Heather Baker Myofascial Release Therapy

Heather is a talented and intuitive massage therapist and has helped me so much over the past several years. I suffer from vertigo and tinnitus and the release work she has done for my head and neck has been invaluable.

Myofascial release therapy is the only variety of massage therapy that has ever given me significant relief from chronic pain. Heather is the most knowledgeable, careful, and effective massage therapist I have ever worked with. (I've tried half a dozen at least for more than one treatment over the years. No one has come close.) Heather's treatments involve minimal pain and maximum benefit.Her instructions on providing self-treatment between sessions have been giving me my life back - but you have to ACTUALLY do what she recommends to get additional benefits between sessions. Typically, my physical health and chronic pain levels are much better for several weeks.Heather is easygoing and straightforward. Whether you prefer conversation, silence, or soft indie music (none of that stereotypical pan-flute nonsense) she is happy to accommodate you. She communicates very well. I believe she has truly found her calling.Finally, I am a large woman who has body image issues, and Heather has done so much over the last few years of treatment to help me actively learn to love my body - mentally and physically, and I am very grateful.I have always felt so respected, heard, and taken care of with Heather, and I hope you will, too.

Heather 's ability to see subtle patterns in your body that create pain and then release the fascia that holds that pain is incredible! She is knowledgeable and cares about the people that see her. Heather's goal is to get you to stop coming back and she does everything she can to help you heal. Thank you Heather!

My wife and I have seen Heather exclusively for several years now. She is the absolute best at what she does. I highly recommend a 90 minute treatment. She accomplishes much of what deep tissue treatments can but without the sharp pressure applied. We would highly recommend her.

Heather is a very talented myofascial release therapist and one of the loveliest people I have ever met. Appointments with her and the advice she has provided to me over the six plus years I have been seeing her have helped my body move and feel better. Her space in the New Roots building is very cozy and welcoming. If you're looking to incorporate myofascial therapy into your therapy routine, Heather is the person you are looking for.

Heather is an excellent practitioner and overall a really cool human to connect with. She's really intuitive and respectful, and you can tell that she cares deeply about her clients and the work that she does. Her treatments and the knowledge that she has shared have helped me deal with some chronic back and shoulder issues, and I'm in a much better shape now than I was prior to being her client. She frequently offers techniques and tips for things to do at home, so you can feel good in between treatments. Also, as a plus-size person, she's never made me feel weird about my size and her space is incredibly comfortable and accessible.10/10, will always recommend!

Truly one of the most healing treatments I have ever received. Heather is intentional, skilled and intuitive. I'll be a devoted patient from now on!

Heather has been my massage and myofascial therapist for over a year now and I can't imagine working with anyone else. She uses her intuition, skill and knowledge to locate the source of distress and relieve it. She has helped me heal physical injuries and release painful emotions, tension and stress. Heather is kind and warm and has an incredible sense of humor. Her space is warm, inviting and soothing - my next appointment never feels like it comes soon enough!

Over the 10 years I have been seeing Heather, she has helped with with a wide range of problems which include: TMJ, anxiety, sciatic nerve issues, and various injuries and alignment problems. She keeps a scrupulously clean and inviting space and I always leave much better than when I arrived. She loves her work and is always taking new training to add to her toolkit. Bless you Heather Baker.

I wish Heather wasn't as good as she is so I could see her more! Working with Heather, and not having her work on me, has helped me to understand how to breathe again, to learn the importance of releasing and truly letting go, healing both physically and emotionally together. Heather helps me to get to those places in my body that are wound up so tightly with all the experiences of my life that are hard, scary, difficult, joyous, sad or all of these things. With her along the way and where ever we go in the treatment, I have learned how to face and release with gratitude these traumas and experiences in the places of my body where I am holding this trauma and pain. I have been able to, as a result, take and use these learnings 'outside' on my own. Heather has taught me alot and I am very grateful and thankful to have found her.
