When pro musicians overstress their bodies and minds, they turn to therapist Jason Adams to help relieve their injuries. Through education, personal training, & therapeutic massage, Adams helps professional musicians restore their physical and mental performance to optimum levels.
With his diverse training in multiple fields, Jason is quickly becoming well recognized by the music industry. Working with musicians who are under intense physical and mental strain—classical violinists who practice/perform hours a day, pro guitarists with shoulder/spinal injuries, and more acute and localized injuries like TMJ or carpal tunnel problems—Adams is sought-after by those seeking his experience and insight into music-related injuries.
His extensive study in classical and jazz music—saxophone, flute, clarinet, piano, voice, guitar, and percussion—lends Jason a unique insight into the specific stresses that musicians undergo each and every day during their practice, recording, and performance sessions. Jason blends this music background with his training in yoga and massage therapy, bringing a very introspective and intuitive knowledge base to his practice.
Practicing yoga for more than six years, Jason is greatly interested in how yoga and music can affect each other. As a result, Adams completed a series of articles for the Saxophone Journal in 2005. He has since been in demand nationally with his Yoga for Musicians lectures, having appeared at numerous symposiums and conferences. His series discusses some of the beneficial aspects that yoga—specifically Hatha yoga, breathing exercises, & meditation—can provide to a musician. In addition to his lectures, Jason is currently writing a text focusing on incorporating yoga into musical practice and performance.
As a Registered Yoga Teacher and Licensed Massage Therapist , Adams incorporates innovative techniques to help musicians attain beneficial results—such as working on the diaphragm of vocalists through massage techniques and yogic breathing exercises.
In their daily lives, musicians are under a lot of physical and mental stress—and Adams is striving to alleviate those tensions.
