Berkeley Massage Therapy for Pain Relief

Jordan Rothstein CMT

I've been practicing massage therapy since 1986. I've worked on athletes, carpenters, construction workers, dancers, engineers, martial artists, massage therapists, musicians, office workers, psychotherapists, scientists, software developers, writers, etc. Every body has the same anatomy; the same principles and techniques can be applied to any body.

Massage Therapy Helps

Massage therapy can help you get relief from pain, get rid of chronic tension, and recover from injuries. You can have better posture, deeper breathing, and easier movement. Massage therapy can treat back pain, headaches, neck pain, TMJ pain, wrist pain, scoliosis pain, sciatica, sports injuries, dance injuries, plantar fascitis, shin splints, etc.

Results-Oriented Massage Therapy

I do problem solving. Where it hurts may not be where the problem is. Sometimes back pain comes from the front, or elsewhere. I find the causes of your pain by asking you questions, listening, looking at your alignment, examining with my hands, and thinking. I know the body thoroughly, and have mastered a range of methods to help you.

Massage Therapy That Treats the Causes of Pain

Pain can be caused by: Muscle tension, twists and bends in the spine, tension in the gut, trigger points, inflexible ligaments, fixated joints, adhesions, etc. I can find and fix all of it for you. A client called this deeply intelligent massage. Massage that really helps.

No Spa Massage Here

If you're looking for powerful massage therapy that changes things, you're in the right place. You won't get a standard spa massage routine, you will get individualized treatment.
