I offer customized bodywork, fitness training, and wellness coaching to help clients relieve pain, recover from injury, and move with ease and resilience.

My specialization and passion is the Hendrickson Method®, an advanced system of orthopedic, clothed bodywork that reduces pain, restores mobility, and supports whole-body balance. In contrast to spa massage and a focus on isolated symptoms, this approach works with the body as an integrated system—addressing fascial restrictions, joint limitations, and muscle imbalances in the context of how each person moves, compensates, and adapts.

Personal training sessions with me emphasize functional, sustainable movement, combining targeted exercise with self-myofascial-release (self massage) techniques using foam rollers and therapy balls.

I also support clients remotely as a Wellcoaches® health and wellness coach, helping you to build lasting habits and create meaningful change. My strengths-based coaching approach highlights trust, curiosity, a positive growth mindset, and mutual accountability.

REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

by Anonymous on Dec 11
As a former dancer and extreme athlete with injuries to spine and elsewhere over the years in the Middle East, I’ve seen many, many orthopedists, chiropractors, and massage experts in different fields for half a century now. Joanna brings something rare and wonderfully effective to the perpetual project of keeping me moving, and with less severe chronic pain, with the Hendrickson method. Every session is an education in where to focus my own stretching and movement work at home, in the gym, and in the pool. She is easily in the 99.99th percentile of all the specialists I’ve seen in many fields here and overseas. Absolutely brilliant.

Joanna is a wonderful healer! She really listens to what you are experiencing, and incorporates it into the session. Highly recommended!
by Ruth on Sep 26
Highly skilled AND intuitive. Unbeatable combination! Although I had never encountered the Hendrikson Method Massage technique, I found it very helpful. I’m a regular now, after just 3 sessions.

This is different from your average massage--getting to the root of imbalances and muscle tightness in a holistic way. I recommend Joanna's work highly. Margie Muenzer

Joanna is an amazing bodyworker. She is an expert in using the Hendrickson Method which allows her to read/feel and treat tensions and dysfunction in the body. She is kind, gentle, intuitive and skilled. I always leave her treatment feeling grateful for her work.

Joanna is masterful at her craft, which combines a variety of impactful modalities - I leave her sessions feeling deeply relaxed and also with my aches and pains alleviated. She is very down to earth, which only amplifies the quality of her calm, care, and competence.

Joanna has a gift beyond her skill and knowledge. I am grateful to be touched with such gentleness and compassion and understanding and healing. To release buried emotions and physical pain.

Joanna is a skilled practitioner and understood my knee injury. She gently worked with my limitations to gain more flexibility.

This was the best massage I ever had! Joanna is intentional, and skilled at gently instructing you how to position yourself or engage your muscles during certain practices so you are working with her to get the most out of the massage.
