Discover Yourself Again

My passion for bodywork began when I was introduced to Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT), an assessment tool that allows one to see concretely the function of muscles. Since then, I have been on a mission to bridge the gap between the mind and body. With Massage Therapy and Emotion Code side by side, NKT has become the glue that bridges it all together and helps my clients see how their stress and mindsets aid or inhibit their physical health. Awareness is a powerful tool!

With Massage Therapy and Emotion Code side by side, NKT has become the glue that bridges it all together and helps my clients see how their stress and mindsets aid or inhibit their physical health. Awareness is a powerful tool!


I have founded Winter Bloom Bodywork as a place to expand our NKT community in Springfield, mentor others, and continue to teach our clients about the importance of looking at the whole picture. After becoming a mom and essentially being in hibernation with my little cub, I got a clear message that it was time to bloom once again and Winter was the perfect time to do so! Let us be leaders and burst forth from the frost with blooms vibrant and bold.

Experience
Bodywork

Neuromuscular

I have mentored with many professionals but none so extensively as with Tracy Maxfield, a one-of-a-kind body worker in the Springfield, MO area. For more than a year I shadowed his work and discovered techniques like NKT (Neurokinetic Therapy), PNT (Pain Neutralization Technique), and Emotion Code where I began my practice.

Sports Massage

I have a collected 23.5 hrs of post-event sports massage. -CAF Back to Back Challenge is an amazing 3 day cycling event, in support of challenged athletes, winding through the sunny Sonoma hillsides. I was honored to provide sports massage to athletes after the end of their 50-80 mi rides each day. -Nappa Valley Marathon

Merry really took her time to understand exactly what was going on with my body. I enjoyed getting to know her and I’m so excited to be on this journey with her. I will continue going to her and I’m excited to say I can actually see a light at the end of the tunnel!

She was very patient and explained everything that she was doing as we went through the therapy.
by Jessie on Jun 30
I really appreciate Merry’s approach to healing. She acknowledges the role of chronic and stored pain, as well as the neural pathways that influence it—which is something that’s often overlooked.

Merry knows else she’s doing. She listens to what you want and has the tools and remedy for what you desire. You will not find a better spirit for your therapeutic needs. She has fantastic smile that will set you at ease from the moment you meet her. I highly recommend Merry and strongly encourage you to succumb to eat ails and give her a shout. She provides excellent pain and motion relief.

Merry deserves more recognition for her skills and efforts at finding the- often hidden- true causes of bodily dysfunction. I highly recommend her to everyone who desires a deeper understanding of their body and a more balanced feeling overall.
