Swedish "Classic" Massage
30 min - $40 | 60 min - $65 | 90 min - $90 | 120 min - $120

This technique aims to promote relaxation by releasing muscle tension. Swedish, aka "Classic", massage is gentler than deep tissue massage and better suited for people interested in relaxation and tension relief.

Swedish massage can loosen up tight muscles caused by daily activities such as sitting at the computer or exercising. It can be very helpful for people who hold a lot of tension in their lower back, shoulders, and neck.

Your therapist will use a variety of techniques including long gentle strokes, deep circular movements, kneading, and passive joint movements. These techniques are meant to relax you, stimulate nerve endings, and increase blood flow and lymph drainage. The pressure of this massage will always stay within your comfort range.

A traditional Swedish massage involves the whole body (60 minutes or more). You will begin on either your back or your stomach and flip over at the halfway point. If these positions aren't available for your body, massage can also be performed in a side-lying position.

Aromatherapy included.

Deep Tissue Massage
30 min - $50 | 60 min - $80 | 90 min - $110 | 120 min - $145

Deep Tissue Massage is a blend of therapeutic techniques that focus on reaching deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue. It involves applying firm pressure & slow strokes to release chronic tension, break down scar tissue, and address specific musculoskeletal issues. It is effective for reducing pain & inflammation, improving mobility, reducing stress & anxiety, and enhancing range-of-motion.

To ensure the muscles and tissues are properly warmed up, this session will begin similarly to a Swedish "Classic" Massage, building gradually to include soft tissue release, cross fiber friction, trigger point therapy, range of motion with pin & stripping of the focal adhesions, and/or myofascial release. Your therapist may use thumbs, a reinforced thumb, knuckles, forearms, or elbows to deliver the pressure needed.

PLEASE NOTE: Deep tissue massage is often described as "hurts so good". However, if you experience pain beyond your preference/threshold, you should immediately verbally communicate this to your therapist.

CONTRAINDICATIONS: People with blood clotting disorders or with an increased risk of bone fractures (especially osteoporosis) should check with their doctor before receiving a deep tissue massage. Other possible risks include bruising, aggravation of previous injuries, and nerve lesions.

Aromatherapy included.

Thai Massage / Passive Whole Body Stretching
60 min - $80 | 90 min - $110 | 120 min - $145

If you're not into stretching.. but know your body needs it.. this is the session for you! It's *definitely* for you if you LOVE a good stretch.

Thai massage is a unique & holistic approach to bodywork that combines elements of massage, yoga, acupressure, soft tissue release, body stretching, and movement education to improve flexibility & range-of-motion, relieve muscle tension, calm the nervous system, improve the posture, function and mobility of the body, and enhance your overall well-being.

You will remain clothed for this session. Session opens with hot towels on the feet & aromatherapy. Your therapist will use hands, thumbs, elbows, forearms, feet & knees are to apply pressure, stretch, and manipulate your body.

Recipient’s often report feeling simultaneously deeply relaxed and totally invigorated post-session. Actual client post-session remarks include "I feel like I could do a backflip!" and "I think I could do anything right now!".

PLEASE NOTE: This session is Thai Massage "on the table". Thai Massage "on the mat" coming in Summer 2024!

Medical Massage
45 min - $80 | 60 min - $95 | 90 min - $125

These sessions are part in-depth assessment/evaluation + hands-on massage.

Medical massage is a type of therapy focused on addressing specific conditions, injuries, or musculoskeletal issues. Goals include reducing pain, improving flexibility & range-of-motion, enhancing circulation, and supporting the body’s natural healing process. It involves a more outcome-oriented approach as we target the root causes of pain and discomfort, as well as measure, record & track your progress.

Medical massage can complement conventional medical treatments and may be recommended for individuals recovering from injuries, managing chronic pain conditions, preparing for or recovering from surgery, or seeking relief from specific musculoskeletal issues. Rather than a full body treatment, this session is specifically oriented to the region of the body requiring assistance.

At the start of your session we will take measurements & notes on the area to be addressed in order to track your progress. (approx 15 min) The remainder of your session is hand-on massage. Depending on your goals, you should ideally plan to have treatments scheduled regularly. (Once a week, every other week, or monthly.)

If your condition is severe or recent, please speak with your doctor before receiving a massage.

Prenatal (Pregnancy) Massage
60 min - $65 | 90 min - $90

Mama is cradled, cushioned, and supported with many pillows, allowing for massage in a side-lying position. The intention of this session is to gently relax tense muscles, soothe sore spots, improve circulation and mobility, and truly to help mama feel relief.

Safe and beneficial for the healthy, expecting mother, generally in her 2nd trimester or beyond. Please speak with your healthcare practitioner before booking.

Hot Stone Massage
60 min - $90 | 90 min - $120 | 120 min - $155

A soothing combination of heat and massage. 100% natural basalt stones are heated to a comfortable temperature and held in the therapist's hands as they glide over your skin. Your therapist will alternate between hot stone application and hands-on massage to your pressure preference.

Heat has many beneficial effects, including enhanced circulation, muscle relaxation, pain relief, increased elasticity, reduced stiffness, relaxation, and stress reduction.

CONTRAINDICATIONS: Be aware, there are physical conditions where heat is not indicated, such as:
- Any condition involving a loss of sensation, including Neuropathy, Diabetes, Peripheral Vascular Disorder, High Blood Pressure, or areas post-surgery, injury, or trauma where nerves have been affected.
- Pregnancy, due to the rise in body temperature.
- Cardiac Patients.
- Anyone taking medications that have side effects to heat.
- Anyone on Chemotherapy or radiation treatments.
- Anyone with a depressed immune system, including clients with Lupus, Epstein Barr, Mononucleosis, HIV / AIDS, or Cancer.
- Geriatric clients should seek their healthcare professional's approval beforehand.
- Anyone with Burns, Psoriasis, Skin Cancer, Dermatitis, Eczema, Acne, Shingles, Herpes, or any acute skin condition.
- Any condition in which massage in general is contraindicated.

Contrast Hydrotherapy Massage
60 min - $90

This is always a targeted treatment, with hot & cold application only to a specific region of the body (not a whole body session). The technique involves massage and alternating applications of heat & cold to a specific area of the body. It is helpful to reduce inflammation, promote circulation, and relieve muscle soreness.

Contrast Hydrotherapy is beneficial for athletes, those recovering from injury, and those seeking relief from chronic pain.

Therapeutic Stretch Lesson
60 min - $60 | 90 min - $90

Stretching is one of the best things you can do for your precious body, and I believe we could all do with a good, conscious stretch routine. Especially so if we are experiencing discomfort in the body. Allow me to teach you a handful of stretches that will be specifically helpful to you in achieving your movement goals. Together we will practice stretching within your comfort and ability range.

If you...
- Have problem areas
- Are recovering from injury or surgery
- Are feeling "stuck" in your hips, back, shoulders, hands or feet
- Have range-of-motion issues
- Have posture issues
- Are experiencing chronic discomfort
...or maybe you simply want to keep up the good work achieved loosening tight muscles in your massage session, then consider a Therapeutic Stretch Lesson.

I will demonstrate and guide you through a variety stretches, explain their benefits, and you will go home with personalized notes. We can also take photos on your device if you would like images to reflect on to remember the stretches when you go home.

You'll want to wear comfy clothes for this session, something you feel good stretching in. You may bring your own mat and props if you have them. If not, I will supply a mat, pillows, blanket, and various props.

Stretches may be seated on the ground, seated on a chair, or standing postures, always staying within your comfort range.

***In addition to being a Licensed Massage Therapist, I am also a certified yoga instructor.***
