My name is Linnsey Sires, and I believe that massage therapy can have a pretty phenomenal impact on your life. For me personally, massage therapy has helped me through the grueling process of training for multiple long distance races, helped me become more grounded and connected to my own body and inner self during times of transition and pain, and it certainly helped pull me through a pregnancy where I was considered "at risk" due to a diagnosis of perinatal depression (hormones are a tricky beast). 

Massage helped me develop an awareness of my own body--how it moves and how my emotional state effects things like my pain levels and posture. Massage helped me develop an awareness of my mental  state--like knowing this agitation I feel is anxiety or my lack of energy is perhaps depression. Massage has also helped me understand the often talked about link between the mind and the body, and how one effects the other and vice versa. This awareness has helped me be able to identify when I need to slow down.

This is why I became a massage therapist, so that I can help others recognize that life does not always have to be this race. That the best and sweetest things that happen in our lives are often in moments of stillness. That it's ok to rest and take care of yourself. As my Grandma Helen (love of my life) always said, "Don't worry about it, sweetie. It'll still be there for you in the morning."

Since 2007, I have been practicing as a licensed massage therapist, providing customized massaged and support using a variety of modalities. My passion for massage therapy runs deep. I love reading new research and learning new skills, which tends to benefit my clients by keeping my massage fresh and new. I understand the intimate nature of massage therapy and I feel so fortunate when people let me into their lives and let me try to help. I'm a trauma informed therapist who specializes in prenatal, postpartum and pain management massage. 

When I'm not working with clients, I'm hanging out with my most favorite humans. My husband, Dylan, and I have one beautiful son, Floyd. We love to hunt zombies and Big Foot in the woods, read stories, have dance parties and engage in massive pillow fights. My son enjoys a nightly foot massage from Mom at bedtime and Mom enjoys a nightly foot massage from Dad at TV time. Dad gets free massage, so don't feel too sorry for him! It's great to know that I'm raising a human that already has an awareness of how impactful therapeutic touch is.
