ABOUT GENESIS

Integrative

mind-body therapy

In a world that is often overwhelming and high-stress, many of us are living with pain and highly active nervous systems. Physical health can influence our mental well-being. And our mental and emotional state can significantly impact our physical health.

Stress, anxiety, and emotional distress can manifest as physical symptoms or exacerbate existing conditions. At Genesis, we are passionate about collaborative care so you can find relief from pain, trauma, or the everyday stressors of life.

About Manual Fascia Release Therapy

Manual Fascia Release

Therapy

Fascial Counterstrain Therapy is a specialized approach to manual therapy that focuses on relieving pain and restoring optimal function by addressing dysfunction within the body’s fascial system. Fascia is a connective tissue that surrounds and supports muscles, organs, and other structures in the body. This therapy involves gentle, precise movements that aim to release tension and strain, allowing for improved circulation, flexibility, and overall well-being.

By identifying and treating tender points and specific areas of fascial restriction, Fascial Counterstrain Therapy promotes a deep healing response, reducing pain, enhancing range of motion, and facilitating the body’s natural ability to heal itself. It is a holistic and non-invasive approach that can be beneficial for a wide range of conditions, including musculoskeletal pain, sports injuries, postural imbalances, and chronic pain syndromes. At Genesis, we can treat all ages including high school/college athletes, babies, and anyone who is in pain.

If your doctor and lab work say that you’re fine, but you still don’t feel well, and you’re tired of not feeling like yourself, or if you’re seeking pain relief without relying solely on prescriptions and are ready to release inflammation and anxiety, come see us!

Tools you need for Life.

We view counseling as a means to a beginning. Tired of feeling like you are faking it in life, have you reached a plateau in your personal growth, relationships, or career? Do you feel life has gotten out of control or something is holding you back? Are you looking for answers about yourself and the world around you? Psychotherapy can help identify personal roadblocks, increase courage, and regain authenticity. Life is a balance of cause and effect – if you are not having the effect you want, then we can work together to find the cause. Let’s explore who you are, and where you are and develop a plan to get you where you want to be.

We believe you are not broken but only undiscovered. After all, being down only makes you one step closer to rising up. Our goal is to help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself and give you the encouragement, tools, and confidence that you need to create a life of your choosing.

What our clients have to say

Testimonial Quotation Marks

Tessa is an amazing person. She is so sweet and so caring and she really wants people to be better. Manual Fascial Release Therapy has helped improve my knees, back, and lumber. I would be in terrible shape without Tessa.

Sue

CLIENT

Testimonial Quotation Marks

When my pain gets bad, I go in to be adjusted. Tessa has fixed so many of my back issues — I look forward when I go in there cause I know I’m going to walk out feeling better. Tessa is a great person and I appreciate the effort she puts into correcting my issues.

CLIENT

Testimonial Quotation Marks

I’m 70 years old and at my age, things happen so gradually that you don’t realize that you’re weakening. For me the results of counterstrain were instant. It was like I had my old energy back

Pam

CLIENT

Testimonial Quotation Marks

Tessa helped me achieve not only physical transformations but also enabled me to return to work and take on demanding tasks I couldn’t have imagined before. Now, I’m running circles around others and keeping up with my girls—something I hadn’t thought possible a year ago.
