Hi - I'm Julia.
When I was young, I remember my mom melting into the couch as I kneaded her tired shoulders at the end of each long day. It was my attempt at staying up past bedtime, but it left a lasting impression on me. How honored I am to use the gift of positive touch to help many others since that time!
When I'm not in the studio, my dog takes me for runs on my favorite forest trails around Gresham. I also love kickin' it with the people I love most - trying a new dinner spot, hitting some mountain bike trails, or cruising to the beach for a day. My favorite season is Gresham Farmers Market season!
Background
I have a strong foundation and enthusiasm for therapeutic bodywork, cultivated through years of experience in a chiropractic environment. My goal is to assist you in relieving tension and stress, enabling you to enjoy your best, pain-free life. Tailoring each session to the unique needs of my clients, I employ a range of massage techniques - deep tissue, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, & active/passive range-of-motion stretches to name a few - to help you achieve your wellness objectives. This involves a blend of scientific understanding of the body & a holistic perspective by delving into the habits and patterns that influence our day-to-day lives.
I completed my studies at the East West College of Healing Arts in Portland, OR in 2019. Subsequently, I pursued various continuing education courses, with a particular emphasis on:
- Prenatal massage
- Chronic pain management
- Sports injury recovery
- Oncology Massage
Moreover, I have successfully undertaken a comprehensive series of college-level anatomy and pathophysiology courses to ensure that my treatments are well-informed and effective.
