Do the sports you love without the pain that slows you down
Hello
I’m Danielle Hankinson and the founder of Mountain Myofascial Release.
I spent years of my life chasing winter and traveling the world teaching skiing. My days consisted of skiing, gym sessions, and parties.
My body did everything I wanted it to and more, until I got in an accident that changed everything. I was hit by another skier, injuring my neck and shoulder and beginning years of chronic pain.
Over the years, I have tried many different modalities for relief including, acupuncture, physical therapy, biofeedback, chiropractic, reiki, and traditional massage. All of these methods helped a little bit to take the edge of pain, but never brought me lasting relief.
It was not until I was in massage school that I discovered the John Barnes Myofascial Technique. I booked a few sessions with a John Barnes trained Myofascial Therapist out of curiosity, and discovered the one thing in years that has given me meaningful, lasting pain relief.
Myofascial Release has brought me the most relief in the shortest amount of time; I am able to move better, have far less pain, and recover quicker than I have in years. Most importantly, I can do the sports I love without pain holding me back.
I know first-hand how difficult it can be to love sports and not be able to do them in the way you want to – because let’s be real, we would all rather push through the pain than not do what we love – and I know how difficult it can be to find things that help your pain.
I use my skills to help female athletes get back to what they love at full force, without making modifications or sacrifices because of pain. I am committed to helping women reach their athletic goals, whether that is recovering from a recent injury, working through chronic pain, or improving performance and recovery.
I look forward to helping you discover the amazing healing power of myofascial release too.
