Deep Tissue
This therapeutic work is for everyone; for people experiencing chronic pain, soreness, injury recovery, or the strain of the day-to-day.
This session will be focused on tailored orthopedic work, targeted trigger points/knots and body mobilization techniques.
My deep tissue work is slow, intentional and flowy to ensure your nervous system is relaxed and ready to receive deeper work. This relaxing yet deep and clinical style of massage is my signature style.
-
Swedish
This flowy, relaxation-based massage is a perfect escape from the stress and anxiety of everyday life.
It will start with a Palo Santo cleansing, healing music of your choice to calm the mind and spirit. Then we dive into the slow, calming work that helps slow down the breath. This massage can serve as a nervous system reset, bringing awareness back into your body, slowing down and being present.
The pressure is up to you, we can keep it light as Swedish are traditionally or use medium to firm pressure.
-
Sports
This faster-paced session is for those seeking help with injury recovery and range of motion.
This work integrates stretching, active resistance techniques, Acupressure/Trigger point therapy and myofascial work. This is not a relaxing session and requires some active communication around assisted stretches and problem-solving.
After this session, we will go through various stretches and lifestyle changes to continue your recovery outside of our time together.
-
Cupping
This traditional technique utilizes a vacuum force created by a small cup onto the skin's surface.
Cupping is used to provide deep relief by increasing blood flow to the area. This helps to soften scar tissue and fascial adhesions/knots. It works like an extra pair of hands, providing longer holds while other bodywork is being performed.
I deeply believe in the effectiveness of cupping and do not want there to be any more barriers to it; therefore, it is a free to add-on to any service.

I want all my clients to feel informed, comfortable and respected while on my table. If it is your first massage I will run you though all the details before the session starts of what to expect, how to undress/what level, pressure, etc.

It is vital that you provide an accurate health intake, as there are certain conditions that could be made worse by massage. I retain the right to refuse service to anyone for whom I feel massage would be unhealthy, damaging, or inappropriate (for you or me). Please be sure to update your health records periodically.
