Carolyn Clark

Carolyn’s journey with chronic pain shaped the therapist she is today. Discovering Myofascial Release while in massage school changed the way she understood her body, not as something to fix, but as something to listen to. That experience gave her a deep respect for the connection between mind and body and continues to guide the way she works with clients. Carolyn approaches each session with a peaceful, intuitive presence, meeting each person where they are and helping them understand how pain, stress, and emotions can show up physically in the body. Through gentle, personalized Myofascial Release work, she supports clients in feeling more connected, more aware, and more at home in themselves.

Carolyn Clark is a Licensed Massage Therapist devoted to the practice of John Barnes Myofascial Release. Her work is rooted in patience, presence, and deep respect for the body’s inherent wisdom.

Carolyn was drawn to massage therapy through her own experience with chronic pain. While in massage school, she was introduced to Myofascial Release and immediately recognized it as the missing piece in her own healing. Receiving this work changed the way she understood her body — not as something to fix, but as something to listen to.

Having experienced the healing impact of Myofascial Release in her own life, Carolyn understands how meaningful it is to feel truly supported in the healing process. She believes healing is not forced, but invited, and that when we feel safe enough to soften, the body remembers its way home.

Through her practice, she guides clients in reconnecting with their bodies, helping them uncover patterns held in restriction and gently supporting lasting change. Her intention is to hold a grounded, supportive space where clients can slow down, feel deeply, and rediscover their own ability to heal.

Kind words

“My time with Carolyn has significantly improved my overall health. The MFR work Carolyn does has connected my brain and body in ways I didn’t know were possible. Carolyn is the most intuitive and insightful body work practitioner I have ever worked with. I was experiencing pain, loss of strength and a feeling of being overall unwell when I started working with Carolyn.

Carolyn has a peaceful and intelligent approach to each appointment and I always leave feeling so much better both in mind and body. No two appointments are the same, as Carolyn meets me where I am each time. Though my work with Carolyn, I now understand my body - how emotions show up physically, how everything is connected, and how to know my limits. Physically, I have regained my grip strength in my left hand that had been an issue for two long years. My sleep has improved greatly. When I started with Carolyn, I had been experiencing a constant slight headache on one side of my head and face for months. Carolyn was able to address it and the relief is palpable. The body work is so unique, gentle, personalized and life changing. I tell everyone I know to try MFR with Fern Cottage Wellness, as it has improved my overall physical and mental health.”
