About Me

Tom Hardesty, CMT

Certified Lymphatic Drainage Therapist and Craniosacral Therapist

I graduated from the Colorado School of Healing Arts in 2002 and have over 1400 Hours of classroom and clinical training in Massage and Energy Work. My top specialty is Lymphatic Drainage Therapy, and many of my clients come to me for help with post-surgical swelling after having plastic surgery. I became certified in this modality in 2009 and it now comprises 75% of my practice. My technique helps with both the swelling that occurs immediately after surgery, and I also do a separate, light massage technique after 2 weeks to help eliminate the fibrosis that can occur later in the healing process. Most of my clients receive 2-3 sessions, spaced 2-3 days apart.

Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is another technique that I specialize in. I have been certified in this since 2003 and have had success treating everything from headaches to head, spinal or pelvic issues and injuries. It can also reduce anxiety, PTSD and emotional trauma, in addition to helping with neuro-degenerative and auto-immune disorders such as fibromyalgia and multiple sclerosis. CST does not “work” muscles or other body structures; instead, it works directly with the nervous system via static holds. This calms the nervous system as it helps circulate the cerebrospinal fluid. This process relaxes the entire body and promotes a feeling of well-being.

I have advanced certifications in Neuromuscular Massage, and I am certified in Pre-Natal Massage, Sports Massage and Applied Kinesiology as well. I am attuned as a Level II Reiki practitioner.

The body is a complex organism with many inter-related systems, and healing is often required on multiple levels. My philosophy is to treat not only the symptoms of the pain and dysfunction, but to also go deeper, when necessary, to find and address the root cause of the problem. I do this through a combination of deep tissue, light touch and subtle energy techniques.

My own 'A-Ha' moment came many years ago when I was being treated--unsuccessfully--for a hamstring injury. The person I was working with was treating only the muscle, and it would heal briefly only to re-injure itself again and again. I finally found someone who thought to look past the symptom and in so doing they found the cause: an issue in the hip joint that was putting excess strain on the muscle. One simple adjustment to the hip fixed both problems for good. Since then I have striven to look as deeply as possible to find underlying causes to problems, both with my clients and my own life.

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my wife, hiking and camping with my son, watching my daughter ride horses, practicing tai chi and yoga, and sneaking in some golf whenever I can.
