My name is Jo Gentry. I am a member of San Francisco Massage Therapy because masssage is my way of making a difference on the planet. Helping to relieve stress and pain in another human being is a powerful and rewarding experience.
I have been a Massage Therapist for 20 years. Each massage I give is a unique journey. I believe in listening to the client's body with my hands and creating trust on a somatic level. I do not believe in painful or "forced" massage.
I specialize in Lymphmed Lymphatic Drainage. See video
I combine it in a session with skin brushing. Combined, this is a powerful detoxifying treatment for the lymphatic system of the body. I believe a sluggish lymphatic system leads to cellulite and many other problems.
I specialize in Copper Massage. Copper has been an essential material to man since pre-historic times. For centuries, people have believed that copper can help enhance circulation reduce swelling, relieve stiffness and ease pain. See video
legendary healing qualities of copper:
*Relief from arthritic conditions and rheumatism
*Relief of muscular aches, pains sprains,
* Rebuilding of skin tissue and bone mass

At minimum, massaging with warmed copper stones and tools is a deeply effective treatment for relieving tension and stress. Using copper as a massage tool may be an additional benefits for relieving pain.
Warm Rolling Stone Massage
This is a unique Warm Stone massage using stone spheres that deeply relax the body and tense muscles, Heated stones help muscles release stress and acids more quickly than in traditional massage. The heated spheres radiate their warmth deep into your muscles and tissues. The rolling action of the spheres create a deeply relaxing path of warmth along the muscles and meridians. See video.
