Get out of pain and back to living your life.

Gentle Myofascial Release therapy in Northwest Tucson for chronic pain, prenatal and postpartum support, and pelvic health.

Gentle support for lasting change.

Myofascial Release (MFR) is a gentle, hands-on therapy that can help transform long-standing patterns of tension, pain, and dysfunction.

Rather than pushing past where your body is ready to go, this work meets you where you are and supports the release of fascial restrictions that may be keeping you stuck in pain or limiting how you move and feel.

The goal is to help you feel better in your body and get back to doing the things you love.

Upcoming Workshop for Women!

“Embodied Vision”

This workshop is an opportunity to rest in the deep wisdom of your body and allow yourself to know and see what's true. The head is an access point for intuition, inner knowing, and clarity of vision. We'll use embodiment practices, myofascial release self-treatment, movement, breath, and sound to access the soft knowing and clear sight held in your head, brain, eyes, and skull. This exploration will support your feminine body in relaxing into intuitive knowing and vision.

October 4th 2-4pm in NW Tucson

Nice to meet you!

I’m Siri Garfinkel, OTR/L.

I’m a trained John F. Barnes Myofascial Release® therapist and Occupational Therapist with a passion for helping people heal from pain and reclaim their health and vitality.

My own experience with hip pain, pregnancy, birth injury, pelvic floor dysfunction, and postpartum recovery led me to Myofascial Release after traditional approaches had not fully helped.

The changes I experienced inspired me to train in this work so I could help others find a gentle, empowering way to feel better in their bodies.
