About Me

Julie Finer
Julie Finer
NY State Licensed Massage Therapist
Certified NeuroMuscular Therapist
Registered Yoga Instructor

In 2004 I began down the path of healing arts, with intentions of facilitating wellness with clients’ bodies and minds. Being a vested learner, integrating knowledge and techniques from several bodywork modalities, along with a devotion to listening to my client’s bodies and words, I work with my client’s to remove restriction and gain fluidity and balance…

 

A graduate of the Massage Therapist program of Onondaga School of Therapeutic Massage in Rochester, NY in 2004, a New York State license of Massage Therapy and a certification in NeuroMuscular Massage Therapy at the Center for NeuroMuscular Massage in Denver, CO have helped mold the basis of sessions with my clients. This enhanced with study of myofascial massage, craniosacral therapy, Shiatsu, Ashiatsu, therapeutic grade essential oil integration, Iyengar style yoga, Ayurveda and chakra study/balancing all combine to make sessions as unique as each client. I have taught treatment techniques to massage therapy students at both student and continuing education levels for LMTs in New York State. I offer personalized small group continuing education training for NeuroMuscular Massage techniques and Essential Oil use for massage therapists. Please contact me for more information.

 
As an avid yoga practitioner since I began practicing massage therapy I have seen the way yoga can transform a person from the inside out. Finding Iyengar yoga as a perfect antidote to the physical and mental stresses of modern living I took my essential yoga teacher training certification program and “Yoga for Back Pain” intensive at Open Sky Yoga with Francois Raoult in Rochester NY. I am a certified Relax and Renew Yoga teacher through the restorative yoga program of Judith Hanson Lasater, and a certified Yomassage™ practitioner. I have studied and teach breathing practice (pranayama), nervous system regulation for stress reduction and yin yoga.

I offer personalized yoga sessions and therapeutic plan creation and instruction with my clients, along with weekly group yoga classes and workshops.
