Jolene’s love of problem solving, taking a full-body approach to injuries, and helping people become the best they can be led her to grasp onto the holistic nature and amazing results of the Counterstrain method. She loves to educate people so that they truly understand what is happening in their body to produce their symptoms and thereby be an active participant in complete recovery. Her motto is “total body balance” where all the systems of the body can function as they were originally designed to do – becoming a resilient, self-sufficient, self-healing machine!

Jessica Farrell PT, DPT, OCS graduated from the University of Washington Doctor of Physical Therapy program in 2009. She was drawn to the physical therapy profession as an opportunity to help people get back on their feet after illness or injury through holistic methods. She was fortunate to be introduced to Counterstrain during her internships while still in school and then to work with others practicing this technique when she started working as a PT. Some of her first continuing education classes were studying Counterstrain with the Jones Institute. Once Jessica experienced the astounding potential of the technique, she decided to set herself on a path to develop a high-level of proficiency. She is grateful that Fascial Counterstrain allows her to help people who have not found success in other treatment options and to approach even very complex patients with confidence. Jessica is an Orthopedic Clinical Specialist and has worked in women’s health for over ten years. When not at work Jessica enjoys outdoor adventures such as mountain biking, rafting and kayaking as well as spending time with her family.
Hi Anne here,
I originally started Strain Counterstrain in 2011 as a Licensed Physical Therapist Assistant. I continued studying with The Jone Institute venturing into Fascial Counterstrain. I opened my own business, Kaspar Health and Wellness LLC on October 31, 2018 as a Licensed Massage Therapist in Waverly Iowa.
I have passion for Fascial Counterstrain. I enjoy working with clients to have them feel better using these great techniques.
I continue my education through The Jones Institute and the Counterstrain Academy and Conventions.
I would love to work with you.
“I always knew I wanted to be in a helping profession so I could make a real difference in the lives of others. Physical therapy has been the perfect field for me, and I’ve grown to appreciate it more and more over the past 30+ years. I love being able to see the physical and emotional transformation that happens with healing when you’re feeling better and able to function again. It changes your whole outlook on life. Few things in life are more rewarding than seeing my patients experience that transformation and newfound freedom.”
A more personal, involved approach
“I am fortunate to have an incredible team who enjoys their work transforming lives. They share my philosophy of doing everything possible to help, and letting you know that you really matter to us. Many PT offices have changed how they do business, with each therapist seeing multiple patients at a time. We believe each patient deserves our undivided attention. Not only that, we are continually seeking the latest training and techniques to ensure we do all we can to bring relief and healing to our patients. I’m proud of my entire team, my colleagues, who agree that the best way to provide physical therapy is by focusing intensely on one patient at a time.”
