Jeff Cohen Therapy

Jeffrey Cohen, is a world-renowned expert in soft tissue therapy, a highly specialized bodywork modality he created for treating nagging injuries that prevent people from working or enjoying everyday physical activity. The author of Intentive Touch: The Cohen Method of Soft Tissue Therapy, he combines ancient Philippine healing arts with contemporary western physiotherapies to address underlying inflammatory conditions that lead to chronic pain.

Cohen’s high performance clients include professional dancers, musicians and athletes who often suffer from repetitive stress injuries. He tours nationally and internationally with the San Francisco Symphony, the Mark Morris Dance Group and the San Francisco Ballet and is the Professor of Musical Health and Wellness at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. As a lifelong musician and composer, Cohen understands that the body is like a large orchestra where pain is a sign that indicates that specific muscles, tendons and ligaments, need focused fine tuning.

Cohen applies the same sophisticated techniques he uses on world class athletes and artists to treat people dealing with common injuries that prevent them from working or enjoying physical activity. Unlike many traditional therapies, his work focuses more on the quality of the touch itself, balancing intention and intuition with intensity and intervention. Now in his fourth decade year of practicing bodywork, he continues to study and work at his craft in order offer his clients relief from chronic or acute pain issues that have defied conventional treatment.

Cohen lives with his wife, Isabel, and canine assistant, Buster in San Rafael CA.
