330 Townsend Street, Suite 232 San Francisco, CA

As Trigger-Point Release Specialists our objective is to release locked muscles in the most effective means possible. We work on clients with varying degrees of pain including muscular schlerosis, fibromyalgia, post-polio symptoms, carpal-tunnel, locked necks, frozen shoulders, neuromuscular reprogramming of the psoas, repetitive strain, athletes in training, and even regular bodies with chronic pain and aching muscles. Practitioners have a vast understanding of human anatomy and the mechanics of how one muscle can affect other muscles or entire regions of the body. In knowing this, we work the muscles responsible for the pain. "Yes! This is deep-tissue work, although in reality 'deep' work doesn't have to hurt people, fast work hurts peopl

JB Lawson

A massage that saved countless lives! I just had my first massage with Gina Abrescy, and whether or not she knows it, her incredible de-stressing of my mind and body probably saved countless lives in my office! Gina is a certified massage therapist - meaning she understands how the body works and how not to harm it in the process of healing (unlike a "spa masseuse" that just rubs the body without a clue about what works and why). Before laying a hand on me, Gina took the time to ask the right questions about both my physical health and state of mind, then adapted her skills to address my specific issues. I started my work day with a headache, feeling thick and sluggish, and generally run down despite healthy eating drinking lots of water...

Gina Abrescy is the most fabulous massage therapist! I am a physical therapist and Feldenkrais practitioner and love her Esalen trigger point style. She is able to instantly see from how you move what you need and then goes about it in a very caring, direct way. Her treatment space on Brannan is lovely and she is the warmest, funniest, most delightful person I have met in a long time. ~Holly B.

Gina is a consummate professional. Her knowledge of the muscle and skeletal structure and deep love of her work combine to make her an exceptional therapist. Having injured myself in the gym, I visited Gina in hopes that she would be to ease my back pain. In short order, she was able to target specific muscles to release pain and provide a wider range of motion. Believe me -- this is not your typical "feel good" massage. This is real, therapeutic body work: it may be slightly uncomfortable, but it works and that's all that really matters. ~CJ G.

Jackie Z

Gina is absolutely amazing! She blows every other massage therapist out of the water. This is not a fluffy, feel-good massage in a spa; it is a therapeutic treatment. Gina has incredible knowledge of the body. She can look at someone and determine where their pain is by their body position while just sitting or standing. She spends a lot of time finding out exactly what is going on in your body, what kind of pain it is, etc. so that she is able to provide the best treatment. She really knows her stuff! ~Jackie Z.
