Hi, my name is Jaye Wingstrom. I specialize in soothing, yet practical, results-oriented massage therapy, bodywork, and posture alignment therapy in the Egoscue Method that use an anatomy-centered approach to pain relief: If your goal is stress reduction, a relaxing massage is always available. But I know what it takes to achieve that balance between working out the knots and getting into the ‘zone.' I know how irritating it can be to endure a massage therapy session that seems too basic and downright "cookie-cutter". I am confident about my skill level in determining what will best benefit each client, as I am a firm believer in the idea that "Every body is unique", and naturally my aim is to tailor your treatment to reflect that. Whether you are seeking a great therapeutic massage, or are interested in innovative Posture Alignment Therapy, I am sure you'll get the relief you are searching for.
Background:
I have provided many massage therapy clients with excellent, effective, safe, and intuitive sessions since 2006. Before discovering the extraordinary world of bodywork, I taught Physical Education and Health at the elementary and middle school levels, and I have always maintained an uncompromising passion for learning about more holistic and alternative ways to keep the human body healthy.
I believe in a multi-faceted approach to client discomfort, pain, and posture concerns. This allows me to work individually with each client in identifying the root causes of pain or other symptoms he or she may be experiencing. During my tenure at a leading medical fitness facility in Chicago, I have assisted many clients through massage-including obsessed distance runners, athletes training for triathlons, seniors, high school athletes, overworked desk job employees, weekend warriors, and patients suffering from medical issues such as nerve disorders, orthopedic challenges, circulatory problems, chronic pain, stroke survivors, and those undergoing physical therapy.
In my massage therapy sessions, I skillfully apply a wide variety of therapeutic massage techniques for removing soft tissue adhesions, reducing aches and pains, improving at hletic performance, and promoting stress relief through general relaxation.
For clients seeking to maintain an essential level of total body wellness, I also design custom posture alignment therapy correction programs consisting of an exercise and stretching routines intended to identify and address each individual’s visible compensations and structural deviations in order to restore balance and correct alignment as it relates to aches, pains, and limitations. The ultimate goal is to restore the body’s full range of motion, prevent injuries, enhance body awareness, prevent pain, and improve performance.
Memberships
I am a nationally certified (NCBTMB) and licensed massage therapist in the State of Illinois. I studied my craft at the COMTA-accredited Cortiva Institute-Chicago School of Massage Therapy using the outstanding clinical massage curriculum developed by industry pioneer Bob King. I am insured and registered member in good standing with the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA), Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals (ABMP), and Thai Healing Alliance International (THAI).
Education
I hold a B.A. from the University of Wisconsin, a B.S. in Kinesiology and K-12 teacher certification in Physical Education and Health from Elmhurst College, and personal trainer and weight training certifications through the Aerobics and Fitness Association of America (AFAA). I have additionally completed the PAS-II training in posture alignment therapy through The Egoscue Method ®, and I received a diploma from the Chicago School of Thai Massage's six-month program.
Personal
When I am not trying to heal the people of Chicago from pain and the stresses of daily living, I enjoy reading books, blogging, catching up on the latest news in wellness, playing with my two over-indulged cats, taking a continuing education class, attending a convention, learning a new skill, traveling to faraway places, camping out in the middle of nowhere, meeting new people, trying something new, and maintaining peoples' awareness of how massage therapy is a legitimate, effective, and professional modality through education.
