Summer into Fall 2026: Medical Leave

Hello there and welcome! Thanks for being here…how have you been?

Many of you know this already but for anyone else wondering why my scheduling has been shut off, I will be out on medical leave from Wednesday, 9/9/2026 - Wednesday, 11/4/2026. Fret not! I am fine. I needed surgery and have started recovery as I write this. But y’all can’t heal from major surgery overnight and it’s time for me to take my own advice and put my body and mind before all else to make sure I heal in tip top form. At this exact moment, I’m not feeling terribly social, but am very much appreciating the book and TV recommendations, yummy snacks and well-wishes…THANK YOU!

Should you be looking to get massage therapy or bodywork while I am out, here are the folks local to me whom I love and see myself:

See you soon, be nice to one another, and wash your hands.

It’s okay to want to feel better…

At any age, in any stage of wellness, it’s okay to want to feel better. And massage therapy can help you with that:

  • improve quality of sleep,

  • reduce feelings of anxiety,

  • reduce feelings of depression,

  • increase body awareness,

  • address/compliment injury rehabilitation,

  • decrease aches and pains,

  • just plain ‘ol chill out and recoup a bit, and

  • more!

Many assume massage therapy is merely focused on the muscular system. But, long before massage therapy and bodywork affect your muscles, tendons, ligaments or fascia, they affect your nervous system. So let’s not set your nervous system on fire, eh? My goal in designing treatments is to soothe and settle your nervous system, allowing for the soft tissues of your body to melt into and accept the work…not to be on guard and fight against it. Comfort is foremost in my mind before, during, and after each session. Looking to have a session of super deep pressure? I am not your gal. It’s not the approach I choose for my work and there are folks in the area who are much better at it than me (like Michael Surabian LMT: https://everybodymt.com and Revived Athlete Recovery: https://revivedathleterecovery.com).

Ways to feel better…

Therapeutic Massage

A combination of massage therapy and bodywork modalities including Swedish relaxation, deep tissue (not deep pressure), orthopedic, Thai yoga massage and craniosacral therapy to address acute and/or chronic pain. Not sure which you need? That's okay! Each session will be adjusted for your needs at the time. 

Table Thai Yoga Massage

Based upon traditional Thai massage, this is a very movement and stretching based session. Think of it as a passive yoga session…clients wear loose and/or stretchy clothing while I gently move and press your limbs to stretch you out and energize you.

Pregnancy and Postpartum Massage

These sessions are designed specifically for the needs and comfort of those who are pregnant as well as those who have delivered within the past 3 months. Considerations and adjustments in technique allow for safe treatments from first trimester through (and beyond) delivery.

CranioSacral Therapy

A very gentle and light touch form of bodywork that releases tension in the fascia and nervous system. It allows the body to relax and self-correct as a means to address pain and discomfort. CranioSacral Therapy can be very relaxing and a good option for those who are touch averse, touch sensitive or prefer to stay clothed during their session.

Thai Foot Reflexology

Thai Foot Reflexology sessions include Thai foot massage followed by traditional Thai reflexology where work with the foot corresponds to the well-being of the entire body.

Massage Cupping

The use of silicone cups to gently add a new dimension to your massage therapy session. While most modalities press into the body, cupping adds lift to help separate and loosen muscle and fascia. This can be integrated into any session.

Session times and rates for feeling better…

All of my massage therapy and bodywork sessions costs are based upon time on the table…not on the type or style of the work. My knowledge of anatomy and massage therapy/bodywork modalities comes with me to every session, so there’s no point in me charging different rates for different types. Make sense? Yeah, I thought so, too.

 

Massage Therapy/Bodywork Rates:

  • 30 minute massage therapy/bodywork session: $70

  • 45 minute massage therapy/bodywork session: $95

  • 60 minute massage therapy/bodywork session: $120

  • 90 minute massage therapy/bodywork session: $150

  • 120 minute massage therapy/bodywork session: $180

 

Also? I run a non-tipping practice. So the cost listed above is really the cost. (Thought you were going to have to tip me? Aw, that’s so sweet! I recommend you treat yourself to a coffee or yummy baked good instead. CRUST is mere moments from my office. You should go.)

Have a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Medical Spending Account (FSA)? I am able to accept those forms of payment if your HSA/FSA account allows for massage therapy (this would be outlined as part of each client’s specific HSA/FSA arrangements). The vast majority of health insurance companies in Massachusetts do not contract with massage therapists to provide massage therapy services so I cannot accept health insurance for sessions at this time.
