Hi! I’m Connie. I’m a massage therapist and yogi located in Birmingham, Alabama. I do Deep Tissue, Neuromuscular, Relaxation Massage, and Trauma-Informed Bodywork.
I extol the virtues of Ashtanga Yoga to anyone who will listen, and teach the fundamentals of Ashtanga in an accessible manner. I understand the autonomic and somatic nature of both massage therapy and yoga, and the benefits of using these modalities as tools to build and nurture physical and mental wellbeing.
It is my mission to assist others in developing and maintaining their strength, stability, balance, and mobility so they can live a more abundant life.
At age 59, overwhelmed and in need of mental peace, I found the powerful practice of Ashtanga Yoga. I also had the privilege to find a remarkable massage therapist.
The physical, mental, and emotionally palliative nature of both massage therapy and yoga, coupled with the strength and physical ability developed through my practice, changed the course of my life.
I am a born caregiver, and the ability to provide comfort, care, healing, acceptance, and empowerment to others through both Massage Therapy and Yoga is the opportunity of a lifetime.
As a Licensed Massage Therapist and RYT 200 Yoga Instructor, I want to meet you where you are, find out what you need, share with you my experience, what I have learned, and help you find out just how stable, strong, and functional you can be.

Neuromuscular Massage Therapy (NMT)
-
NMT is a specialized form of manual therapy used to release trigger points in muscles and tendons causing pain or dysfunction in the body. The work focuses upon the five elements which cause pain – nerve compression, decreased blood flow, biomechanical dysfunction, postural distortion, and trigger points. Sessions may or may not include a full-body massage, as the target of treatment is the specific area of discomfort. Looking at the muscles and structures which feed into the pain, neuromuscular massage manipulates muscles, tendons, and other connective tissues to re-establish balance within the body’s central nervous system. NMT can reduce the intensity of the referred pain, which often includes sensations like tingling or numbness.
