About Intuitive Hands

About the Practitioner

Hi. My name is Bichlien, but please call me Lien.

My passion for health and wellness has shaped my lifestyle and career. I love studying human movement, the brain-body connection, and how they are interconnected. Outside of my practice, you’ll find me exploring new fitness activities, embracing challenges, and continuously expanding my knowledge to better serve my clients.

With over 15 years as a Clinical Massage Therapist and Wellness Coach, and the past 5 years of Mobility Coaching, I am passionate about helping others live their healthiest, most vibrant lives. My curiosity about human movement and the mind-body connection has led me to explore a wide range of athletic disciplines ranging from traditional lifting to powerlifting, ballroom dance to Acro-yoga, and sports such as sand volleyball, boxing, or rock climbing - all of which have given me a deep, understanding of body mechanics, recovery, mobility, and injury prevention.

I understand that each person is unique, and my mission is to provide a safe and nurturing space for individuals seeking balance and vitality in their lives. In a judgment-free zone, I am committed to empowering every individual to take ownership of their health and making the necessary lifestyle shifts for longevity.

I look forward to working with you!

Sending Healing Energy,

Bichlien Tran

BichLien translates to Jade Lotus.

The lotus symbolizes rebirth, renewed energy, and withdraws into the mud every sundown to bloom anew each day.

What Sets Lien Apart

Origin

Intuitive Hands was born from my unique ability to blend logical mind and clinical training with deep intuition and the guidance of my hands and energy. With a dynamic athletic resume bringing about an extensive knowledge of muscles and joints, I bring an additional layer of depth and understanding as an active individual who faces similar challenges as my clients.

Certified Mobility Specialist

My coaching program addresses the root issues of pain prioritizing the balance of strength and flexibility and the health of muscles and joints through mobility coaching, stability training, corrective exercises, and targeted massage therapy. I will empower you with the knowledge and tools for self-massage, how to reduce joint inflammation, and develop efficient movement patterns that minimize, or even eliminate, aches and pains.

My Massage
is highly technical, results oriented, and I prioritize the nervous system's response. Each session is crafted with intentionality:

Techniques: I begin by proper warming of the tissue before delving into more detailed muscle work, ending with closing techniques to lengthen and stretch the joints and muscles. There is cohesiveness from beginning to end that enhances the therapeutic benefits without resistance for a deeper relaxation.
Fluidity and Tempo: The application of oil, pressure, and technique is done with careful attention to fluidity and tempo, ensuring a seamless transition from one technique and area of the body to another, without disruption of the nervous system response.
Muscle Tissue Limits: I have a deep understanding of muscle tissue health, the techniques necessary to facilitate release, and how to apply the right amount of pressure while respecting the boundaries between muscle resistance and client comfort. By assessing tissue health and employing effective methods, I can push the limits to yield quality results. My approach is both knowledgeable and attentive, ensuring a balance between effective treatment and client well-being.
Music Choice: Each session's music is carefully chosen to enhance relaxation and maximize therapeutic benefits, considering both brainwave patterns and energetic connections.

Energy Transference

I utilize the power of intuition and energy to guide my practice as a facilitator of an individual’s natural healing abilities, using my hands as a conduit for energy to restore and heal my clients. It is these intangible, unteachable skills that allow me to provide a unique and deeply personalized healing experience.
