Applied Pressure

I’m a massage therapist myself, and to be honest, I’m very picky and particular about the work I receive. It takes a lot for me to truly relax on the table—I need to feel confident that the therapist really knows what they’re doing. I came to Applied Pressure because I was dealing with an issue in my right shoulder that was causing nerve pain and making it difficult to work. I had heard they were treatment-oriented and focused on effective, results-driven sessions, so I decided to give them a try. My session with Jess not only gave me the relief I was looking for, but it went far beyond that. The way she worked felt incredibly specific, intentional, and deeply attuned. It honestly felt like something in my shoulder and neck was being met in a way I didn’t even realize it needed. I experienced such a level of release that it even brought up an emotional response, which is rare for me with bodywork. Her technique and focus are truly exceptional. If you’re looking for more than just a relaxing spa massage—if you want real, skilled, therapeutic bodywork—go to Applied Pressure. The practice Dena is building reflects what massage therapy is truly meant to be.

This is the most transformative bodywork I have ever received! Dena is like an acrobatic, osteopathic massage therapist and intuitive body worker all wrapped in one! ✨ I am able to walk with significantly less pain in my bone-on-bone ankle, and SHE DIDN’T EVEN TOUCH MY FEET. After just one session, I can stand, sit, drive, speak, and concentrate with so much more ease. I can wear heels again, and my sleep and posture have improved immensely! My dexterity has sharpened and my nervous system feels remarkably calmer. Hands-down, the best bodywork I’ve ever had. • Not only is she a gifted practitioner, she is intentional, informative, highly educated, and kind. Her place is beautiful and calming. Great location, easy parking. • SO HAPPY TO HAVE FOUND APPLIED PRESSURE! Thank you, Dena! 🙏🏾✨

Had a session with Amanda, truly the best experience. It’s so much more than a massage, it’s a hospital for bent and broken people. Thank you!

Jess was amazing. Can’t wait to go back. Definitely a healer.

I was shocked at how well this worked. My hips have been crooked for years and I’m in physical therapy. My PT has given me exercises which address the root causes of the problem, but I wanted body work, so I thought I would give this a shot. I had Patty Z and she worked on me for 90 minutes and afterwards, my hips were straight. I almost started crying! I was skeptical because there were so many good reviews. I thought it couldn’t be true, but it is. All of the other massages in my life were nothing compared to this. I think that for what they do, it is a fair price. It’s not something I could afford regularly, but for me my crooked hip problem was so important that it was worth a shot and I don’t regret it.
