Vicky suffers from the pain and weariness of fibromyalgia. Don survived being hit by a truck while riding his bicycle, but was left with broken bones and contusions that contribute to his chronic discomfort. Louise’s sixth-nerve palsy gives her double vision. Although each person’s condition is dramatically different, all three have found relief at the hands of Elizabeth Slone, whose massages don’t just soothe tension and ease sore muscles—they also help her patients manage their pain and heal.
Having honed her techniques at Lexington Healing Arts Academy, Slone has been practicing massage therapy since 2001, going hand-to-hand against troublesome aches using trigger-point and neuromuscular modalities. Her gifted mitten fillers are also well versed in orthopedic and adhesion release massage techniques, which can help break up the fibrous connective tissue that forms after injury, surgery, or ingestion of an entire throw rug. She serenades olfactory senses with aromatherapy scents during kneading sessions and can augment massages with reflexology.
