About Us

What We Do 

Blanchard Wellness Clinic is a place of holistic healing and empowerment, where we get to the root of how to make the work we do with our clients stick. Our approach uses manual therapy to manipulate soft tissue, creating a window of opportunity for change, and to ultimately bring you toward alignment, delivering a rich interdisciplinary approach to every client, from infants to elite athletes.

We then step into that opportunity for change, assessing and addressing the root of the issue, both physically and mentally. Because how we feel in our bodies is deeply informed by what we eat, activities of daily living, life experiences, the emotions we carry forward from them, and long-established patterns of movement. We’ll look at how you eat, how you move and — crucially — your body alignment. And we’ll treat you with curiosity and compassion, getting to know the person you are and helping you draw connections between how you function in your life and how you feel in your body.

Our clinical work doesn’t have a menu of services. Your session might call for myofascial release, scar tissue mobilization and cupping one week, kinesiotaping, stretch rehab and holistic health coaching the next. Our expertise is broad-ranging, always incorporating new tools and techniques from the cutting edge. Every session at Blanchard Wellness Clinic is unique and open-ended, leaving room to tailor your care to your evolving needs, as you see and solidify progress. You’ll leave each session equipped with “homework” — like corrective exercises, or tools to increase postural awareness — empowering you to truly make the work stick.

We know that facilitating lasting change in our bodies is a complex task. At Blanchard Wellness Clinic, our multi-modal, multi-faceted approach is here to help you achieve this. 

The nervous system plays a large role in the possibility for change. Audrey has developed a protocol based, full body massage that can can break down barriers to progress and calm a dysregulated nervous system. This Stress Relief Massage may be suggested as an compliment to our more targeted work. Your therapist or doctor may recommend a series of treatments. And if you simply want to give the gift of a quality relaxation massage to a friend or family member, this one will not disappoint.

Because our love of teaching and facilitation doesn’t end with our clients, we also offer continuing education courses for our fellow clinical massage therapists, as well as community-building and education for the broader public, in the form of various resources and events. 

Who We Are

Our founder, Audrey Blanchard’s journey began in the most personal possible way — with herself. As a teen suffering from migraines, Audrey dived into the project of relieving her own suffering. Through dietary and postural change, and with some help from her mother — who is a neuromuscular therapist — she managed her migraines into remission for a decade.

She has since dedicated her entire working life to soft tissue manual therapy and complementary change-making disciplines. Starting young, she took full advantage of opportunities to learn “from the source,” hopscotching the country to receive training and mentorship from the founders of several elite modalities. But her early, holistic approach to her own healing stayed with her, informing a dream that — through decades of dedicated work and a host of certifications and avenues of study too numerous to list — became her reality, upon entering private practice in 2015.

That dream is Blanchard Wellness Clinic, a place of holistic transformation, where client agency and empowerment are among our core values. Here, our hope is not to turn clients into long-term regulars. It is to facilitate opportunities for change through education, coaching and support — and, if your needs exceed our scope of practice, referrals to our vetted list of local resources and practitioners — giving you the tools you need to maintain your own wellness in the long term.
