J SHEFFIELD
About J
J believes in accessible, affirming, consent-based and trauma-informed care that supports BIPOC and queer and trans folks. J is currently offering virtual and pre-recorded sessions on somatic breathing and grounding, binding care, top surgery prep and recovery, scar tissue release, myofascial release, self and friend/partner massage, and stretching and strengthening.
Specializations
I offer space for somatic care as it relates to anxiety, depression and trauma. I also specialize in working with folks who bind their chests through promoting relief from pain, restricted movement, and trouble breathing, and I work to release restrictions that scars create post surgeries.
Client Testimonials
“I received incredible care from J. I sought out a virtual appointment after noticing changes from over three years of chest binding. J was so responsive and accessible before and after the appointment. During the session, their intake was detailed and affirming; and the remainder of the time was jam-packed with very helpful exercises, techniques, and other care. I was surprised how much information was contained in the session. They welcomed my partner joining too, which was a helpful part of my care. I can’t recommend highly enough!” – Client
“Truly affirming and wholesome care! J is genuinely enthusiastic about creating space for their clients to feel closer to peace with their bodies.” – Client

Accessibility
Currently all sessions are virtual or pre-recorded due to COVID-19. When I can offer in-person bodywork, I work at two locations with curb-side parking that are also accessible via public transportation. One location is accessible by ramp or stairs and one just by stairs. More info in the Logistics and FAQ on my site.
