A full menu of therapeutic massage services tailored to your needs — from relaxing Swedish massage to targeted deep tissue work. Every session is customized by a dual-licensed LPN/LMT with a clinical understanding of the body. Available in 60, 90, and 120-minute sessions.

Not every massage should follow the same script, and that's exactly the philosophy behind our Therapeutic Massage service. Rather than committing to a single fixed modality, therapeutic massage draws from multiple techniques — Swedish, deep tissue, myofascial release, and trigger point work — and blends them together based on what your body actually needs during that particular session. One week that might mean lighter, more relaxation-focused strokes if you're dealing with stress and tension.


The next visit might call for more targeted, firmer work if you've developed a specific knot or area of chronic tightness. The point is flexibility: you get a massage built around your body's real, current needs, rather than a predetermined package that doesn't adjust
to how you're actually feeling that day. This approach requires real skill and clinical judgment from your practitioner. Rather than defaulting to a single
technique regardless of what you present with, therapeutic massage means actively assessing your body at the start of each session — where you're holding tension, whether you're dealing with acute soreness versus chronic tightness, whether you're looking primarily for relaxation or genuine pain relief — and then selecting and blending techniques accordingly.


Some clients need broad, sweeping Swedish strokes to calm an overactive nervous system. Others need sustained, targeted pressure on a specific trigger point that's been causing referred pain. Many clients benefit from a combination of both within a single session. One of the biggest advantages of this approach is that it treats you as an individual rather than assuming everyone who books a massage wants the same experience. Chronic pain, tension, and stress show up differently in every body, and they change over time even within the same person — the tension you're carrying during a stressful work week looks different from what shows up after a long flight or an intense workout. Therapeutic massage adapts to that reality instead of forcing every session into the same predetermined mold. A typical therapeutic massage session starts with a brief conversation about how you're feeling, any specific areas of concern, and your pressure preferences for that day.


From there, your practitioner moves through the session using whatever combination of techniques makes sense based on what they're feeling in your muscle tissue and what you've communicated about your goals. This might mean starting with lighter Swedish strokes to warm up the tissue and calm your nervous system, then moving into more focused deep tissue or trigger point work on specific areas of tightness, before finishing with broader, more relaxing strokes to bring your system back down before you leave. Therapeutic massage benefits go well beyond simple relaxation, though that's certainly part of it. Physically, it improves circulation, increases flexibility, and can meaningfully reduce chronic pain and tension when done consistently over time. Emotionally and mentally, regular massage has a well-documented effect on reducing stress and supporting overall well-being — something that matters just as much as the physical benefits, particularly for clients juggling demanding careers, family responsibilities, or the stress of managing a health condition or recovery process alongside everyday life.


How often you should schedule therapeutic massage really depends on what you're using it for. Clients managing chronic tension, ongoing stress, or a physically demanding job or lifestyle often benefit from regular sessions — sometimes weekly or biweekly — to keep tension from building back up between visits. Other clients use therapeutic massage more occasionally, as a periodic reset during particularly stressful stretches or simply as a form of ongoing self-care. There's no single right answer here; we'll talk through your goals and lifestyle during your first visit and make a recommendation based on what actually fits your life. Therapeutic massage also pairs naturally with several of our other services. Many clients combine it with Reiki for a session that addresses both physical tension and a deeper sense of emotional and energetic balance. Others use it alongside lymphatic drainage, particularly if they're dealing with both muscular tension and some degree of fluid retention or puffiness.


Whether you're looking for a single restorative session or an ongoing part of your wellness routine, therapeutic massage is designed to meet you exactly where you are, every time you come in.
