Brittany Blocker, LMT

Brittany combines knowledge, intuition, and strength to provide a therapeutic massage that truly sets the groundwork for the body to repair itself. 

Using mainly a mix of Neuromuscular Therapy, Connective Tissue therapy, and Deep Tissue massage, pain and dysfunction can be corrected by treating trigger points, muscle adhesions, and fascial (connective tissue) patterns. These trigger points, adhesions and fascial patterns can form due to a specific trauma, postural pattern, or series of repetitive movements.

Brittany uses her knowledge of these modalities during your personalized massage session. She is very experienced in dealing with chronic pain, loss of range of motion, scar tissue, and injuries and has helped over 500 clients in the area work towards a healthier and pain free lifestyle.
