J E S S  K I N G | Licensed Massage Therapist, LMT

I am a licensed massage therapist, reiki practitioner and clinical mental health grad student. A native Mainer, I spent a decade exploring California, where I attended the International Professional School of Bodywork (IPSB) in San Diego and studied massage therapy. I was instructed by trauma informed bodywork professionals, with a holistic approach to the body. 

I work with a variety of clients with a assortment of goals, including: stress reduction, reduce chronic muscle tension, increased joint mobility, mange low-back pain, TMJ relief, relive tension headache, decrease migraines frequency, better sleep, enhance exercise performance, fertility challenges, postpartum support and self-care practices.

A lifelong knowledge seeker, in 2021, I completed my undergraduate degree from the University of Southern Maine in Social and Behavioral Sciences. Currently, I am pursuing a masters in clinical mental health. The natural world and meditation is how I find balance and recharge mentally and physically.
