Jessica's Bodywork and Wellness

I am a 2010 Graduate of the Boulder College of Massage Therapy 1000+ hr program. I began the first few years of my massage career by working in a few chiropractic offices, I enjoyed helping people heal and progress through injuries and chronic pain patterns, and learned so much about incorporating both therapies.

After a couple incredible visits to the Eastern Sierra, I made the moved to the Bishop area in May of 2013. I started working in Mammoth for about a year at the Healing arts centre, then moved to full time in Bishop with a practice now for over 3 years. Other activities I enjoy are painting, gardening, baking, hiking, mountain biking, rock hounding, yoga, & pilates, studying nutrition and serving occasional tea ceremonies.

One of the many aspects I love about my job is that it doesn't feel like "work" ~ I enjoy establishing relationships with each client, giving adequate time for a thorough check-in before each session to establish a focus for that particular day, making sure I understand exactly what they need in that moment. I love providing an unhurried environment, I believe it initiates relaxation before the massage even begins. I love working with everyone, from recovery for athletes to comfort massage for geriatrics. I am always learning more as I grow in my career, and love practicing new techniques to broaden my scope of practice.

My advanced training's include Swedish, Zen Shiatsu (Accupressure) , Deep Tissue, Myofacial Release, Trigger Point Therapy, Reflexology, Vibrational Medicine, Facial Massage, and Cupping. Each session is customized to meet each clients unique needs. I will be continuing my education in Sarga Massage in 2018, a special massage technique originating from Hawaii, similar to Ashiatsu (Deep barefoot massage)
