Chronic Neck and TMJ issues almost always require more than one treatment in order to produce permanent change because there is a nervous system component involved in this condition; that must be re-habituated.I therefore strongly suggest that TMJ clients start their treatment with a 3 series.

I've had 2 sessions so far with Shalene and have been extremely pleased both times. As a senior, recovering from a car accident last year, I have need of sensitive, accurate fascial work to release the constrictions that have complicated the effect of scoliosis. She has extensive experience, excellent intuition and an ability to adjust her touch/pressure to the level of damage of each area of the body. I know of only 1 other fascial therapist in town who works at this level of skill. We are fortunate to have her services. Highly recommended!

Shalene's expertise includes back, neck, and jaw work. At my surgeon's recommendation I have regular massages to manage the aftermath of 4 back surgeries, and I only like/benefit from deep tissue. Shalene understands how to give precise, targeted deep tissue massages that are effective without being aggressive. If you're looking for muscle, tension, and pain relief—make an appointment!
She also does something called Raindrop therapy, which makes use of essential oils to help boost your immune system. Her talent is diverse, and she's an astute listener. Her space is calm and welcoming, and she

Whitney is absolutely incredible!! I have seen her many times now for neck and nerve pain (have had for months) and headaches (have had for a year). She really focuses on individual needs to come up with the best patient centered care plan. She has a natural talent for working with people and is magic with what she does. She is constantly learning new techniques which I think is incredibly important (and rare) in the health care field. She is compassionate, attentive and caring. Overall I have less stress and no pain. I wouldn’t be where I am today without her help! I highly recommend Whitney

I had an amazing experience!!! Whitney really focuses on your personal needs and continues to check in during the massage to make sure you are getting what you need! More than that she is honest about what she thinks you would need in the future! She really is a down to earth and it was the best massage I’ve ever had. I have recommended several others to her and they all love working with Whitney!!!

I had my first session with Shalene yesterday and my back feels so much better today. She is able to use deep pressure without overdoing it. I stand all day at work and get extremely tight in my lower back/glutes so she focused a lot on these areas. The studio is clean and calming. I’ve already scheduled for 2 weeks out.

Whitney gave me the best massage I've ever had. I had real problems that needed work, with shooting pains down my right leg that had been bothering me for months. The atmosphere was calm and soothing, as you would expect at a good massage parlor, and Whitney has amazing hands and a great knowledge of the body and how your muscles and connective tissues work. What impressed me most, though, was that she really took the time to listen to what I needed help with and to make she she was understanding me correctly. The pain is gone, and has not returned after a couple of months. I will definitely be

I just had a TMJ treatment by Shalene and absolutely loved it. It's such a rare treatment and yet so beneficial. I have a "click" in my jaw and this massage helps to release it. It's so relaxing. I will be honest, at first I thought it's weird to let somebody massage my jaw. Once I tried it once, I'm a big fan. As it turned out, I keep a lot of tension in my jaw. What a great relief to let it go. Shalene is very gentle and intuitive, yet she knows when and where to press on. I highly recommend this treatment!
