Carlisle Douglas, CMT, offers massage therapy to address
injury recovery, chronic pain/illness management, stress
reduction, emotional healing and proactive health
maintenance. Whether the moment calls for smooth flowing
Swedish massage to more fully relax and let go of physical
and emotional holding, deep tissue massage to dissolve
specific areas of pain and tension, or myofascial stretching
to unwind the body's connective tissue, Carlisle is
conscious to be present, nurturing and responsive to
individual needs.
Carlisle is trained in a myriad of bodywork modalities
including deep tissue, myofascial release, proprioceptive
neuromuscular facilitation (PNF), positional release,
Shiatsu acupressure, and lymphatic drainage. She teaches an
11-day Therapeutic Massage Certification course as well as
Advanced Therapeutic Massage at the School of Shiatsu and Massage at Harbin Hot Springs.
Individual mentoring can
be arranged. She has based her private practice at Athing
Chiropractic and Massage since 1998. To contact Carlisle,

I have found Carlisle has an ability to be at once focused on short-term relief and also on long-term problem solving. It is deep, satisfying work that is also calming and wonderful. The last time she helped me when my body was in crisis, it was the most miraculous result I've seen from bodywork: an immediate and lasting reversal of chronic pain.

I have been to a lot of bodyworkers and the amazing thing about Carlisle is that she has a knowledge base and preciseness like a physical therapist and at the same time she works on such a spiritual level. When I leave I feel that my very soul has been touched.

With Carlisle, I never get the feeling that I'm receiving a pre-planned massage. She has the ability to find tense or knotted areas during the massage, and then focus on dispersing the tension. She is not married to one particular practice or routine, but seems to know just the technique to use for each area on which she is working. Carlisle's sensitivity and humanity combine with her professionalism and work ethic to provide a relaxing and therapeutic massage. |
