"The universe is a fractal. Whatever energy signature we carry will be repeated infinitely, again and again..until we change that vibration" - P. Bartholomew

My passion for helping and healing others has always fueled my career. After I received my degree as an Occupational Therapy Assistant in Albany, NY in 2016, I provided rehabilitative care to the adult and geriatric population at various skilled nursing settings. Building on my OT foundation, I attended Myofascial Release (MFR) seminar taught by John F. Barnes in April, 2019, and immediately felt I found my purpose.

My passion for helping and healing others has always fueled my career. After I received my degree as an Occupational Therapy Assistant in Albany, NY in 2016, I provided rehabilitative care to the adult and geriatric population at various skilled nursing settings. Building on my OT foundation, I attended Myofascial Release (MFR) seminar taught by John F. Barnes in April, 2019, and immediately felt I found my purpose. After seeing the results MFR can provide in relieving pain in myself & clinical patients, I changed my career path to become a licensed massage therapist in 2020 to practice MFR full time. Feeling strongly to the benefits of this work, I have committed myself to continue studying this valuable therapy. So far, I've completed 160 hours of hands on continuing education & in person with John Barnes, PT who is the creator of Myofascial Release.

Fractal Bodyworks was born from my lifetime love of learning. Fractals have been a reoccurring element in my life, from my young love of photographing nature, to my fervent interest in geology & human anatomy, I always find myself drawn to fractals. It reappeared again when I studied the intricate repeating patterns of the fascial system in John Barnes MFR seminars. Fractals exist everywhere. And with the similar physical properties, and symbiotic relationship we share with trees, its hard to deny our connection with nature.

In my spare time, I find great joy in traveling, hiking, biking, and yoga, as well as spending time with my rescue fur baby, Otto.

REVIEWS for my Bodywork or Aromatherapy services

by Angela on Feb 15
I had a session with Julia at Fractal Bodyworks the other day and I absolutely recommend her. Julia is thoughtful and takes her time explaining the technique and what she is noticing in the body. It’s clear she is passionate about her work and very conscientious about how the client feels throughout the visit. I felt both informed and cared for. One of the biggest surprises was how gentle the treatment is. Myofascial release has powerful effects, yet the session itself was not painful or uncomfortable. Julia focused on my hips, as I’ve been experiencing ongoing lower back discomfort. Through her evaluation, she identified that my pelvis was slightly elevated and rotated on one side. The way she assessed and addressed it felt precise and intentional. I left feeling at ease. The next day I had a little soreness, but nothing concerning. More importantly, my hips feel less restricted and my body is moving more fluidly. She shared that integration can take time and that each body responds at its own pace, so I was pleasantly surprised to feel a difference within the first day. If you’re looking for someone who blends skill, awareness, and genuine care, Julia is exceptional.

If massage and chiropractic hasn't done what you hoped... this is awesome and doing just what I needed. This technique/service is freeing for me... physically and emotionally... let go of the stress... Julia is very good at what she does... highly recommend.

I started treatment with Julia in December 2024 and am thrilled with my progress. My pelvis and hip have never stayed in alignment for extended periods. I've never been pain-free- especially through high-stress situations. I'm grateful for the care I've received.
