Help your body regain balance.
Align Bodywork offers therapeutic massage and craniosacral therapy in Bend, Oregon. Founded by Gillian Bailey, licensed massage therapist, Align Bodywork is rooted in a holistic, empathetic approach to care that honors the complexity of the human body and the lived experience of pain.
Gillian’s approach to bodywork is shaped by both extensive clinical training and personal experience. She holds a Doctorate of Pharmacy and graduated from a rigorous 2,200-hour massage therapy program, giving her a deep understanding of musculoskeletal pathology, functional movement, and therapeutic treatment. Her work blends analytical insight with intuitive, hands-on care.
From a young age, Gillian lived with persistent, undiagnosed pain that limited everyday activities and shaped how she moved through the world. As an adult, learning about hypermobility disorders helped her make sense of symptoms she had carried for years. These experiences became the foundation for Align Bodywork, created to support individuals navigating complex pain, injury, and chronic conditions with care that is both informed and compassionate.
Every session at Align Bodywork is tailored to the individual. Treatments are guided by a whole-systems approach, meeting the body where it is and working collaboratively toward realistic, functional goals. No two sessions are the same. Open communication before, during, and after treatment is encouraged to ensure care feels effective, safe, and responsive—supporting long-term improvement in comfort, movement, and quality of life.
