1. What should I expect during my first session?

Your first session will include a brief conversation about your history, current symptoms, and goals. We’ll assess how your body is functioning and begin hands-on work using gentle, targeted techniques. You’ll remain clothed and comfortable throughout.

2. What should I wear to my session?

Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows for movement. Athletic wear or soft layers (like yoga pants and a t-shirt) work great. No jeans or restrictive clothes.

3. What is Fascial Counterstrain?

Fascial Counterstrain is a gentle, highly specific manual therapy that works with your body’s reflexes to release tension in fascia, nerves, blood vessels, and organs. It targets the root causes of dysfunction rather than just the symptoms.

4. How is this different from regular massage?

This work is not about applying pressure to muscles. It’s a subtle and precise technique that calms the nervous system, improves circulation, and helps the body self-correct. Most clients find it surprisingly powerful, even though it feels very gentle.

5. What is Rolfing and how is it used in your sessions?

Rolfing® Structural Integration is a method that helps organize and align the body by working with connective tissue. I use elements of Rolfing to help you move more easily and maintain the changes from Fascial Counterstrain.

6. How many sessions will I need?

This depends on your goals and how your body responds. Many clients begin with weekly or biweekly sessions, especially at the start. On average, it takes 4–6 hours of focused work to begin addressing deeper patterns. Some people come in occasionally for maintenance or seasonal resets.

7. Do you offer longer or intensive sessions?

Yes. Standard sessions are 75 minutes ($200), and I also offer 2-hour sessions ($320) for more in-depth work. If you're traveling from out of town, I offer back-to-back sessions over consecutive days to help with concentrated detox and faster recovery.

8. Can this help with emotional or energetic issues?

Absolutely. Many clients experience emotional releases or increased clarity after sessions. I work well with sensitive individuals and those integrating plant medicine or other deep personal work, always with care and trauma-informed awareness.

9. Is this safe for older adults or people with chronic illness?

Yes. The techniques I use are gentle, non-invasive, and often very helpful for those with long-standing or complex health issues. Your comfort and safety are always prioritized.

10. How do I book a session?

You can book directly through my [online scheduler] or reach out to me via email or phone. If you’re not sure if this work is right for you, I’m happy to answer questions before you book.
