Exploring the deeper tissues of therapeutic bodywork.
The Chemistry of Touch: Endocrine Health & Bodywork
Hormones regulate nearly every essential function in your body: stress response, sleep, energy, mood, metabolism, and immune function. When these systems are off-balance, the effects are felt physically and emotionally. Through skilled bodywork, we support the body in rebalancing these hormones by working directly with the nervous system.
The Silent Language of Pain & How to Listen.
Pain is an essential language of the body, alerting us of an imbalance that requires care and attention to heal. Transformational bodywork asks for a deep listening to the body's needs.
Receiving Is a Skill
Receiving is an act of surrender—not in the sense of giving up, but in the sense of allowing. When you allow yourself to fully surrender to the experience of bodywork, you open yourself to receiving healing on multiple levels: physical, emotional, and energetic.
Motion is Lotion: Mobility & Flexibility
By targeting both the muscles and the connective tissues (like fascia) that surround the joints, we help restore full functional movement. Whether you're looking to improve your flexibility for yoga, ease discomfort from stiffness, or prevent injury during physical activity, our sessions are designed to help your body move freely and efficiently.
Move Better, Work Smarter: How Bodywork Boosts Productivity
We’ve all experienced those days where no matter how hard we try, we just can’t focus. Our minds wander. Our bodies feel restless. We’re distracted and frustrated, wishing for the energy and clarity to power through our to-do lists. But here’s a secret many people overlook: Productivity starts in your body.
Sweet Dreams: How Bodywork Improves Sleep
At Profound Touch, we believe in helping the body return to its natural rhythms. Quality sleep is essential not just for energy and focus, but for cellular repair, emotional regulation, and long-term resilience. And massage therapy offers a powerful, natural way to support it.
Rest is a Revolution: Polyvagal Theory and Bodywork.
Polyvagal Theory is a revolutionary framework that illuminates the way our bodies respond to safety, stress, and threat. When paired with therapeutic bodywork, it becomes a profound map for transformation—not just in the body, but in the way we relate to ourselves, others, and the world.
A Posture of Peace: The Roots of Alignment
For most people, “alignment” conjures images of rigid posture: shoulders back, spine straight, head high. But true alignment isn’t a shape you hold. It’s a state of perception. A conversation between your body, the earth, and your nervous system. Alignment isn’t about looking correct, it’s about feeling connected.
Tensegrity and Human Architecture
When we work with the body through massage, myofascial release, and structural integration, we’re not just targeting isolated knots or muscles—we’re influencing an entire tension-compression matrix. A restriction in one area affects the whole. A release in one place can bring unexpected freedom to another.
