Therapeutic Massage with Body Optimalization

Mainly Deep Tissue, Swedish Massage and Stretching. This massage can be an overall relaxing body tune up or a complete session dedicated to a particular area or issue. I include Body Optimalization in this massage, which means that I apply stretching and pressure in a way that relieves structural imbalances in the body. Body Optimalization eliminates pain and allows stress free, unrestricted movement.

This form of massage is perfect for you if:

  • You want a good overall massage that incorporates skillful work on target areas
  • You woke up with a pain in the neck, low back or have any restricted movement
  • You overdid it at the gym or in any activity
  • Are either hurting, really stiff, achy, tense or sore
  • Are managing your scoliosis or other structural misalignment
  • You do repetitive movements such as computer work, construction, hairdressing, heavy lifting


This massage can be anywhere from 30-90 minutes

Thai Massage

This is the traditional massage of Thailand which dates back to the time of the Buddha and is considered part of Traditional Thai Medicine. Historically, it has been practiced over the centuries in Temples by Monks who preserved this lineage and knowledge. This form of massage is a marriage of Chinese and Auyervedic principles, focusing on unblocking the flow of energy through channels called sen lines, similar to meridians in the Chinese system or nadis in the Auyervedic.

Working with the client fully clothed on a mat on the floor, I move and stretch them in "yoga type" postures that unbind deeply held tension. I also apply deep tissue massage, acupressure, and body optimalization as needed. This method is exponentially more powerful and potent for unbinding the body and creating spacious relaxed movement with longer lasting results.

This form of massage is perfect for you if:

  • You are athletic
  • You need to stretch more
  • Are tight in any area
  • Want a dynamic and all encompassing treatment
  • Need a jumpstart to energize a workout or yoga practice
  • Want to systematically work through issues that are affecting your whole body


This style of massage is best if received in 90 minute to 2 hours sessions

Hot Stone Massage

This massage is the fastest track to deep serenity, relaxation and stress relief. It is so much more than just having warm stones placed strategically on the body. I massage the whole body slowly with the stones, allowing the warmth to penetrated deeply into the muscles, relieving deep muscle tension and mental stress. This is considered a hydro-therapy treatment, and can alleviate muscle soreness due to overwork like no other method. I also use cold marble stones to relieve areas of inflammation, pain, and congestion. In fact, both heat and cold are known for their pain reducing qualities.

This form of massage is perfect for you if:

  • You are completely stressed and need to seriously slow down
  • Want to go into a deep trance-like relaxation
  • Want to be completely pampered
  • Feel scattered and want to ground and center yourself
  • Have overdone it in sports, dancing, or other activities
  • Have really tight areas that don't respond to hands on massage


This massage is 90 minutes to 2 hours and is only available in my office:

Chair Massage

Done on-site on a massage chair fully clothed, this massage incorporates deep tissue, pressure point work, stretching and traction to alleviate back, neck, shoulder, arm and hand tension. Usually done in short sessions of 10-20 minutes, this is a great solution for busy people without time for a full laying down session.

This form of massage is perfect for you if:
You have neck, shoulder and back tension
Have overuse issues with your arms and hands
Are on the go or at work and want a short session
Don't want to remove clothing or get oiled up
You just want a mini tune-up
You don't have time or space to completely zone out
You need some bodywork and want to relax and energize
