Professional, Ethical, Licensed Massage Therapy Services

My philosophy as a Licensed Massage Therapist is deeply rooted in the concept of 'mind and body.' While I focus on providing relief from structural issues, my primary objective is to calm the nervous system.

I firmly believe that massage therapy does not necessitate pain to be effective and my goal is to aid the body in releasing stored tension by positively influencing the nervous system.

I employ a balanced approach, without resorting to painful techniques that trigger the body's natural 'armoring' response. Clients experience relief from muscle tension and pain while still being able to enjoy a sense of deep relaxation, even during deep tissue work. When we intentionally create uncomfortable pain on the table it causes the clients Nervous System to automatically armor up and tighten the myofascial system in order to protect from the "perceived threat" and pain.

I offer a range of massage modalities, including:
Swedish Massage - Level 1
Pre and Postnatal Massage
Integrated Therapeutic sessions where i combine techniques and tools to help alleviate problem issues. Designed more for focus work. See Level 2 and 3 sessions.
Hot Stone Massage
Cupping Therapy (Modern Cupping Therapy Company)
Therapeutic Cupping for Lymphatic Drainage (Modern Cupping Therapy Company)
Oncology Massage (SC4OM)
Manual Lymphatic Drainage - Vodder Method (KLOSE Institute)
PNF-based Facilitated Stretching (ProActive Massage)

Q & A **What will a massage session be like?
Many people are seeking massage therapy for their first time and are concerned about what to expect.

1- Massage Therapy is modest and respectful. You will be draped at all times under a sheet and blanket except for the specific area that is being worked on. After it is worked on it is covered up again.

2- All gluteal work is done through the sheet layer, and no work is done on the upper 3-4" of the inner thighs.

3- Breasts and genitals are covered at all times and never touched or massaged!

4 - Enforced cancellation policy. By booking an appointment, this spot is reserved for you. If you fail to give a 48 hour notice to cancel or reschedule your appointment, you will be charged 50% of the appointment fee. At 24hrs if you cancel or no-show you will still be charged the full session fee. If a card was used to book the appointment, a portion will be refunded back to you if one is owed, minus card processing fee. If a card was not used, no future appointments can be made until fee's are paid.

**Since my goal is mind and body therapy, i believe "no pain-no gain" deep tissue methods are counter productive and negates therapeutic benefits for *all* systems of the body. If you are of the "no pain, no gain" mindset and feel that the only way you can get relief is from a forceful ("can't hurt me") massage session - i am not the right therapist for you.

***Zero Tolerance Policy***

I am a licensed professional! I have a strict zero tolerance policy. Any form of sexual solicitation, requests, innuendo, jokes, conversation, etc. the session will immediately end, full session price will still be charged, and person will be banned from future sessions with me.
