THE HENDRICKSON METHOD
The Hendrickson Method ® is a sophisticated form of alignment-based bodywork that invites functional change into the body. Every joint, muscle, tendon, ligament, nerve, organ, and gland has an optimal position relative to the surrounding structures. This optimal alignment is associated with optimal function. When any part of the body is misaligned due to injury, posture, emotional distress, etc., the nervous system is agitated. Communication through the whole body system is disrupted, predisposing us to pain and discomfort, both physical and emotional.
Our intention is to guide your body into optimum function by alleviating these restrictions that come from the normal wear and tear of repetitive stresses, as well as from acute injuries. Through hands-on therapy, we invite functional balance into the body by releasing restrictions and facilitating weak or atrophied muscles.
At the heart of Hendrickson Method® is the innovative wave mobilization stroke. These massage strokes mimic the ebb and flow of ocean waves, pulsating and penetrating deep within the body. The effect is deeply relaxing and healing.
HM® treatments also include Muscle Energy Technique, or MET. The active participation of the client with the therapist involves higher brain functions to dramatically change chronic pain patterns and reprogram neurological patterns of habitual tightness or weakness.
The Hendrickson Method® is appropriate for most anybody at any stage of life. Overall results that you can experience include significant pain relief, enhanced range of motion, improved athletic performance, improved posture and body awareness, and a profound sense of balance and relaxation.

"Jennifer was recommended by a local MD as one of the top yoga instructors in town. I started attending her yoga classes during treatment and recovery from cancer. In addition to yoga, I had regular Energy Balancing healing sessions on the BioMat with Jennifer. These relaxing and grounding sessions influenced my speedy recovery. After healing from surgery, Jennifer added the Hendrickson Method of massage to help heal scar tissue and rehabilitation of cells. Her deep commitment to physical, emotional, and spiritual health coupled with her loving and compassionate sense of grace makes her one of my favorite healing goddesses. Being in her light presence is always nurturing and fun." - Marcia Patrice Ganeles
