What I Do: At Therapeutic Bodywork of South Austin, my focus is on treating and resolving soft tissue problems, be they from injury or overuse. I use deep tissue myofascial release of several varieties to restore function and range of motion, reduce pain and improve performance. Other modalities I use include electric therapy with the Neubie device, cupping and assisted stretching. Although there are many benefits to a relaxation massage, it is simply not what I do or a service I offer.
How Much Is It?: I charge $60 for 30 minute sessions, and $120 for 60 minutes (I accept cash, check, Venmo or PayPal). Packages are also available at reduced rates ($500 for 5 60min sessions, and $1000 for 10). Although I don't do any direct billing through medical insurance, I'm more than happy to provide receipts in case you can be partially or fully reimbursed through your carrier.
What To Wear: Gym clothes work well for much of the work I do; full draping is of course used when necessary. For lower body work, stretchable workout shorts are helpful.
Can It Hurt?: Short answer, yes. Although I am never trying to create pain, discomfort and occasional bruising can be a byproduct of the work I do. I always aim to make the work as painless as possible while still being effective.
How To Schedule: Text or call to set up an appointment: (512) 638-1075. I look forward to hearing from you.
Directions: My office is located in far South Austin, actually about as far south as you can go and still be in Austin. I am in the red and blue buildings on Frate Barker across from the FuelWise gas station. The actual entrance to the complex is off of Rancho Alto Road. There is marked guest parking in several spots, but parking on the street is also perfectly fine. My office is in suite 1101, above Austin Athletic Performance and Recovery Physical Therapy. As you go in there will be a door leading to my office to the immediate right.
