to my next visit!

I recently moved to the area and while I was searching for outdoor yoga classes I came across True North Wellness. Since then, I’ve been to a couple excellent yoga events led by Johanna. Yesterday, was my first massage with her and I loved it so much I ended up buying multiple sessions. I’m so happy to have connected with Johanna and I highly recommend her for your yoga and massage needs.

The attention to detail and communication with the client has been amazing
After a car accident I decided to use therapy over medication
I have sought muscle therapy for years and have had many wonderful therapists but this has been a different experience
Johanna takes the time to get to know the client without watching the clock which makes you feel relaxed immediately.
The detailed notes on my therapy and Johanna taking the time to show me the muscle areas we have worked on the layers we have been able to make progress
She discusses with me where we should work on next to build on my progress and how my body is responding
She has made a painful road to recovery relaxing, peaceful and compassionate
Highly recommend

Johanna is professional yet very relaxing. Been a while so my traps and calves (problem areas) were super tight. Relaxed so much I fell asleep while she was getting deep in the muscles. (That's a good thing for me). First time with cupping and I can feel a difference from previous massages. Johanna really worked on loosing all the layers of skin and muscle, not just diving straight to the knot with her elbows, so I am less sore than normal. Will go back again for sure.
