Trauma-informed massage focuses on creating a safe, supportive environment where your boundaries are respected.

It takes into account past trauma, prioritizing your emotional and physical safety.

Gentle touch, clear communication, and a pace that suits you help promote relaxation and healing without triggering stress responses.

Whatever session you choose, my approach is always trauma-informed, ensuring your experience is tailored to your needs.

During the session, I guide you to focus on sensations like the pressure of the massage, your breath, and areas of tension. This mindful awareness helps you reconnect with your body, promoting deeper relaxation and stress release.

At first, your awareness might be brief, but that’s completely normal. With practice, you'll become more attuned to your body’s subtle signals, enhancing the connection over time.

In your first session, we’ll go over your intake form, discuss your needs, and make sure you feel comfortable.

The session itself will be customized based on your preferences, and I’ll check in throughout to ensure you feel safe and supported.

Absolutely. I offer gentle, trauma-informed bodywork tailored to your comfort level.

Communication is key, and we’ll proceed at a pace that feels safe for you.

Your comfort is my top priority. We’ll discuss pressure, touch preferences, and boundaries throughout the session.

You’re encouraged to express what feels good or if something needs adjusting, and you’re always in control.

My approach is trauma-informed and designed for sensitive souls, focusing on creating a safe, nurturing space where you feel fully supported.

In addition to prioritizing emotional and physical comfort, I guide you in reconnecting with your body and learning to befriend your emotions.

By helping you become more aware of your body’s sensations, this approach encourages a deeper connection with yourself, allowing you to release tension, process emotions, and feel more grounded.

Holistic massage focuses on the whole person—body, mind, and spirit—rather than just treating specific physical issues.

Unlike other types of massage, which may concentrate on relieving muscle tension or pain in targeted areas, holistic massage aims to balance the entire body, promoting overall well-being and relaxation.

Techniques are personalized to each individual, considering emotional and energetic needs in addition to physical symptoms, creating a more nurturing, integrated experience.

No, you don’t need to talk unless you feel comfortable. I encourage you to focus on your body and relaxation. However, I’ll check in periodically to ensure you feel safe and supported.

In Grounded In Your Body sessions, communication is encouraged but not required.

Sharing what comes into your awareness helps me tailor the session to your needs, ensuring a more responsive and supportive experience. However, you’re welcome to share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with.

Yes! Reiki or energy work can be added to any session for a more holistic experience.

We can discuss what would best meet your needs at the time of booking.

For most massages, you can undress to your comfort level—whether that means removing as much or as little clothing as feels right for you.

You’ll always be draped appropriately, with only the area being worked on exposed for your comfort and privacy.

You'll remain fully clothed for specific sessions like seated massage and assisted stretching.

The number of sessions varies depending on your goals. Some clients experience relief after one session, while others benefit from regular appointments to manage chronic pain or stress.

However, nervous system regulation isn’t a quick fix—it takes consistency. Establishing calm and balance in the body requires time and repeated work, especially if you're addressing deeper emotional or physical tension.

Regular sessions help support this ongoing process of reconnecting with your body and regulating your nervous system.
