Meet Your Massage Therapist: Hayley

Get to know the team behind your Jalan Journey. We’re introducing members of the Jalan staff here on the blog so you can get to know us a little better!

Hometown: Cheyenne, WY

Specialty: Neuromuscular therapy. Resetting the muscles to function properly is one of the greatest accomplishments for me in this field. When clients get off my table with relief written all over their face it is a fantastic feeling!

Favorite spa service at Jalan and why: It’s hard to narrow down to just one, but if I had to absolutely pick, it would be the Hydrating Macadamia Body Scrub. It combines relaxation and massage, while getting soft glowing skin as a result.

Describe your massage style: I like to give a full body massage experience with longer flowing strokes to really stretch the muscles and relax the mind. I prefer a gentle approach to deep tissue by slowly sinking deep into the muscles rather than just using deep pressure to achieve the same goal. I’m a firm believer in helping individuals relax the second they get on my table and tailoring my service to the individual rather than a standard cookie cutter massage.

Why did you become a massage therapist? I became a massage therapist to help people with their pain points through massage and muscle balance as opposed to pain pills and surgery. I had a shoulder injury a few years back and the one thing that helped above all else was massage. So if I can help someone avoid a reliance on temporary relief through pain medicine by instead working out muscular issues in a way that provides lasting relief, I’ve done my job correctly.
