Eli
Brown, CMT, is a gifted massage therapist with nine years of
experience. Highly skilled at anatomically specific work, he has a
gentle and compassionate
touch. Eli regularly treats a wide range of clientele, from
dancers to physicians to web designers, representing a broad range of therapeutic
needs. His most frequent clients, however, are other body-workers; when massage
therapists need massage, Eli is the one they turn to.
With over six hundred hours of training in Deep Tissue,
Swedish, Trigger Point, Joint Mobilization, Myofascial Release and Sports Massage, Eli tailors
each session to the needs of the client, providing a unique session every time.
As skilled at “feel good” massage as he is at deep-tissue work, he has a
talent for achieving significant structural results while honoring the body
with relaxing touch.
A firm believer in the body’s natural wisdom, Eli greets the
tissues as he works, thanks them for their labor and invites them to relax into
their balanced, fluid state. Healing is a spontaneous, internal process which Eli
facilitates by providing support, feedback, and encouragement.
Experienced body-workers know that the myofascial tissues
store and process daily experiences. Consequently, overworked or traumatized
muscles often respond to touch in frightened ways. Through Eli’s nurturing
guidance, the client’s muscles relearn trust, release their shielding, and begin
to cooperate with the rest of the body.
Eli meets each client with an open heart. He believes that body
therapy is an demonstration of compassionate living, which has a ripple effect extending
well beyond the session. He sees clients in both the Rockridge area of Oakland as well as in Alameda.
