Services & Rates
Sliding scale
I have eliminated tipping in favor of the sliding scale. This ensures a livable wage for the practitioner, and accessible pricing for the client.
This is a handy diagram that will help you understand where you are on the sliding scale.

Please note there is a $50 deposit to hold an appointment, paid through zelle/venmo.
I understand that scheduling mishaps happen. This deposit is to ensure my time is respected and compensated. I am a sole proprietor, when someone cancels it's quite challenging to find a new client within 48 hrs. It also affects how other practitioners I share the space with can schedule clients.
This deposit is in place of a cancellation fee. If you choose to reschedule within 2 weeks of the cancellation you can use the deposit towards that session.
If you cancel within 24 hrs of your appointment this deposit is forfeited.
Swedish Massage
Massage includes CBD infused coconut oil
Swedish Massage focuses on relaxing and calming the nervous system. Long gliding strokes smooth muscles and increase circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, and greater flexibility.
Restorative Deep Tissue
Massage includes CBD infused coconut oil
Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. It is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to ensure your comfort. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the focused deep tissue work during the session.
Myofascial Release
Massage includes CBD infused coconut oil.
Myofascial release is a form of soft tissue therapy intended to eliminate pain, increase range of motion, and re-balance the entire body. It does this by using massage techniques to stretch the fascia and release the bonds that exist between the fascia, muscles and bones. Fascia is the connective tissue that connects and covers all muscles, organs, and skeletal structures of the body. Direct myofascial release is sometimes known as deep tissue work. Indirect release applies light pressure and gently stretches the fascia; this allows for increased blood circulation and relief from pain.
Cranio-Sacral
Cranio Sacral therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on massaging technique. It uses a light touch to release tension around your body’s connective tissue network called the fascia. CST promotes pain relief from headaches, neck pain and the side effects of cancer treatment.
One of the tenants of CST is that the body has capacity to heal itself. When there are blockages to the flow of cerebral-spinal fluid around the spinal cord, muscles tighten, fascia restricts movement, the pain-spasm-pain cycle ensues.
Using very gentle holds CST unwinds these myofascial patterns and creates more space in the body for the spinal cord to breathe, releasing restriction in the diaphragm, shoulders, neck, back and legs. You will feel taller and have a greater sense of peace and sometimes a greater capacity for sensation, people have reported clearer thought processes, observed more vivid colors and intense sense of smell and taste.
I usually incorporate some CST into all my sessions, however if you would like a full CST session, head to toe, please request that when we talk about how we are structuring your session.
Acupressure/ Tui Na/ Cupping /Gua sha
Massage includes CBD infused coconut oil.
Acupressure is based on the same principles of Acupuncture, however instead of needles, varying pressure is used along the Meridians and at specific points.
An excellent modality for Joint mobilization and injury rehab.
I also offer Cupping therapy with silicone cups which is very effective in releasing long standing adhesions and muscle knots.
Cupping can also be used for lymph work and to reduce swelling and edema.
Gua sha is a traditional technique that involves using a smooth-edged tool to scrape the skin, improving circulation, and promoting healing by breaking up stagnant energy (qi).
