Fran has been servicing families of Brooklyn and the surrounding boughs for over 5 years with quality therapeutic massage. Her touch is therapeutic by all accounts. Her specialty is orthopedic massage which is different from Swedish technique that are more commonly known. While the Swedish style is noted for it's long gliding strokes and kneading of muscle tissue; orthopedic massage serves to help treat deep muscular dysfunctions such as whip lash, carpal tunnel syndrome, lower back strain, neck and shoulder pain, sciatic pain. It also serves to bring relief to those suffering from arthritis, symptoms that stems from Muscular Dystrophy, anxiety, and  insomnia.

Fran is a true believer of client self care. She takes time to interview the client before and after sessions to help the individual better understand how many mechanical dysfunctions can be minimized. Each person receives individualized attention to bring about results.

The Ministry Of Touch

What can say STRESSED to the max than a college student. Not to mention those obtaining their PhD and Doctoral degrees. I had the pleasure of performing chair massage on the students of Union Theological Seminary of Columbia University this past week. What an amazing group. As a former student herself of Union, current Dean of Student Life Yvette D. Wilson knows first hand how the final days of the school term can wear a person down.

The students where offered 10 minute massages as part of a two day event hosted by the the school. I always say 10 minutes of massage can change your LIFE! 

Here is what some students had to say:

"Yvette,

I had one of the chair massages today and wanted to let you know it was
exceptional.  Fran Dunston was really great.  I am so impressed by what she
could accomplish in 10 minutes.  Thank you so much--just what I needed to take
on this week." - Colleen M.

"Yvette,

A thank you from a student who got a ten minute massage today. Wonderful! What a gift! I was ministered to and I greatly appreciate it" - Lizzie D. PhD student
