Melanie Talbert, LMT

Melanie has over thirteen years of experience as a licensed massage therapist in Austin, Texas. She has had the pleasure of providing pain relief, increased joint mobility and flexibility, stress reduction and posture improvement to many individuals over the years. Her slow approach allows the body to receive and integrate the bodywork in order to release fascial adhesions and relieve dense regions of soft tissue allowing more space in the body for proper alignment. This minimizes stressful tension throughout the connective tissues. Additionally, she is a certified yoga instructor which lends to a deeper awareness of movement and structure. Her intuitive approach integrates years of hands-on experience with soft tissue, energetic and structural techniques which are applied with a detail oriented method. Specialties include deep tissue myofascial release, trigger point therapy, Thai yoga massage techniques and sports massage.
