Massage Therapy and Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy conveniently located in downtown Vancouver, WA
My name is Deb Baxter and I am a Licensed Massage Therapist of 21 years, as well as a Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist. I specialize in TMJ dysfunction and head, neck, and shoulder pain. Along with my specialty I offer Intuitive Therapeutic Massage, where I tune into to the client’s nervous system and adjust the massage based on what the client’s body needs.
I myself, have dealt with chronic pain and TMJ dysfunction for many decades, and this has driven me to seek out ways to lessen similar pain and tension for my clients. I completed training and received certification for intra-oral massage from the state of Washington in 2013, and have specialized in it since then.
More recently, In September 2023 I completed a two-year program and received certification for Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy. This modality has allowed for deeper resolution of pain by directly accessing the nervous system, and assisting in the metabolization of trauma that is stored throughout the body. Thus, offering the potential for dynamic improvements in noninvasive ways.
I approach each client with a calm and grounded presence while holding space for the client’s body to feel seen and safe. This allows for the release of soft tissue holding patterns, where pain and dysfunction reside.
