Massage

  • Table massage is practiced with minimal dress, according to your comfort, using draping to preserve modesty and lotion or oil to allow gliding massage strokes.

    Arrive 5-10 minutes early- not 20 minutes early, not right on time. Arrive as you are, hydrated but not needing the restroom. Please avoid heavy makeup, as your face will be in a headrest.

  • Thai Massage is practiced clothed on a floor mat, allowing a great deal more stretching and mobilization and less gliding pressure.

    Please arrive 5 minutes before your appointment, dressed as you would for a yoga class- clothing you can move in.

  • At the bottom of the Mariana Trench, the water pressure is rather like 100 adult elephants all standing on your head.

    My pressure isn’t quite that deep.

    In all seriousness, I use a variety of techniques including gentler work like myofascial release and cupping to target superficial fascia and musculature, and deeper work to reach deeper muscles.

  • If you have EDS and want table massage, I highly recommend working with my friend Kaeti Frady at Root and Branch: https://www.rootandbranchbodywork.com/

    If you would like a Thai Massage with me, there are ways to cue your stabilization and have a great experience! Hypermobile folk who have done Thai with me have had a great time, though they have also reported needing to put extra focus later that day as far as limbs staying in place carrying groceries and the like. Plan a light day for yourself after this work.

Policies

  • If you show up a little late, I’ll use the time I have to do what we can for you. If there is no client booked immediately after you, I may get your session closer to full length, but don’t plan on that.

    If you need to cancel, tell me ASAP. Cancelling up to 24 hours beforehand is a full refund. Cancelling up to 4 hours before is a 50% refund. Exceptions may be made for cases of illness.

  • I do not work directly with insurance companies, but I’m happy to produce receipts if your insurance reimburses you for massage services.

  • Tipping is not an expectation, but is always welcome and appreciated! If you feel moved by the work I did, I also appreciate getting reviews (Google and otherwise), referring your friends and family to the studio, and spreading the word on social media.  Whatever form you offer it in, I sincerely appreciate your support.

  • By submitting your phone number, you are consenting to receive text messages from us. You can opt out at any time by texting "STOP."

    Your phone number will be used for appointment reminders and follow-up client care, as well as to inform regular clients of new offerings / deals with Wellspring.
