News! I am now offering BodyMind Coaching!  I will tell you that this is a culmination of all that I have learned over the years! I don't tell you what you need to do, I help gently guide you into the space where you feel into what is needed for you. It is a deeper layer beyond the bodywork or in conjunction with it, where we work together to empower your life and upgrade your life. Reach out and schedule a Discovery call or session today!

I am also stepping into a new, larger space and building as of November 1st! I will be working together with my partner Natasha Hornedo/Inner Light Healing (
https://www.natashahornedo.com). out of our new office space at 2013-A West Anderson Lane. 

​My services have expanded and with that my rates will be rising as of November 1st. Now is a good time to get some gift certificates or pre-purchase some sessions before November. 

I will also be offering livestream qi gong classes through ZOOM in the coming months. 


I am grateful for all of you who have supported me over the years. It means a lot to me and my family.

With Gratitude,
Joshua



​BodyMind Coaching, Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT #103347), Certified Myoskeletal Alignment Therapist, Wu Dang External Qi Healer, Wu Dang Tai Ji Instructor, Yi Jing Consultant, Chi Nei Tsang Practitioner, Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT 200), 

I offer transformative healing services to help you live life fully. I am a gifted bodyworker well versed in the physical and energetic arts. I am a seasoned movement artist with a background in Qi Gong, Tai Ji, Capoeira, Yoga as well as a mix of other martial arts, dance and  shamanic practices. I am here to help you be alive in your self.

My Bodywork and Therapeutic Massage has evolved over the years. This might be Myofascial Release, Myoskeletal Alignment Technique, various forms of Active Therapy, Chi Nei Tsang (Chinese Visceral Qi Gong Massage), Zero Balancing, CranioSacral Therapy, External Qi Healing, a visualization technique.  I have recently added in BodyMind Coaching to help empower you to find the answers within yourself to lead you to an incredible fully embodied life.
It might be totally intuitive and something I have never done before. I am always learning and always trying to refine how I look at things and go about my work.  I have found I learn a lot from getting work. This is why I consistently get work from Osteopaths and Chriopractors, Rolfers, bodyworkers, energy workers and coaches.

Everyone comes In the door with a different story and a different body, different needs and unique concerns. I try to meet everyone where they are at. I have been lucky to have a diverse set of personal experiences and clients over the years to help me hone this skill. In my own life I ground myself with my personal practices and rituals. This includes Taoist movement and energy cultivation,  vigorous and not so vigorous Yoga Asana, Pranayama, ancestral communication, Sacred Medicine Ceremony and down to earth awareness. My work contains all these elements.

I have had extensive experience with chronic and acute pain issues such as:
​
low back pain
sciatic pain
neck pain
shoulder pain
knee pain
scoliosis
tendonitis
torn meniscus (with or without surgery)
ACL/MCL post surgery recovery
pre - surgery preparation (knee and hip replacements, spinal surgeries)
post surgerical recovery (laminectomies, spinal fusions, knee and hip replacements)
thoracic outlet syndrome 
nerve impingement issues
​golfer's/tennis elbow
pre and post workout/race preparation/recovery
post abdominal surgery recovery (c-section, hernia, hysterectomy)
ankle & wrist issues
migraines/headaches
TMJ syndrome
post natal recovery
general fatigue
​mystery pains


BodyMind Coaching
BodyMind Coaching is about empowering individuals to create healthy patterns in their daily lives. I draw from a wide background of techniques in empowering the individual get in touch with what they need to take their lives to the next level. 

CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a light touch therapy, based on Cranial Osteopathy, that can create dramatic improvements in your life. It is a gentle , hands on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the Craniosacral system, comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. Using a soft touch, generally no greater than 5 grams, or about the weight of a nickel, practitioners release restrictions in the Craniosacral system to improve the functioning of the central nervous system. By complementing the body's natural healing process, CST is increasingly used as a preventative health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction.


External Qi Healing (EQH) is an ancient Shamanic Taoist Healing art. It uses the Qi (bioelectric energy of the body and the universe) to free up energetic and physical blocks in the body. This often creates a felling of wellbeing, ease, clarity and focus while energizing the whole system. It is an ancient art that utilizes the abundant energy of the natural world to help ourselves heal. It draws upon the wisdom of Classical Chinese Medicine and Taoist practices. It also is great for people who are very sensitive to touch and who finds more traditional bodywork overwhelming or aggressive. This system has been passed down from Master Yun Xiang Tseng (Chen), 14th generation Zhang San Feng lineage, 25th generation Dragon Gate branch (Longmen sect) lineage, authorized to practice and teach the authentic Wu Dang Taoist teachings that have passed on in an unbroken living tradition for 700 years.

EQH can be beneficial for people who are feeling stuck in any areas of their lives, for those who suffer lingering pain or health issues that don't seem to go away with little to no help from Western Medicine or pharmaceutical treatments. I have found it in my practice  (in conjunction with psychotherapy or somatic therapy) to be very useful for people who have been through traumatic events such as a sudden loss of a loved one or depression. It resets the nervous system allowing the body to relax, and strengthens the immune system.

Chi Nei Tsang is an Asian form of bodywork that uses Taoist concepts of looking at the internal organs, their associated meridians and emotions. It addresses the internal organs of the body with a gentle form of manipulation that frees up the fascia, lymph and nerves around the internal organs. Key in the training of  Chi New Tsang is the use of Qi Gong (Qi: the Chinese concept of bioelectric energy, Gong: the continued, diligent practice of something in order to attain a high level of skill ) to energetically affect the balance of the organs. In Taoist Medicine (from Ancient Chinese culture) the organs can be affected by emotions, the surrounding environment and by diet among other things. Of course it is also very beneficial for those that have digestion issues, Crohn's Disease, IBS, those who have had abdominal surgeries, or women who have had children, whether Cesearean or Natural. It is very useful for breaking up adhesions in the abdominal fascia and for making space around the organs, which is especially beneficial after pregnancy.  It can be very helpful for anyone who is seeking balance and awareness in their body, mind and spirit
 
Tai Ji and Qi Gong teaches you how to build and harness your energy while re-establishing healthy movement patterns. It is an ancient system that develops coordination, balance, freedom of movement and focus. Joshua teaches the Wudang style of Tai Ji and Qi Gong as taught to him by Master Yun Xiang Tseng (Chen). It is excellent for people who are looking for balance and ease in their life, no matter what age or level of health. It is a great compliment to athletes to train with more ease and flow. It greatly improves any other physical activity while giving your mind space to enjoy the experience. It is a practice that know no boundaries and limit of depth.

Hatha Yoga and Pranayama can help free up the physical body to make space in the body and build your strength, balance and equilibrium. It is an ancient tool that helps cultivate the coordination of breath and movement, and for finding the balance between strength and flexibility. It opens and builds the prana (energy)  in the body by creating tapas (or heat) to allow for ease of movement, access and greater control of your body and life. 

Pranayama is the science of using breath and focus to help us open up our energy centers (cakras), gain mastery over our nervous system, strengthen our immune system and improve overall health.

Yi Jing (or I Ching) is known as The Book Of Changes. It is one of the oldest known written manuscripts in the world. It is based on an ancient system of divination that gives you insight and direction into  to the many choices we have to make on  a daily basis. It also gives you self knowledge into the strength and weaknesses of your personality, your unique gifts and a path to find balance. It gives you insight into the timing and patterns of the universe and how they relate to you and your life. Joshua is a 26th Generation Long Men Yi Jing consultant trained under Master Yun Xian Tseng.

Covid -19 Update. As of May 18th,  Governor Abbot has legally released Massage Therapists to work. I also understand that not everyone is so keen to get back to "normal" and are concerned about safety, among other things.  There are a lot of feelings around the Pandemic and a lot of us have been through quite a shift in the last few months. On my end my Partner and I have no childcare for the moment. So, I am slowly opening up my schedule as we figure out things moving ahead. It is easier to reach out to me directly to schedule right now (text, email or phone) instead of scheduling online since there are a lot of moving parts on my end.

I am also offering live and livestream yoga classes through Yoga East Austin (www.yogaeastaustin.com). You can check their website to get an up to date schedule. I will continue to update the situation as it evolves. I hope everyone is staying as safe and healthy as possible.



I am grateful for all of you who have supported me over the years. It means a lot to me and my family.

With Gratitude,
Joshua

Joshua offers transformative healing services to help you live life fully. He is a gifted bodyworker well versed in the physical and energetic arts. He is a seasoned movement artist with a background in Qi Gong, Tai Ji, Capoeira, Yoga as well as a mix of other martial arts, dance and  shamanic practices. He is passionate about helping you be present in your body and offering guidance on how to maintain your health and balance.

His Bodywork and Therapeutic Massage addresses the fascia, muscles and connective tissue to help you find structural balance. He primarily uses Myofascial Release, Myoskeletal Alignment Technique, various forms of Active Therapy, Chi Nei Tsang (Chinese Visceral Qi Gong Massage), Zero Balancing, CranioSacral Therapy and a wide variety of influences he has picked up over the years. He is heavily influenced by Thomas Myers and his Anatomy Trains for a structural, more western view, but is heavily influenced by Traditional Chinese Medicine's model of the Five Elements, Yin and Yang and the system of meridians on the energetic, more Eastern side of things. By bringing the structure of the body back into balance, we allow ourselves the support and ease that we need to create healthy movement. By engaging and addressing how we approach the more subtle ways in which we use our energy, we create peace of mind, balance and harmony.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"I've been seeing Joshua for a couple of years now. He provides a safe container, and a surprisingly broad frame of reference. He says just what I need to hear and responds to the changes in my physical experience with uncanny skill. His calm presence and devotion to his practice are complemented by the way (beyond my comprehension) he is able to "read" energy with his hands. My levels of pain and anxiety are reduced considerably and often entirely in these sessions." Pamela L
