Nabla Bodywork

Looking for goal-oriented bodywork without feeling like a car in the repair shop? My practice might be a good fit for you. I use broad, slow pressure to “melt” tissue in directions that it doesn't normally move in daily life. This approach works well for a variety of goals, from mobilizing stiff shoulders to calming an overstimulated nervous system. 

 

Massage therapy doesn't have to be a "no pain, no gain" experience. Through my myofascial and movement-based work, clients typically report a sustained sense of ease in moving and less tension for several days after a session. In each session, I aim to offer clients a little inspiration in the possibilities of what their body can feel like.

 About Rendon

Hey, I'm Rendon. I like understanding how things work, and that's one reason why I find anatomy fascinating. What I love about bodywork, though, is how all of the pieces come together in unique ways, making each of us so much more than a collection of parts.

 

Outside of my massage office, I can usually be found with my spouse and two stepkids, plus our menagerie of animals. Some of you might also know me as half of Myoflorae. Our anatomical artwork can be found all over the Triangle in many forms. I also love music, and you'll see me in the occasional band t-shirt around the office.

So Why Nabla?

Once upon a time, I was a big math nerd. The similar delta 𝚫 symbolizes change – an amount, a quantity. The nabla, on the other hand, can be used to create a map of change happening across a surface – a shoulder, for example.

 

This represents how I work, noticing where tissue moves easily and where there may be resistance, then finding flows through those areas. More importantly, it reflects the idea that there are always multiple paths, never one static truth of how to work with bodies, each with its own needs, preferences, and quirks.
