Alexis McPherson LMT - Bodywork
Based in Flower Mound Texas, Alexis is the massage therapist that I recommend to EVERYONE! They have been immensely helpful in working with all of my health issues, are extremely knowledgeable.
I am in awe of my experiences with Alexis. I have been to many massage therapists in a search for help with my concerns and pain, and she is the first to make a real, lasting, and significant impact.
They are immensely informative without being intrusive to the massage experience. I learned so much in such a short time with her! Her passion for her work is apparent in everything she does, she is incredibly knowledgeable, and deeply cares for her clients - which is vital in this line of work, but hard to find!
I didn't know going into my appointment that myofascial release is exactly what I needed. I didn't know that my old ankle sprain that "just wouldn't heal" had progress into a bunch of muscle strains running up my leg. My over-compensating & leg tension for the sprain had gotten so bad, it had developed into strains on my other leg! I had been unable to walk without pain for 7 months. After my session with Alexis, I have walked for pain free! And I am doing self-massage at home, shadowing some of the areas and techniques Alexis focused on. I'll be coming back again and again because she seriously knows her practice and is so kind.
Alexis was also very accommodating and respectful of my health state and sensory & social needs - without me even having to advocate for them! It's just a base part of how they work! I have sexual trauma, so it's often difficult for me to have massage done, but I didn't feel any fear with Alexis. She was very communicative about when and where she would touch me and where she was. Amazing change of pace for me.
Her space and music also offer a very beautiful, spiritual experience. I particularly enjoyed the binaural speakers, music implementation, and aromatherapy.
Everything about Alexis' practice centers holistic healing, empowerment of the client, and prioritizes consent and autonomy.
