During the massage, the space will remain nice and quiet, with minimal talking and chill, ambient soundscapes supporting a sense of gentle wakefulness. I’ll check in with you to make sure you are comfortable with how your body is positioned, and that the pressure I’m applying is right for you. You should feel free to let me know if something feels uncomfortable, if you need more or less pressure, or more or less attention to a particular part of the body. This is your time, after all, and I want it to be exactly what you need it to be.

When you arrive at the studio, we’ll have a quick chat to check in about how your body is feeling and what you want the focus to be during our session. Your massage is completely customizable to your needs! So, whether you are looking to reduce pain, increase mobility, or just relax, we will work together to create a personalized session that will meet you exactly where you are and bring you closer to where you want to be. After our check-in, I’ll leave you to disrobe to your comfort level, get cozy on the table, then we will begin the massage.

My practice often involves a blend of Swedish, deep tissue, and myofascial release techniques with assisted stretching. HELD offers additional services including cupping, infrared light therapy, aromatherapy, and hot stones, any of which can be added on at time of booking.
