Feel lighter, more grounded and connected to your body. Sleep like a baby. Melt tensions; physical and emotional. With the therapist’s advanced trainings and holistic, intuitive approach; this session aims to bring the body into balance. Sessions focus on any current or chronic issues, in addition to unraveling compensation patterns. Repetitive movement, sitting for work and injury cause muscle tightness, tender muscles and trigger points. Warming up tissues by working superficial to deep, this deep tissue massage should cause minimal discomfort. Please alert the therapist if a tolerance is reached. Utilizing joint work, myofascial stretching, cupping, gua sha, trigger point, PNF, and many other tools at the therapists disposal, you will be left feeling fully relaxed and rejuvenated.

Previously known as Maya Adominal and Arivgo therapy, these techniques are tried and true. Often neglected in most massages, abdominal massage gives support to the vagus nerve and lymph vessels. Helpful for low back pain, painful periods, fertility support, hip, pelvic and sacral issues. Abdominal Therapy incorporates thorough treatment of low back, hips, and sacrum. You will also be given instructions on how to continue your abdominal massage journey at home. This is one of my favorite offerings.

Tight and tense muscles benefit greatly from fire cupping. Heated air is used to create suction. The smooth glass is then left stationary or used to slide along the erectors next to the spine. This can be delightfully intense. Other forms of cupping are available without use of fire. These can be much less intense, especially in the case of facial and lymphatic cupping. Being well hydrated is highly recommended for all forms of massage, but especially this as it can result in soreness and slight bruising. Don’t be afraid of the bruising, this promotes healing to the area. Please plan to take extra good care of yourself after this session.

The lymph system moves the bodies water, an important part of the immune system. Using techniques that I have been taught as well as incorporating recent research- this session may be unlike other lymphatic massages. Please know that lymph may be blocked because of tight muscles and is supported through movement. For instance, if your shoulder is not able to move through a full range of motion, that could mean multiple muscles are tight and the major lymph vessel that returns lymph back to the blood stream could be blocked. Or the cranial base could be uneven, preventing the lymphatics of the brain and face to drain properly, again- this can be muscle related. So- while a light soothing superficial skin contact massage is nice- it will not have a lasting effect until the muscles are released. I am trained to spot areas of congested lymph, and I use that as my guide to release muscles in the area and then help push congested lymph.

At 12 weeks, you may comfortably have your first visit. We have a pregnancy pillow which allows for comfortable prone positioning. At 28 weeks, special abdominal and hip techniques may be added. These visits are usually constrained to a 60min session- if you’d like a 90min, please reach out first. This can be a relaxing session and if you are looking for more therapeutic work- that can be incorporated. Some therapists will only offer Swedish style and avoid pressure to specific points- but I’m here to tell you this is not supported scientifically. If you need some serious aches and pains worked out while you’re pregnant, I can help.

Craniosacral therapy employs gentle touch to relieve tensions in the craniosacral system, which encompasses the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid around the brain and spinal cord. This method highlights the energetic and emotional aspects of healing, promoting deep relaxation and a sense of safety. Clients can process past traumas and stress, making this therapy effective for conditions like chronic pain, anxiety, and trauma. It ultimately leads to meaningful changes in both physical and emotional well-being.

A toasty treat for any body. Perfectly smooth and heated stones are used to relax hard working muscles. Feel each muscle relax under the penetrating warmth. Integrating the heated stones with Swedish and Deep Tissue techniques allows the therapist to work deeper more readily.

Ruby is the massage room's supervisor, breathing coach, the offices friendly greeter, and all around best dog (in my opinion). She is often found napping in the massage room or burying bones outside.  Catch her snoozing peacefully in her bed and maybe if you’re lucky, hear her “underwater” dream barks. A total sweetheart.
