Therapeutic Massage
I offer mobile and in-studio therapeutic, customized massage and bodywork. My work is very individualized and can best be described as calming, firm pressure, thorough, and results-oriented.
I typically start by warming the superficial layers of muscle and fascia, calming the nervous system, and then adding pressure gradually until we reach a firm and deep level of pressure that targets bound-up areas, restrictions, and other problematic spots. I also incorporate scraping, cupping, hot stones, and heat/cold therapies for maximum results.
If you have any questions please reach out to me! I typically book out 3-5 days and am available weekdays and weekends.
