Addicted to Massage

Massage Therapist

Myofascial Release is a safe and very effective hands-on technique that involves applying gentle sustained pressure into the Myofascial connective tissue restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion. This essential “time element” has to do with the viscous flow and the piezoelectric phenomenon: a low load (gentle pressure) applied slowly will allow a viscoelastic medium (fascia) to elongate.

Trauma, inflammatory responses, and/or surgical procedures create Myofascial restrictions that can produce tensile pressures of approximately 2,000 pounds per square inch on pain sensitive structures that do not show up in many of the standard tests (x-rays, myelograms, CAT scans, electromyography, etc.)

The use of Myofascial Release allows me to look at each client as a unique individual. My one-on-one therapy sessions are hands-on treatments during which I use a multitude of Myofascial Release techniques and movement therapy. I promote independence through education in proper body mechanics and movement, self treatment instruction, enhancement of strength, improved flexibility, and postural and movement awareness.

    I have experienced many types of massage therapy by many massage therapists over the past 20+ years. Nothing and nobody compares to the healing and results that Tiffaney provides. She's a myofascial massage therapist, and she's exceptional and has provided relief like no other! Do yourself a big favor, and get in to see her!

    Tiffany is amazing! Was referred by my Crossfit gym three years ago for muscle tension. She is a miracle worker. Most impressive is her ability to not hurt me at all while also totally loosening me up. (Conventional massage can be quite painful for me, as I have a lot of tension.) I found I was able to improve my performance at Crossfit (way better general flexibility--e.g. could go deeper on my squats) to improved singing during voice lessons--random, right?! I definitely recommend giving Tiffany a try. Worth every penny.

    Absolutely an amazing, one of a kind massage experience. I'm officially converted from my deep tissue massage loving ways to this new style of myofascial release. Tiffaney's intuitive nature and expert technique transported me to a deep space of relaxation and release. After one session on her amazingly comfortable table, I consider myself addicted to massage :)

    By far the most effective and relaxing massage that I have ever received. I've tried deep tissue, Swedish, Thai and hot stone massage and the MFR technique that she uses felt transformational. Aches and pains gone!! I will be going to Tiffaney from now on.
