CranioSacral Therapy is a light touch therapy that can create dramatic improvements in your life. It releases tension deep in the body, relieves pain and dysfunction and improves whole body health and performance. Few body structures have more influence over your health and well being than your central nervous system.
You may be wondering why Lymphatic Drainage is located under the CranioSacral dropdown tab. Both CranioSacral (CST) and Lymphatic Drainage Therapies (LDT) are gentle touch therapies that can work seamlessly together, can be added to other massage techniques, or can be stand alone treatments. Lymphatic Drainage Therapy works directly on the lymphatic system of the body.
After years of living in pain with temporal mandible joint disfunction ("TMJD"), and spending money and time at various doctors, I continued to be in pain. Even though I was treated by my general practitioner, physical therapists, a regular dentist and a dentist who specialized in jaw problems, it was unsuccessful & I did not get any relief from my pain.
THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE is a remarkable tool for helping to manage stress, anxiety or depression. Massage can benefit those with arthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic headaches, TMJ, repetitive strain injuries, as well as neck pain, back pain, chronic pain, and respiratory conditions.

I throughly enjoyed my first online class with J last night. J's verbal clues helped me settle into each pose just like she was in the room with me. It was very easy to access the class online and I had no technical issues. Our time together was a wonderful experience to offset stress and reset my mind. I am looking forward to next week🧘♀️

We have been going to J for yoga for years and John for massage for even longer. This evening we participated in our first online yoga practice with J. Although we were skeptical at first, J’s exceptional gift for yoga shined through as brightly as her spiritual beauty. At a time when we all need to take care of ourselves, there’s no better way to do so than with an online yoga practice with J. We were amazed at how she was able to guide us through the practice as if we were in the same room. Highly, highly recommended!

What a wonderful way to stay connected with J during this time! I used to practice yoga with J when she lived in So. California. So I was THRILLED that she was able to offer livestream classes via Zoom. It is amazing to see her in action again & to "meet" her local groups there in Holyoke. That community is very fortunate to have both her and John in the area. Two of the most gifted healers I know. I look forward to her guidance, even though technology. She provides excellent support and makes the session FUN! I do miss her but this is the next best thing!

Both my yoga and massage experiences at Ingleside Therapeutic have been outstanding. J and John bring such inspiring levels of skill, dedication, and care to their practice. J’s yoga sessions truly create space for mental and physical growth. She is attentive to all class members and fosters an environment that has felt so welcoming and community-oriented. Massage with John has brought much relief when experiencing severe and targeted tension. So fortunate that these two practice in Holyoke!

It has been such a joy to work with J and John. They both have in-depth knowledge about the body and an innate understanding of the spirit. They each create a safe space where healing can occur. I've been experiencing some shoulder pain and stress over the last few months. Yoga sessions with J and craniosacral therapy with John have left me feeling relaxed and pain-free. I can't recommend them enough!

I have been a client of John's for about 5 years. I receive a deep tissue massage about once a month. It has really helped to keep my spine and entire body flexible and feeling good. It has been especially helpful for my golf swing. The service is great and fairly priced. I highly recommend Ingleside Massage to anyone who is interested in ridding their body of all of life's little knots and kinks.

I have been a yoga student at Ingleside for about 3 months. As a 20-year yoga practitioner, I am VERY picky about my yoga classes. J's classes are among the best that I've ever attended. She is simply a great teacher: compassionate and highly skilled therapeutically. She accommodates students with a wide range of experience and limitations. She deeply honors the mind-body-spirit connection. One of the best attributes is that the classes are truly judgment-free and not at all competitive.
