Ben Schwartz , LMT
Licensed Massage Therapist
"Bodywork is communication with the body's tissues. I listen to how the fascia and organs want to interact and relate with one another, and where tension and restrictions are being held. Often a gentle facilitation is all the information our nervous system needs to begin to move into ease.”
Ben is knowledgeable and passionate about Anatomy, Physiology, Kinesiology, and trauma informed care. Having cultivated my communication skills, they are not only able to share that knowledge, but also the messages your body has to convey.
They are very calm, love to learn, and dedicated to facilitating comfort and ease in one's body.
Ben was trained in the art of bodywork at Finger Lakes School of Massage in Ithaca, NY and became a certified breathwork instructor with Breathe&Believe. A small sampling of the modalities Ben enjoys offering are: Visceral Manipulation (Organ-Specific Fascial Mobilization), Craniosacral Therapy & SomatoEmotional Release, Neural Reset Therapy, Myofascial Release (Connective Tissue Therapy), Kinesthetic Awareness Mobilization (movement-based Trager techniques & stretching).
After wandering about the states doing conservation work (especially in the Great Basin area of Nevada), Ben made their Northern Rockies my home in 2018.
Ben enjoys being in the forests, mountains, cold rivers & lakes to rejuvenate, drawing on the energy within nature to restore balance.
