Integrative bodywork that goes beyond massage therapy
meta physio is a bodywork practice in San Francisco led by Abbey Campbell, CMT. Massages at meta physio are informed by study of myofascial release, trigger point therapy, deep tissue massage, shiatsu, Reiki, and other energy balancing techniques. A session at meta physio can induce deep relaxation, ease muscle tension, aid in chronic and acute pain management, and restore one's mind-body connection. Using a holistic approach to wellness, sessions at meta physio dive deeper in finding the root cause of discomfort, rather than addressing only the symptoms.
With more than 13 years of experience, Abbey brings a wealth of knowledge, expertise, and intuition to the table. She tailors each session to the unique individual aiming to create a relaxing full body experience with focused release where needed. Structural work aids in release of muscles and connective tissue, while energy work helps quiet the mind and engage your body's natural healing abilities. Results are both immediate and cumulative.
Testimonials
As a competitive athlete my whole life I've invested heavily in massage treatment over the last 2 decades. Abbey is absolutely top notch. She not only listens to what you think you need, but she reads your body throughout each session feeding the areas that call for extra attention without sacrificing the full body experience. I have a chronic and structural lower back injury, and she provides the only therapy that has offered me longer term relief from pain. She is truly fluent in musculature and I've always left feeling the "hurt so good" feeling one craves from a massage (never sore from too much pressure, but rather satisfyingly worked). If you can spare 90 minutes, it's really life-changing with Abbey - I can't recommend more highly.

I’ve probably have had 100s of massages, of many sorts. Abbey is truly exceptional. She uses a wide range of approaches, applied very differently depending on the state of that muscle group. Long slow strokes; rapid yet deep movements; manipulations of energy flow; even approaches that are too difficult for me to describe. In fact, she can bring a whole range of strategies to bear on a single muscle group - a shoulder or calf muscle for example. Abbey has a real gift for therapeutic massage, and if that’s what you’re after, I urge you to give her a try!
