 Linda Watkins has been a licensed massage therapist in Salt Lake City, UT for ten years. During that time she has created a vibrant practice in which she works exclusively with people who have discomfort, pain and immobility projects that they want to solve. Many of her clients come because of pain resulting from injury, overuse, misuse, stress, the aging process, to name just a few of the culprits that plague us in everyday life. Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue respond well to the techniques Linda uses to relieve pain and immobility and exhaustion.  Pain and inability to use one’s body easily in the everyday activities that each person chooses for their life, makes life less than a joy to live. Linda’s goal is to assist people in overcoming that which is causing them pain and restriction in their bodies so they can get on with doing what they would like to do with their lives. It doesn’t matter if that is just being able to go through the day without pain or if it means running another marathon, taking a hike or playing with the kids. It doesn’t matter if it means getting back to something you have always loved doing but can’t because of restrictions and pain or if it means taking up a new activity. Age is not the limiting factor. Lack of movement is.
Linda has spent the last ten years expanding her knowledge and understanding of the causes of pain, discomfort and restriction and how to help relieve them. She has spent many hours in seminars in the study of Deep Tissue and Structural Integration issues, Craniosacral work (cranial), Jin Shin Jyutsu, and Biodynamic Work. Linda works with her clients using the modality which seems most appropriate for their need in the moment. Every session is tailored to meet the needs of the client in that moment. There is no such thing as a typical session that fits everyone. Her clients also sometimes request specific work because of results attained in the past or because of their affinity for a particular modality or way of having her work. It is all part of the tailoring required for the needs of each client. Particular attention is paid to work at the level of comfort needed by each client. Feedback from the client is solicited so the session is at the right depth. Deep Tissue & Structural Integration, unfortunately have a reputation for being painful. Another part of the tailoring in Linda’s work is to work at a level or depth that works for the client.
 In this website there is a lot of space given to Jin Shin Jyutsu not because it is more important or better than the other modalities but because one of the most delightful features of Jin Shin Jyutsu is Self-Help. Linda features many self-help treatments you can take directly from this website & use for yourself, your friends and family members.
