Massage is for everyone.
I view massage therapy as a foundational tool for wellness that I highly encourage people to make as part of their monthly health routine, both for wellness maintenance and life-burnout prevention. Massage has a positive impact on our entire system starting from hydration of the skin, encouraging fresh oxygenated blood to circulate areas of stagnation, and bringing movement to your lymphatic system for overall health. In massage we are working with the soft tissues (aka muscles) and addressing adhesions (aka knots) of the muscle fibers. I implement deep tissue and trigger point therapy to help assist in the release of pain patterns along with facilitated and Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) to produce positive effects on your range of motion and muscular function.

Guide to booking a massage while pregnant:
In Your First Trimester (Weeks Conception–13)
The session will be gentle and intended to ease your nervous system, ease early discomforts like nausea, headaches, and adaptions to new body changes.
Second Trimester (Weeks 14–27)
We can start integrating full body and safe deep tissue techniques.Third Trimester (Weeks 28–42)
One beautiful gift from community wanting to support is regular massage during the third trimester! Our massages during this window can help to relieve back, hip, and pelvic tension, encourage baby’s ideal positioning, and support circulation as your body gears up for birth.Birth Prep Window (Weeks 36–40+)
Ready, steady, here we grow! Massage during this window continues to help soften the muscles and fascia, regulates your nervous system, and prepare physically + emotionally for labor. When welcomed, I offer to incorporate acupressure, breathwork, and visualization preparing for your birth portal.Anytime You Feel Like You Need It
Coming in regular, about every 2-4 weeks helps to keep your body’s musculature and skeletal system in balance. Massage can be a powerful resource and reset whether you're having trouble sleeping, feeling anxious, or just craving a moment of peace.

$225 / 90 minThe postpartum period is a time when the body needs regular tending supported by nourishing practices. Our sessions evolve as the body heals and time passes. We eventually integrate pelvic rebalancing into our work together.
You are welcome to bring your newborn to any and all postpartum bodywork sessions. There will be a variety of soft, safe spaces nearby where your baby can rest and feel your proximity while you receive care. You are also welcome to snuggle your baby and feed your baby during a session. I offer to wear babies that need a bit of rhythm and movement to feel settled. By nurturing both you as parent and child together, we get to reimagine postpartum healing as a shared, integrated experience of rest, restoration, and connection.
** while newborns are always welcome to come to this session, sometimes it can effect the amount of time you enter a deep state of rest.
