As a former sufferer of low back pain from disc injury, Ferrin has great empathy for clients going through chronic pain and focuses on the most expedient, least painful path of relief, using Trigger Point Therapy, myofacial release and gentle positional release. Ferrin brings a fresh awareness to traditions of holistic healing. Her work is inspired by Hawaiian Lomi Lomi, Mayan Light Language Curandera teachings, Traditional Chinese Medicine acupoints and healing with intuitive play. She uses her knowledge of Medical and Orthopedic Massage, Chi Nei Tsang, Trigger Point Therapy, Neuromuscular Therapy, Lymphatic Drainage and many other modalities to accelerate her goal of successful and long lasting pain relief |
What I Believe |
I believe pain does not have to be a permanent state, though it may feel like it while you are in the throes of it. I believe the way out of pain is multi-faceted and different for every person. It is your Massage Therapist's job to help you find your best route for pain resolution and support you in creating space for the authentic long lasting kind of healing which is your birthright.

Honoring My Teachers |
Living in Hawaii and going to massage school there were both the learning opportunities of a lifetime. I want to honor my teachers for their wisdom, care, and love. Thanks to all of them, with special thanks to Kapono Sousa, my Lomi-Lomi teacher, Arturo Arroyo, my Chi Nei Tsang teacher, my Acupressure (and therein Traditional Chinese Medicine) teacher Josh Jensen, a Master of Acupuncture from World Medicine Institute
