Treatments
Your session is customized by blending the techniques that best serve your goals. This is how massage therapy really works, less like choosing a single style off a menu and more like drawing from a toolbox to address whatever you bring in, whether that's chronic tension, a specific injury, or simply the need to slow down and reset.
Types of massage offerings:
01 Therapeutic: Relief for chronic tension, joint and muscle pain, and general relaxation.
02 Specialized: Adapted care for pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and oncology support.
03 Restorative: Massage paired with adjunct therapies including body wrapping, dry brushing, lymphatic flow techniques and aromatherapy.

Therapeutic Massage
A therapeutic massage blends several techniques into one seamless treatment, guided by your goals and adjusted as your body responds. It's well-suited to sore muscles, chronic areas of tension from posture or desk work, pain and limited mobility, and general relaxation and nervous system reset.
60-90 minutes; from $130-$170Modalities used-
Slow, deliberate strokes with sustained, localized pressure that reach the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. Rather than working broadly across the body, this technique targets specific areas of tension and adhesion and releases them gradually. Common focus areas include the neck, shoulders, lower back, and hips, where posture, stress, and repetitive movement tend to cause problems.
-
Long, flowing, rhythmic strokes with your choice of pressure. Deeply relaxing, it eases stress and anxiety, reduces muscle tension and pain, improves joint mobility and flexibility, and increases circulation to encourage the removal of toxins and waste.
-
Sustained, medium pressure that stretches the fascia and allows fibers to release. Fascia is the elastic web of connective tissue that surrounds every muscle, bone, nerve, and organ. Trauma, posture, repetitive strain, and inflammation can leave it tight, causing restriction, pain and reduced range of motion.
-
Rooted in an ancient Taoist practice that views the abdomen as the body's emotional and energetic center, this modality focuses on the abdominal muscles, fascia, and organs. It assists in releasing stress, anxiety and emotional blockages. It can ease bloating, constipation, painful periods, and back pain while increasing circulation and boosting immune system function.

As a trained, professional-level aromatherapist, I often incorporate essential oils into my treatments. These natural plant extracts—drawn from flowers, leaves, bark, roots, and resins—can be inhaled or blended into a massage oil. I find them helpful for easing muscle soreness, improving sleep quality, and reducing stress and anxiety. Scent also has a unique way of connecting us to memory and emotion We can discuss your preferences and decide together whether to include them in your session.
With essential oils, quality matters. I source my oils from Eden Botanicals. They grow and process the finest ingredients available from their five organic farms located in North America, Africa and Europe. This direct source ensures expertise in harvesting and extraction methods, and quality and transparency in all stages of production.
