Teresa Stachowiak, Certified Myofascial Therapist, LMT

If you’re living with pain, tightness, or tension that hasn’t responded to other treatments, Myofascial Therapy may be the missing piece.

I focus on helping people move out of chronic pain and back into ease. My approach is grounded in the John Barnes method of Myofascial Release, a gentle, effective therapy that works with the body, not against it.

In 2003, I was in constant pain. After four years of searching for answers, I finally experienced real healing through Myofascial Therapy. That experience didn’t just restore my body; it changed the course of my life.I knew I wanted to help others find the same kind of relief. Since 2010, I’ve been doing just that.

I’m a state-licensed, nationally certified Institute of Natural Therapies graduate. My practice is rooted in the belief that everyone deserves the chance to live without pain and that healing should be gentle, natural, and respectful of the whole person.

I never realized you should be able to turn your head and not have pain until I met Teresa Stachowiak. Her hands are magical and her knowledge that of a truly intelligent woman that doesn’t just heal your body, but shares it with you to use in your everyday life.

Teresa and myofascial release have helped me numerous times in the past couple of years. Whether I’ve had issues from “over doing” it or tightness from stress and life I have always left my appointments with better range of motion and less pain. Teresa even healed my trigger thumb! MFR has become a regular part of my life.

Before I started MFR Therapy with Teresa I suffered such severe back pain that I could barely walk. I had tried numerous types of therapy. Alone these other therapies did not remedy my pain. MFR Therapy was the missing puzzle piece to my recovery. Today after MFR Therapy I’m back to an active lifestyle.

Myofascial Release can be life-changing for those who suffer from chronic pain. Teresa’s knowledge and skill level in this specialized therapy is second to none. She has helped me and others I know live with less pain and more freedom of movement.

I would highly recommend Teresa for her advanced knowledge, skill, and experience, of Myofascial Release work. Teresa has given my body more flexibility, release of scar tissue (and the tension that it causes) as well as pain relief and relaxation of fascia, muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

Lisa S.

 

Myofascial Therapy worked for me where months of chiropractic, massage, and physical therapy fell short. Teresa’s gentle coaxing gave my body the ability to heal. I can walk, run, ski, and swim better than ever. I recommend Myofascial Therapy to everyone with pain or dysfunction.
