Hey there! It’s so nice to have you here, I’m Lindsay. Let me share a little about me and Myofascial Release, here we go..

I discovered the effects of hands-on healing at a young age while practicing on friends and family. In college, my friends would rush to sit at my feet when I sat on the couch. While studying nursing, my love for anatomy led me to realize that a career in massage therapy aligned better with my interests and abilities. I graduated from Utah College of Massage Therapy in 2004 and successfully helped numerous dedicated clients achieve and maintain their best level of wellness. I managed to balance my career with starting a family, embarking on adventures while pursuing my passion for healing.

I am a competitor and athlete at heart, enjoying activities like softball, volleyball, running, hiking, swimming, biking, and yoga, always striving to improve myself. Although I still find joy in some of these activities, my main focus now is managing and supporting my family's busy schedule, and we make time for travel whenever possible. My spouse and I are blessed with four dynamic children, each with their own exciting abilities.

In the midst of my active lifestyle, I began to experience headaches and back pain. Despite trying various alternative remedies, progress was often a mix of steps forward and back. In the spring of 2016, during my fourth pregnancy, something shifted, and I started suffering from debilitating cluster headaches and migraines several days a week. Seeking relief, I was introduced to Myofascial Release by a new massage therapist. Over numerous treatments, my headaches became less frequent, and the tightness and pain in my body began to dissolve. Regular activities slowly returned, and I discovered a newfound peace in my body and mind that I had never known before. Regular Myofascial Release treatments became essential, allowing me to feel better than I had in decades, even at a stage in my life where that seemed improbable.

This experience planted a seed, sparking my curiosity to learn more about Myofascial Release for the benefit of my clients. After years of research and personal preparation, and waiting for my kids to be old enough for me to be away, I attended several courses from John F. Barnes in his Myofascial Release Method. Diving deep into this realm of advanced healing, more authentic and enduring than any bodywork treatment I have encountered, has been one of my greatest joys in life. Discovering a passion so profoundly rewarding on multiple levels is a rare and unique privilege. I continue to be a dedicated student in this work, attending and repeating courses, all while striving for excellence.
