FSM Massage & Cortical Field Re-Education (CFR)
Susan Jouett, FSM Massage Therapist
Background: Susan has over 30 years of expertise in massage, energy work, kinesiology, and fascia release techniques like myofascial release and craniosacral therapy. Extensively trained in Cortical Field Re-Education (CFR).
Approach: CFR gently explores new movement patterns that re-educate the brain, resolving chronic issues at the source rather than just symptoms.
The Experience:
- Table work passively moves the client to re-pattern the sensory cortex
- Floor work engages the motor cortex through guided movements
- Combining both retrains full brain-body connectivity
During your massage session, Susan will utilize one or more Frequency Specific Microcurrent devices to deliver resonate microcurrent frequencies directly to targeted areas of the body being massaged. This allows the FSM to penetrate deeper into the soft tissues.
Potential Benefits:
- Pain relief: FSM can help reduce pain and inflammation in the muscles and soft tissues being massaged.
- Accelerated healing: The specific frequencies used in FSM may stimulate cellular repair and tissue regeneration, complementing the massage work.
- Muscle re-education: FSM can facilitate muscle re-education and help restore proper muscle firing patterns, enhancing the effects of massage techniques.
- Increased blood flow: Both massage and FSM promote improved circulation, which can speed up recovery and removal of metabolic wastes.
- Reduced muscle tension: The microcurrent may help muscles release stored tension and spasms more effectively when combined with massage strokes.
The combined approach provides a multi-modal treatment addressing pain, muscle imbalances, circulation, and healing on multiple levels. However, it’s important for therapists to receive proper training in FSM before incorporating it into their massage practice.

What is Optimal Self?
Optimal Self is an approach and environment for people to learn how to move and feel better than before their injury, trauma, pain or limitations.
I am passionate about educating people and upgrading their nervous system and brain in a respectful manor.
It continues to be fun for me to witness students learning to trust their bodies and themselves as a way of empowerment and true healing.
This is not pain management, strengthening, stretching or exercise. It is a synthesis of methods that utilize your brilliant nervous system to re-wire movement that you once had and re-trains your brain using neuroplasticity. All bodies want to heal (think of a cold, cut or sprain that your body healed from).
The result is more fluidity, ease of movement and less pain at any age.
I have been in the education / healing practices since 1987.
