Integrative Care for Musicians
Susan Mayer, LLC is proud to specialize in services to musicians. The National Library of Medicine states “that between 60 and 90 percent of professional musicians suffer from pain of the musculoskeletal system.” My passion is to help you get back to your passion with as minimal amount of pain as possible. We will also work together to build resilience to prevent future injuries from happening.
For over 30 years, my unique approach of utilizing a holistic system of care has brought relief to many musicians. I utilize general massage therapy, neuromuscular therapy (NMT), yoga, sound therapy, and aromatherapy as needed to support the physical, mind, and spirit.
