My Technique
You may be surprised that the spot where you’re feeling pain is not the actual cause of your pain, so our work together is to figure this out.
You can expect homework to move yourself out of pain and then into more strength and suppleness.
My Approach
I believe that healing from pain and moving into great health requires a strong team effort. My job is ultimately to teach you how to feel and connect to your own body so you can be pain free and live better.
The JLM Difference
I work with people who have pain rather than working on the pain that someone feels.
What to Expect
I do not claim to fix you. You are at the helm of your own health and wellbeing. I expect you to show up, be willing to participate, and seriously want to get better.
I also work with a holistic and whole-istic approach, looking at the whole body and identifying the support it needs in this moment to reduce the pain you’re feeling. I’m not interested in people coming to me to fix them so they can continue to do what it is that puts them in pain in the first place.
About Joshua McGirk
I believe that healing from pain and moving into great health requires a strong team effort. Clients come to me with tons of different types of physical pain that prevent them from enjoying life. I bring many different skill sets to the table. Then we decide together in each session what fits best for quick results at that moment.
We will check in at the beginning of every session, noticing how and what you are feeling in your body.
Based on that conversation, we move on to either massage techniques or yoga therapy techniques, or even both.
I use massage techniques to help you feel where your body is holding tightness. I use yoga therapy techniques to also help you feel where your body is holding tightness.
Then I can teach you how to reduce the tightness your body feels through simple yoga poses, gentle movements, meditation, mantra, breathing, self massage and restorative practices.
I also teach workshops in order to give you more information than we can fit in one session. These sessions, workshops and classes are really designed to teach you to be your own self-care advocate. We take time in each session to identify where your pain is actually coming from and then our work really begins. You may be surprised that the spot where you're feeling pain is not the actual cause of your pain, so our work together is to figure this out. My job is ultimately to teach you how to feel and connect to your own body so you can be pain free and live better.
What My Clients Say about Me
"From the Anatomy Intensive in Salt Lake City - Not only did I learn a tremendous amount about the human body, I learned a tremendous amount about the way I live my life. I had such a fun time learning anatomy. I already knew I loved this subject but Josh made this subject fun and accessible. I feel personally connected to Josh. If that wasn’t his intention, it was a lovely side effect! I feel like I may have found a new opening into another way of seeing my life and my role in it. Thank you so much!"
