One of the first questions I've been asked by multiple people is "Why are you named Wood Tiger Massage?" There are a few reasons. Everyone else is naming their business after themselves (i.e. a name) or something with the words "healing" and "hands". I am not interested in being just like everyone else. But for convention sake, I am naming my business after me.
I am a Wood or Green Tiger, born in the chinese zodiac year associated with these symbols. My practice consists of a mixture of techniques from a wide set of bodywork fields, including Tuina, Myofascial release, Traditional Thai, Micromovement, PUSH Therapy(tm), Percussive, and a couple of others, as well as influences from Cranial Sacral(tm) work and Rolfing(tm).
Please note, when it says "influenced" that means I have no formal training in these techniques. I have recieved this work, paid attention and adapted some of the techniques for my own. Most work is slanted toward issue resolution rather than whole body wellness, but all sessions include a whole body wellness componet.

Like many small bodywork shops, Wood Tiger Massage is Carrie Jones.
I spent much of my youth working on my mother (who happened to have back problems and foot problems) and some of my college days working on the shoulders of fellow computer science students.
After a rather unsatisfying career in the computer industry I attended school at Big Sky Somatic Institute (a school which has sadly closed it's doors since then, a loss to the world.)
I graduated in 2004 with a certificate in Asian Healing.

Bodywork is a form of massage therapy.
However, while most massage therapy (circulatory massage, deep tissue) is concentrated on relaxation, bodywork is about improvement in function, reduction of pain and wellbeing through techniques beyond the standard range of most entry level massage therapists.
Why should you care?
Do you have pain that a circulatory massage helps for a while, but it just keeps coming back?
Have you ever had a migraine?
Ever had surgury, or injury that feels like it never got back to 100 percent?
