Vision Statement

Mueller Orthopedic and Medical Massage provides injury rehabilitation and prevention for all ages, genders and budgets. Located in the Kingfield neighborhood of South Minneapolis, my clients are actively involved in their lifestyle choices. I have over 40 years of experience in the wellness field. As a therapeutic bodywork provider, I offer a wide range of modalities from injury rehabilitation and prevention services,  prenatal, postpartum, and in hospital massage sessions, craniosacral therapy, palliative care, structural integration through Pilates reformer and mat work, and personal training . My service is exceptional because it is thorough and effective in addressing specific issues which in turn influence the integrity of all the body's systems. I recruit the body's innate wisdom to return damaged tissues to  their intrinsic state of balance. My primary goal for each treatment session is to facilitate structural change which in turn relieves of eliminates painful symptoms. I achieve this goal by integrating a broad spectrum of modalities as appropriate to the medical concerns of my clients.

Package rates

Much of wellness is about having realistic expectations of ourselves. In the next few weeks there will be a heartfelt effort from many of us to be healthier: start an exercise program or make different food choices. It is important to stay with reasonable expectations and plan for the times that we fall short of our own personal goals. For some of us bodywork and massage can be a carrot at the end of a series of workouts. Perhaps weekly, but more often monthly sessions work best for us. I have clients who pay for a year of massage sessions after they receive their tax return. Buying a package of 12 or 6 sessions maximizes your investment and provides an incentive for the challenges that appear unexpectedly in our lives. Currently, I offer 2 or 3 sixty minute sessions at $75/session and 4 or more at $70/session at my Kingfield location.  These packages can be shared or gifted as desired. Text 612 205-4453 to purchase your package.
