You want a massage that treats your problem. Not just your symptoms.

Full body massage is great when your time is intentional and explained. And being told "your back is tight" doesn't help anyone. You deserve to know exactly what walking in and walking out looks like.

Here's what you can expect every session:

We'll talk through what hurts, where it shows up, and what you want to improve BEFORE you get on the table.

You'll know WHAT is being addressed and WHY...no silent guessing.

Pressure, discomfort, and response are checked and adjusted in real time.

Your time is focused intentionally—whether that's full body work, targeted treatment, or a mix based on what's driving your goals for the session.

Before you go, you'll understand what we worked on, how your body responded, and what your next steps look like.

You'll never be upsold on products or services that offer no benefit to your therapy.

If you have questions about a specific treatment, I'm happy to discuss it. If there's something that will benefit you, I will empower you to make those decisions yourself.

No pitches or upsells ever.

If your pain is related to muscle tension, restricted movement, overuse, or compensatory patterns, therapeutic massage is often an appropriate and effective option. In some cases a diagnosis is helpful or necessary before your treatment can begin. Many people arrive with pain that's hard to pinpoint and that's common. Each session starts by assessing how your body is moving and responding, not by relying on guesswork or generic routines. If your pain falls outside what massage can safely address, that will be communicated clearly. You won't be pushed into treatment that isn't a good fit for you.

It should NOT feel overwhelming or uncontrolled. Some techniques may involve focusing pressure or temporary discomfort, especially in areas that are tight or restricted but you should NEVER feel forced to endure pain. Your comfort and response guide the session and you're encouraged to speak up at any point. Most clients describe the sensation as "intense but tolerable," not painful. The goal is to work within your limits so your body can release and respond. You should leave feeling worked, not hurt, and confident your session was both safe and purposeful.

That depends on what's driving your pain and how your body responds to treatment. Some people notice meaningful improvement in just one or two sessions. Others benefit from a short series of visits to create lasting change. There's no required package or long-term commitment. Your first session is about understanding what's happening and how your body responds. From there, you'll have a clear recommendation and the choice to continue is always yours. Our goal is progress, not dependency.

You're encouraged to speak up immediately. Your feedback is an essential part of the session whether it's about pressure, positioning, discomfort, or anything else. Adjustments are made in real time so the work stays both effective and comfortable for you. You're always in control. If something doesn't feel right, you don't need to explain or justify yourself. Your comfort and safety always come first.

You only undress to your level of comfort and your boundaries are always respected. That said, in most cases, some clothing does need to be removed for your massage to be effective. Direct access to the muscles and tissues being treated allows for more precise, comfortable, and appropriate work. You'll always be properly draped and only the area being worked on is exposed at any time. If you prefer to stay partially clothed, that can be discussed and the session will be adjusted where possible. However, certain techniques and outcomes will be limited with clothing on and that will be explained so you can make an informed choice.

You don't need to bring anything special except yourself! Wear comfortable clothing that's easy to change out of, and arrive a few minutes early if it's your first visit. If you're coming from work, that's fine—you will have privacy to get settled. If there's anything specific about your pain or movement you think is important feel free to mention it, but no preparation is required on your part. Everything needed for your sessions is provided. The focus is on making your visit straightforward and stress-free, so you can concentrate on feeling better, not logistics.

You deserve to feel better just like anyone else regardless of your financial situation. If you enjoy your session and want to leave a tip, it's greatly appreciated and supports my working income. Many clients do choose to tip, while others don't. The choice is 100% up to you.
