Melissa is by far, one of the best massage therapists that I’ve been to.  Her room is calm and inviting.  Her technique is amazing.  She is one of the best!

Excellent service..k8nd good listener for preferences  and comfort...amazing massage

I absolutely loved today’s massage experience. Melissa is through prior to starting the appointment and listens to what my body needs.    I am so grateful for her and her willingness to massage a post cancer patient.  

My experience with Melissa is always amazing.  She does a great job making sure you are comfortable and relaxed.  At the end of my massage I wish I would’ve booked it longer!

I was so relaxed throughout the massage and left feeling like I’d just been on a vacation.  It was an excellent hour and I’m so glad I was able to get in!  Thank you.

Whether you are currently undergoing cancer treatment, or have been cancer-free for many years, there are still certain adjustments that may need to be made during a massage to ensure your comfort and safety.

Melissa has advanced training in oncology and post-oncology massage, and has the knowledge to provide a safe massage. A thorough health history will be taken and the massage will be tailored to your specific needs. Your initial appointment includes a free 30 minute consultation. Subsequent appointments will not include the consultation unless requested. (For subsequent appointments feel free to book the Ultimate Relaxation Massage.)

Two parallel bars attached to the ceiling are used for balance and support while gliding and compression techniques are applied with clean, soft feet. While Ashiatsu provides the same benefits as other types of massages, it also allows your therapist to apply deep, even pressure without the pain normally associated with deep tissue massage. You can choose to have a full body Ashiatsu massage, or just have Ashiatsu on certain areas, and “regular” therapeutic or relaxation massage used on other areas of the body. 

With a 30 minute massage you’ll choose one or two areas of the body to have massaged.
