New York Licensed Massage Therapist
During online booking you will fill out a confidential intake form. Questions relate solely to my profession, helping to guide my work. There are two flights of stairs. This is a good time to use the restroom/WZ. The studio is on the top floor. You must be healthy enough to carry yourself up these stairs. I will take a look at your musculoskeletal alignment and for 10 to 15 minutes we will discuss your goals, concerns and possible contraindications. This friendly conversation and health history will allow me to become more familiar with you. This information will form a recipe for the types of modalities I will use. This time does not take away from the duration of your treatment. You will be offered water and I will leave the room as you undress to your level of comfort. You will then lay yourself down on the table, covering yourself with the sheet and blanket. Before I reenter the room, I will knock to be sure that you are ready. If you are too warm then the blanket can be removed. However, the sheet will remain on your body and I will only uncover the areas I am working on. There are windows to cool and heaters to warm the room and the table has a full length heating pad. Prices are not determined by the depth of the treatment but rather by the duration. Choosing either deep pressure or light pressure, my goal for effective work is through calming your central nervous system with techniques that create Deep-Relaxation. After your treatment, rehydrating for the next 48 hours is important after any session, either light or deep.
Be sure to review the many choices of add-on services. They range from, Hot Damp Towels, Essential Oils by dõTERRA, Hot Stone Therapy, Coffee Scrub, Scalp Massage, Reflexology, Infrared Light Therapy, Castor Oil Treatment, to a full-body immersion into an Infrared Sauna Blanket.
I encourage an openness of communication and work within your level of comfort.
A 60-minute Treatment is great for targeted work. A Head-to-Toe treatment can certainly be done at this duration. However, the time spent either at areas of tension or during those long transitions is given less repetition of strokes. Please consider your hight and needs when choosing this duration. If your goal is Head-to-Toe deep-relaxation without an in-depth work on a soft-tissue disorder then 60 minutes is achievable.
✨️ I recommend a 90-minute Treatment! This duration allows time for connective tissue to be warmed up by the frictioning of my fingers and hands. And then, by the quiet concentration, my sinking in can begin. My goal is to both target areas of concern in combination with Deep-relaxation, lengthen where needed, to create more space where movements are restricted and to give you the complete awareness, from head-to-toe, that you are one complete connection of many useful parts communicating. 🌱
However, 😊 a 120 minute Treatment allows lasting attention on every area of restriction. No pain is left feeling neglected. Knots can be untangled. There will be more creative angles in how you may lay on the table thus influencing the direction of my work. My touch will be newly inspired by what's different in the way your body rests. Releasing and finding new found restrictions. Working with passive and active resistance, moving your body in and out of different positions - stuck fascia will melt into movement. You will feel the Myofascial web of connectivity from head to toe Releasing.
