My name is Jana and I’ve been a massage therapist/ body worker for 12+ yrs. For a short period of time I lived in LA and thats where I first went to massage school in 2011/2012 at the incomparable Institute of Psycho Structural Balancing (IPSB). I studied a wide range in both physical and energetic modalities alongside Anatomy/Physiology, Pathology, & other standard coursework. Upon graduation I was set to move to beautiful Flagstaff for a short stint before heading back home to sunny Phoenix. I went back to massage school to obtain the necessary hours for my Arizona license at another wonderful school up in Clarkdale/Cottonwood called ASIS - the Arizona School of Integrated Studies. I furthered my studies in Eastern, Energetic, and structural work while there before graduating again…license in hand!
My focus now is to help people achieve true health & relief from pain through the alignment of their physical bodies with their energetic pathways & fields. A person’s lifestyle determines their health and vice versa. Clean diet, exercise, supportive social/family life, spiritual practice of choice, good sleep, & adequate hydration are all components of a healthy, happy life! Your body will take care of you if you take care of it.
I use a blend of techniques from circulatory (Swedish), deep tissue, Connective Tissue Therapy/structural, trigger point, cupping, Polarity therapy, Craniosacral therapy, Thai massage, Acupressure, aromatherapy, and a deep understanding of anatomy to do my work. I also provide Prenatal and Birth Ready massage for the mamas out there.
Body and energy work are excellent forms of preventative health care, something we all deserve. Your body will be realigned and relaxed - say goodbye to pain, tissue and joint quality will improve, and your mood will be elevated! Touch is a wonderful way to get connected to yourself, the world you live in, and the way you move through it:)
