What kind of pressure can I expect to receive?

I offer light to deep pressures, generally settling on a medium to medium-deep pressure. I like to use a scale from 1 (my hands resting on you skin) to 10 (you feel pain to the point of injury), with 5 being a nice gentle medium pressure. For relaxation work, I ask you to guide me to your 4-6 range, and for therapeutic work, I’ll ask for your 6-8 range. 

What modalities do you use the most?

My sessions usually use a combination of deep tissue, myofascial release, Swedish, and trigger point therapy. I aim to make therapeutic work feel relaxing and work with slow, intentional movements to tap into the parasympathetic nervous system. I love to add reiki/energywork too, when requested. 

 

What got you into bodywork?

I always wanted to be a massage therapist and used to give my mom and sister massages as a little kid. After going to college and graduating with a degree in marketing, I tried several different desk-based careers (receptionist, technical writer) and service industry positions, only to find myself burned out and uninspired by the work. In 2022, I attended a month-long yoga teacher training where I learned basic anatomy that inspired me to pursue my childhood dreams, and by the end of the month, I’d found my massage therapy schools. Best decision I have made to date. 

 

What other elements of your life do you bring to your bodywork?

I am deeply interested in holistic health and fitness and love to bring my knowledge as a yoga teacher and energy worker into my massage practice. I lead guided breathing to help the body, mind, and nervous system settle to allow our work together to go even deeper, and intentionally set the mood so we drift into flow state together. I often give clients stretches to do in between sessions and I am a huge fan of foam rolling and offer tips to practice at home. I am also trans masc and love working with gender nonconforming and queer clients.

You are one of 8,175,271,783 billion people. You are made up of over 600 muscles, 200 bones, and 350 joints. You are one of a kind. And you deserve bodywork as unique as you are. - Mason
