Would you like to take advantage of an authentic healing resource to facilitate well being and revive your fluid body?

If I told you using gentle, consistent pressure, intentional focus, and resonance between our bio-electrical beings of liquid light… 
that we all have limitless potential for healing…. 

Would you believe me? Long enough to suspend what you think you know and try something that might lead you towards authentic healing, living and moving through life IN JOY?

Would you like to take advantage of an authentic healing resource to facilitate well being and revive your fluid body?

If I told you using gentle, consistent pressure, intentional focus, and resonance between our bio-electrical beings of liquid light… 
that we all have limitless potential for healing…. 

Would you believe me? Long enough to suspend what you think you know and try something that might lead you towards authentic healing, living and moving through life IN JOY?

Not to mention assisting you if you’re living through any of these issues:

… needing your kneading to dive deeper into your issues and last longer than the time it takes to drive home
… chronic myofascial and joint pain (back, neck, shoulders, knees, hips… all the areas that move… or don’t anymore): 
… frustrated with managing pain meds or injections that nearly work 
… undiagnosed issues or test after test concluding it’s “all in your head”
… feeling disconnected, “stuck”, or “trapped” in your tense and tight tissues
… survey says “surgery is your only option”
… you’re feeling disheartened by the lack of “care” in our health care and just know there’s got to be a better way… 
… maybe even all the above …

If you’re walking any of the paths mentioned above or one of your own the John F. Barnes Myofascial Release Approach may be the one to lead you down the path InTouch, InCourage, and InJOY. 

Life isn’t fair and horrible things happen to all of us but even if we CAN’T change what’s happened, we CAN embrace the opportunity to live through the pain, let it move through us, and let that sh*t go!

With an experienced and gentle guide we can finally find acceptance and awareness to help us move through our hurts and trapped emotions and allow ourselves to facilitate healing.  By adopting the perspective of pain as a messenger, it becomes a beacon to lead us deeper and tend to our hurts with authentic healing from within.

Give yourself permission to let go and LIVE the life flowing through you… allow your being to get InTouch with feeling, InCourage your body towards healing and InJOY the feeling of BEING ALIVE every movement.

Sonya’s training in the John F. Barnes Myofascial Release (MFR) Approach for relief from chronic pain, postural misalignment, and repetitive injury helps her facilitate her intuition and expertise in restorative movement for full body recovery through hands on structural bodywork, MFR, and Fascianation Method self-myofascial instruction, giving her clients access to a fluid combination of experience, authenticity, and compassion. 

Raised in Sparks, NV, Sonya has been practicing massage for over 20 years, fifteen of which were spent studying and practicing in Honolulu, Hawaii, learning to live Aloha and use movement and bodywork as a way of facilitating and encouraging well being. After receiving her massage training at Reno's Ralston School of Massage in 2001 she was immediately hired as the massage therapist for the University of Hawaii Swimming & Diving teams, in exchange for a full scholarship. In 2005 she gradated from the University of Hawaii, Manoa with a B.A. in Psychology and spent the next 10 years building her personal massage and bodywork practice emphasizing in sports massage, repetitive injury recovery, triathlon training, coaching, and treating every human as a whole being, not just a collection of tissue issues and injured body parts. 

Along with her bodywork practice Sonya shares her passion for movement and sports as a part-time yoga, barre, cross training, cycling, swimming, and running Coach with KaiaFIT Carson and Minden.

Practicing the art of Myofascial Release Therapy and the sport of living puts Sonya’s whole being InTouch with feeling, InCouraging her clients to move fluidly to create long lasting change, and those who work with her will testify moving through life InJOY! 

Let’s alchemize our relationship with pain together,
InTouch,
InCourage,
InJOY

Who knew that bodywork, conversation, and education were going to be my experience with Sonya. This was my first treatment and I have 2 more scheduled. Thank you!

I've only had one session with Sonya but it was very meaningful. She taught me so much about the mind and body and external environment connection. I am so excited to continue learning about me and how to help my body , physically and mentally. I'd absolutely recommend seeing her. She's calming and kind and understanding.

There’s not enough room in this comments box to explain how wonderful Sonya is and how much my body has released and healed since I started seeing her 2 years ago. I’ve been getting normal massage since I was a teenager, but this is completely different and has been so instrumental in my health and well-being! So thankful!
