Dandelion Healing
Ashlen Hodge, LMT, MA60886665
I am a graduate of Seattle's Discoverypoint School of Massage, where I completed a rigorous 750+ hour program. I have training in Swedish massage, Deep tissue treatment massage, connective tissue massage (Myofascial), Neuromuscular (for Trigger Point and Tender Point release), and Lymphatic Facilitation for acute or chronic muscular-skeletal injuries.
I have continuing learning in trauma informed massage and have completed level 1 Sound Healing with the Seattle Sound Temple and I am a Level 2 Reiki Practitioner.
Currently, I am learning the Trager®Approach, which is a somatic movement re-education that uses easeful mindful movement to re-write tension patterns.

The body is amazing at persisting to an easeful balance
Why Dandelion Healing?
Because Dandelions always remind me that persisting and growing in life can be a joyful experience! Also, much of deep healing is letting go and returning to natural cycles.
I believe whole heartedly that long lasting treatment comes about with a relaxed and mindful state, which is why my sessions are slow and intentional, giving time for your body to change. What I love most about massage is finding “ah-ha!” moments with my clients and working with them in collaboration to make long lasting change. I build integrative sessions that dance between easy somatic movement, deep myofascial release, easeful repositioning and bolstering for your body to relax, trigger point specificity, and breath work. Falling asleep and getting those good stomach gurgles always makes me happy; the body is getting some deep rest and resetting!
Each massage session guarantees the full 30, 60 or 90 min table time, as well as includes ample time with me before and after the hands on portion to discuss an on-going health plan, and how to best support you in your striving for change.
