Jessica Catts
If Jessica could only teach her clients one thing, it would be that deep tissue massage does not have to be full of deep pressure or painful work to get results. She incorporates myofascial and deep tissue techniques with traditional massage techniques to address underlying tension, dysfunction, and stress. Gentle stretching, trigger point release, and tools are used where needed to keep the client as comfortable as possible while addressing individual concerns. No one should ever suffer through a deep tissue massage, feel sick after, or be sore for days. During a therapeutic massage the whole body is taken into consideration with the goal of restoring a more neutral posture, thus decreasing unnecessary wear and tear, pulling, and strain.
Jessica specializes in deep tissue work and chronic pain relief. Upon graduating, she worked in aquatic rehab for about 6 years before transitioning to a hospital based clinic, there specializing in chronic neck and back pain. During the years in PT, she worked with total joint replacements, stroke rehab, gait dysfunctions, sports injury, and injury prevention. Jessica has taken countless continuing education courses including treatment and dysfunction of the hip and knee, comprehensive treatment of the shoulder, manual techniques for migraine relief, and posture analysis training. HealthyBack and Neck certified.
