About

33 years of experience and advanced training from light energy work to deep tissue and stretching. I am aware and awed by the body dynamic and it’s ability to heal from within! My mission is to increase awareness and facilitate flexibility!

The mechanics, simplistic yet intelligent design of how our bodies work fascinates me. It is exciting to discover what unlocks the stuckness that causes painful movement! Continuing education keeps improving awareness and effective improvements!

    Tana is a humble, sensitive, beautiful woman! She is kind, authentic and extremely knowledgeable and professional. She has had excellent training and she absolutely has the most intuitive hands and a born gift for massage therapy. She senses your areas of stuckness and works diligently to give you relief and comfort. I recommend her highly!! I moved away from Texas and have never found someone as great as Tana. I miss her healing nature and genuine caring! 💝

    I first received a chair massage from Tana Johnston at a local shop & called her for a home visit full massage soon after. She is a fantastic practitioner & works to facilitate specific concerns & is well versed in multiple modalities of healing. Tana is kind & considerate of sensitivities & is an honorable business woman. I highly recommend Tana.

    Frequently asked questions

    After the initial interview , muscle testing and range of motion evaluation, I use appropriate techniques to facilitate greater flexibility starting with light palpating and moving into deeper techniques as the body allows.

    33 years of continuing education,35 to 150 hours annually! From light techniques like Craniotomy-Sacral and Reiki to deep tissue like Body electronics and Stretching. Hot Stone and some Thai massage. SMRT-Spontaneous Muscle Release technique !

    $100/ hour for house calls, $50 plus $1/ minute for individuals in corporate chair massage!

    Seeking relief from my own aches and pain,I took an introductory general massage class! Everyone in the class exclaimed their pleasure at my touch by the end of the day, even the instructor was saying I had a “gift”! As I left , I thought “if I am this good with the little I know, imagine what I could do if I knew more?” The training and teachers just synchronistically appeared ever since!

    Every day people, rich to poor, in pain, mental , emotional, physical. Cerebral palsy, ALS, elderly, pregnant, children. I have worked Renaissance fairs, marathons, corporate offices, retirement homes and hospice, MS150 and Special Olympics!

    I took a SMRT class in Austin in January and enjoyed it! The real “miracles” appeared between classes! Opportunities for a new residence for my mom and myself and job opportunities and many other synchronicities led me to move to Austin from Houston! New lifestyle, new friends and family connections, new adventures and experiences!!  

    Get referrals! Ask questions!  Interview any potential therapists to avoid unpleasant experiences!

    Most people do not have extensive understanding of this body we inhabit, we go through our daily routines on autopilot! You do not have to have a doctors knowledge! Most explanations in layman’s terms,though, will give you a greater awareness of the cause of pain and make sense when viewed in the big picture of our daily routines! Simple awareness and changes in habits can eliminate the emotional stress we store in our muscles!  Breathe Deeply! Drink plenty water! Simple fixes can be made automatically!
