Integrative Massage

Service Description

My Approach Integrative Massage honors the understanding that your body holds not just physical tension, but layers of experience—emotional patterns, energetic blocks, and nervous system responses. Rather than following a predetermined protocol, this work responds fluidly to what emerges during our session together. I draw from deep tissue and neuromuscular techniques when your muscles call for structural work, incorporate gentle craniosacral holds when your nervous system needs profound quieting, utilize Phenomenal Touch principles for trauma-informed bodywork, and apply energetic awareness when deeper healing wants to occur. This creates a massage experience that addresses your whole being through skilled therapeutic touch. Perfect for You If: • You want massage therapy that goes beyond physical symptoms to address root causes • You're drawn to bodywork that honors both structural work and subtle nervous system regulation • You appreciate practitioners who can fluidly adapt their approach to your needs • You're seeking massage that integrates multiple therapeutic modalities seamlessly • You want to experience the full scope of my clinical training and healing expertise • You're ready for bodywork that works with both muscular tension and craniosacral rhythms What to Expect: Each session begins with a check-in to understand what's present for you physically and emotionally. I listen not just to your words but to what your body is communicating through posture, breath, and subtle rhythms. The bodywork flows between different approaches as your body guides the session. You might experience deep tissue work that transitions into gentle craniosacral holds at your head and sacrum, or structural massage that incorporates the subtle listening skills of Biodynamic Craniosacral work. I hold space for whatever arises—whether that's muscular release, nervous system regulation, or deep stillness. Sessions often conclude with grounding practices and integration support to help you maintain the shifts that occurred during our time together. This work frequently creates lasting changes that extend beyond the massage table into your daily life.
