Kelly Valentine, LMT, PTA
Kelly began pursuing education in health and wellness as an undergrad at James Madison University, earning a B.S. Physical Education/ Coaching in 1987. A fascination with biomechanic structure and function has resulted in the pursuit of two additional areas of expertise- becoming a Licensed Massage Therapist in 2003, and being awarded Physical Therapist Assistant , A.A.S. in 2009.
This educational background has resulted in a variety of career opportunities over the years, ranging from classroom education to providing physical therapy for both outpatient and in-house populations. Her career is driven by the desire to assist people of all ages to achieve optimal function for their best quality of life. One of her greatest areas of contribution has been providing massage therapy to clients, honing a variety of manual therapy techniques to provide relief to clients with chronic pain.
In May of 2021 Kelly learned of Fascial Counterstrain technique, personally experiencing the modality for an area of injury. The impact from that single session resulted in the pursuit to become an FCS provider as a primary method to address health concerns.
Kelly remains committed to continued education in all areas of wellness, and welcomes the opportunity to partner with you in reaching your best health.

Fauzia Asad, PT
Fauzia Asad graduated from University of Maryland at Baltimore with her degree in physical therapy in 1993. Always seeking better outcomes for her patients, she had the opportunity to take many continuing education classes in different manual therapy techniques. She was introduced to Strain Counterstrain through the Jones Institute when Dr Lawrence Jones (founder of the technique) was teaching. After completing all strain counterstrain classes offered, this technique became the foundation for her interventions with patients. When she learned of an extension of this technique that could address fascial restrictions with a multi system approach, she recognized its importance and has since attended many classes. She incorporates this powerful technique into her treatment of a wide variety of patients and has found profound, long lasting results. She is also a certified lymphedema therapist and has found Fascial Counterstrain to be an invaluable tool in addressing lymphedema and lipidema in a population that is often underserved.

” I love this work. It is a joy to work with my hands listening to what you need and listening to the fascia shifting and relaxing in your body. I am committed to providing to you the experience of relaxing deeply into receiving, returning to yourself and letting go” -Celeste
