Meet Dessa

While working in private industry, Dessa became interested in the healing arts and began studying Reiki as a way to enhance her spiritual pursuits. Eventually, she became a licensed massage therapist in her home state of Ohio in 2003 to pursue more meaningful work. In 2013, she began expanding her knowledge of energy healing practices through the study of Jin Shin Jyutsu. After years of working with chiropractors to help people recover from injuries, she moved to Knoxville and became licensed here in Tennessee in 2020. Dessa has worked in many different environments and studied several different modalities over the years.
Dessa uses a gentle, integrated approach, utilizing all of the methods she has studied, to help her clients with chronic pain and to relax the body to address tension and anxiety. Her goal is to not only help reduce the immediate pain and discomfort, but over time improve the quality of the body's tissues to provide long term relief.
