JASPER ELLIOTT WOLFE - LMT, NMT, E-RYT

Jasper Elliott Wolfe believes in the healing power of touch, of practicing deep presence, and of nature reconnection. She believes that by practicing presence we are reconnected with our Spirit and the source of our creation. Jasper’s greatest passion is sharing with others her love of yoga, bodywork, music, the Earth, and the myriad of ways to connect with the Divine. Through this shared experience we remember who we really are and that we are not alone. We remember that we belong to the Earth and she to us. We remember that life is precious and fleeting… and we wake up to our lives in an embodied way. We wake up to love.

Since the Pandemic, Jasper teaches weekly zoom classes of Slow & Sacred flow, Slow Core flow, Restorative yoga, and Yoga for Stress Relief. All of her classes are mixed level, are taught at a slow pace, incorporate props, and include alignment instruction as well as breathing exercises. Guided meditation, poetry readings, and various musical instruments and singing bowls create a unique and relaxing environment. She leads a practice that emphasizes moving at a pace that is unique and authentic for the practitioner with a focus on feeling gratitude in each and every moment.

HALEY GILLIAN - LMT, NMT

Tee Jay Henderson

Tee Jay is a Massage Therapist that practices Esalen Massage, Deep tissue massage techniques, Reiki, and Sports Massage.

An Esalen massage is a form of deep-body massage that incorporates many techniques and modalities. Tee Jay is also a Reiki Master and incorporates energy work into all of his therapy sessions as well as sports massage, which consists of stretching and deep-tissue massage.

Henderson may be one of the few certified Esalen Deep Bodywork practitioners in Alabama and one of the few in the Southeast.

The father of two is a Brighton native, who lives in Midfield with his wife, Terica, and children, Keshawn Avery, 21, and Tyler Henderson, 6. He attended Holy Family High School and graduated from Birmingham Southern College (BSC), where he earned a bachelor’s degree in business management, which he uses in his work as an independent contractor all over the southeast.

After completing his undergraduate studies, Henderson initially wanted to continue his education by pursuing a major in physical therapy and minor in massage therapy “not knowing the two were completely different modalities that had nothing to do with each other,” he said.

Once he found out that he could study massage therapy separately, he enrolled at the Birmingham School of Massage and earned a dual degree in neuromuscular therapy and professional massage—skills.
