Meet the Founder

JESSICA PRICE

Jessica Price is the driving force behind AUSTINDEEP—a visionary who has spent over two decades reshaping whatʼs possible in therapeutic bodywork. Originally from South Texas, Jessica moved to Austin in the late 1990s, discovering her passion for massage while working as a receptionist at a holistic health clinic. By the age of 20, she had found her calling, quickly realizing her innate talent for understanding the bodyʼs needs and the transformative power of touch.

Jessicaʼs journey was marked by curiosity and a commitment to excellence. Early exposure tophysical therapy and holistic health gave her a unique perspective, especially regarding fascia — the connective tissue that plays a crucial role in how our bodies move and feel. Recognizing gaps in traditional massage, Jessica developed The DEEP™ Method: a fascia-first, science-backed approach that delivers real, lasting relief rather than fleeting relaxation.

Since founding AUSTINDEEP in 2002 at just 25 years old, Jessica has relentlessly pursued her mission: to elevate the standard of care in massage therapy and create meaningful career paths for therapists. Her leadership and innovation have made AUSTINDEEP the go-to destination for results-driven bodywork in Texas.

The DEEP Method

Not your average deep tissue massage.

After years of studying fascia science, biomechanics, and pain patterns, Jessica Price developed what would become The DEEP™ Method—a revolutionary, science-backed approach that treats the body as the interconnected system it actually is, not the disconnected parts most traditional massage assumes.

The DEEP™ Method is a trademarked, fascia-first protocol that starts at the root—your connective tissue—and works outward. Each session follows a precise sequence designed to restore movement, unwind pain patterns, and deliver real, lasting relief—without unnecessary pain or guesswork.

This isn’t your yoga studio’s relaxation massage. It’s not even what most people call “deep tissue.” The DEEP™ Method is a structured, methodical system that:

  • Resets your nervous system (goodbye, chronic stress patterns)
  • Releases fascial restrictions (hello, freedom of movement)
  • Restores natural alignment (without forcing it)
  • Delivers lasting relief (not just until tomorrow)

Why it works

  • Targets fascia—the connective tissue that holds everything together
  • Improves circulation, posture, and physical performance
  • Relieves chronic tension and helps prevent injury
  • Calms the nervous system while reactivating the body

At AUSTINDEEP, there’s no fluff. No guessing. No “freestyle.” Just a proven system—executed with precision and care.

The DEEPACADEMY

The School That’s Changing the Massage Industry.

Jessica Price’s commitment to excellence doesn’t stop in the treatment room. She launched The DEEPACADEMY to fuel the growth of The DEEP™ Method and train a new generation of mission-driven bodyworkers.

The academy offers a unique, fast-tracked massage licensing program—at no cost for those who qualify—making quality massage education more accessible and affordable than ever.

With small cohorts and hands-on mentorship, every student receives personalized attention and direct guidance. The curriculum is immersive, rigorous, and rooted in the latest fascia science.

Graduates move quickly from licensure to advanced DEEP™ Method training—and from there, into careers at AUSTINDEEP, where starting salaries range from $5,000 to $6,000 per month.

Jessica’s advocacy also helped pass state legislation in Texas that now allows half of all required massage training hours to be completed online—lowering barriers for aspiring therapists, single parents, and career changers across the state.

OUR MISSION

To raise the bar for massage therapy—for clients, therapists, and the industry as a whole.

We Believe

  • Massage is a serious, science-backed form of care
  • Relief should be consistent and long-lasting
  • Fascia is the future of bodywork
  • Therapists deserve purposeful careers, growth, and leadership opportunities

At AUSTINDEEP and The DEEPACADEMY, we’re not just offering massage. We’re offering transformation—of your body, your health, and your career.

“I’ve spent my career raising the bar on what massage should feel like—because people deserve more than fluff. People come to us when nothing else has worked. My goal has always been to deliver real relief—and to make that the standard, not the exception. At AUSTINDEEP, we’ve built a method that changes bodies, rewrites patterns, and raises expectations. This isn’t a moment of relaxation. It’s a turning point.”
