Myofascial Release is a specialized type of manual/massage therapy that uses sustained pressure into the connective tissue called fascia. The time element is crucial in that it takes a minimum of at least 1/2 to 2 minutes for the fascia restrictions to even begin to release. Any release you may feel before that is superficial and will not have "lasting" results.

I've known Patricia and Michelle for many years, and have always seen, and experienced, their passion for taking care of others. They are dedicated healers, at a multitude of levels. They have helped me, through the years, with my peripheral neuropathy condition. Just recently, Patricia, (through a phone call) talked me through a process, of using a tennis ball, on my back, to relieve a muscle spasm, that I couldn't otherwise get rid of. It was just this side of miraculous, that the pain had subsided, only after a couple of treatments. They will be my "go-to", and I will adore them, forever.

Lifesaver! I hurt my back picking up my infant from his crib. With everything being closed I was afraid that I was going to be out of commission for awhile. Patricia got on a couple Skype sessions with me and helped me with a some exercises that got me back on my feet! I highly recommend Body & Soul wellness!

For the past 8 years, I have had issues with tendonitis with my right arm/elbow & my left thumb area. I am a bartender/server and my thumb has now gotten so bad I can't even hold a glass without pain. I went to see Michelle, and after just one session with myofascial release, the difference is unbelievable! It still hurts, but it's not inflamed, and I can pick up a glass without pain. Michelle was very clear and informative about what exercises to do at home. I will be going back twice a week!

Both Michelle and Patricia are experts in their field and they have my full trust when I need myofascial release to help alleviate pain and tension. The self home care therapy Michelle has instructed me on has made a tremendous difference in my life, it's diminished my pain to 0 most days, expanded my flexibility, and with discomfort gone I can focus, relax, and sleep so much better. Highly Recommend.

I have experienced great relief and healing in many areas of my body through Myofascial Release Therapy. This therapy has helped me to gain a fuller understanding of how our body speaks to us and how entwined our emotions, fears and wounds are with our physical pain. By committing to regular therapy sessions and to the exercises at home I am now virtually pain free. I am eternally grateful for this therapy and for Michelle and Patricia at Body and Soul.

I had severe hip and shoulder pain which went undiagnosed by doctors. I had several sessions with Patricia and left much looser and more flexible without pain. Her gentle but sturdy pressure in just the right places really alleviated tension, stress and the soreness I had experienced for weeks. I will definitely be a repeat customer. These gals know exactly what they're doing to help clients become much more comfortable and able to manage discomfort.

Went there today and am very happy. I went to another place for electrolysis and it ended up being vey expensive tweezing - their words not mine. So I was looking for a place to get electrolysis and ended up meeting Holly. I explained my predicament and she explained the whole hair growth process along with what electrolysis will do to hair growth. Skip to end of appointment and I noticed that everything was smooth, my skin didn't feel burned nor did I have black and blue marks (it happened at the other place.) i already made my next appointment and if I'm lucky I'm going to be hair
