Hi, I'm Tina Tongen ✨
Trauma-Informed Integrative Clinical Massage TherapistSomatic Coach

I partner with your nervous system to dissolve chronic pain, tension, and stress — through skilled, intuitive touch. Blending clinical massage, trauma-informed bodywork, and breath awareness, I offer both immediate relief and lasting resilience.

My sessions honor the body-mind connection, beginning with attentive listening and calming touch. This creates a safe space for your nervous system to unwind, guiding you toward deep, organic healing.

Working at your body's pace, I use trauma-informed touch, targeted stretching, and integrative therapies to help you:

  • Re-educate your nervous system for stress relief
  • Release stored tension and old holding patterns
  • Reconnect with your innate strength and vitality
  • Restore fluid movement and inner harmony
  • Rediscover holistic well-being

If you're also looking to build lasting calm and clear communication off the table, I offer Positive Intelligence® mental fitness coaching as a separate, complementary practice — ask me about Tina Tongen Coaching.

Ready to shift from survival mode to ease? Book your session today and embrace calm, clarity, and renewed energy.

Exactly what I needed. Tina is fantastic.

I got what I went in there for. I am also an LMT and my standards are high. I appreciate the communication skills that showed she cared and had knowledge. She asked questions to better understand how to help me in 30mins. 10 out of 10 recommend.

I would tell a friend to go make an appointment with Tina. She is a fantastic massage therapist and has a wonderful understanding of how to listen to what the client is telling her as well as listening to what the body is saying.
