Do you sell gift cards?

No—I am no longer selling gift certificates at this time. I do accept prepaid gift cards from Visa, American Express, and other major issuers.

 

 

 

Is massage therapy covered by insurance?

Therapeutic Massage performed by a Licensed Massage & Bodywork Therapist may be covered under many extended health insurance plans. However, I do not bill insurance directly. Payment is due at the time of service, and I’m happy to provide an itemized receipt for you to submit to your provider.

Please note: It is your responsibility to verify your coverage. Many insurers require a physician’s letter of medical necessity for massage therapy to qualify.

 

 

 

What forms of payment do you accept?

I accept cash, debit, Visa, MasterCard, and American Express.

HSA and FSA cards are also welcome—please confirm with your provider whether massage therapy is eligible.

 

 

 

Why do you require a credit card to book?

A valid credit card is required to reserve your session. A deposit is collected at the time of booking and applied toward your service.

Because appointment times are reserved exclusively for each client, deposits are non-refundable for cancellations made within two weeks of the scheduled appointment. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice, as well as missed appointments, are subject to an additional cancellation fee.

Your payment information is securely processed through a certified third-party payment system, and these policies help ensure appointment availability for all clients seeking care.

 

 

Is your location ADA accessible?

Yes. My office is located on the main level with no stairs, and there is accessible parking available.

 

 

 

Do I need to undress for my session?

It depends on the service. For Coaching, Energy Work, and Foot Reflexology, no undressing is required.

For massage therapy, disrobe to your comfort level. You’ll be fully draped with a sheet and blanket at all times, with only the area being worked on exposed. I strictly follow all professional draping standards to ensure your comfort and privacy.

 

 

 

What kind of oil or lotion do you use?

I use organic, fractionated (liquid) coconut oil and an unscented, hypoallergenic massage lotion—free of parabens and propylene glycol.

 

 

 

Do you offer Prenatal Massage?

At this time, I do not offer prenatal massage. However, Energy Therapy and Foot Reflexology are both gentle and beneficial options for expecting mothers.

 

 

 

Do you offer Deep Tissue Massage?

Yes—with a caveat. True Deep Tissue work isn’t about brute pressure. It’s a precise, patient technique that targets deeper muscle layers by working with the body, not against it.

As a clinically trained Orthopedic Massage Therapist, this is one of my specialties. If you’re seeking mindful depth, you’re in the right place. If you’re after forceful pressure for its own sake, we may not be the best fit.

 

 

 

Do you work with cancer patients?

Absolutely. I am certified in Oncology Massage and have experience supporting those in all stages of cancer treatment. I also offer scar tissue therapy for post-surgical healing.

For added comfort, my massage table includes breast recesses to ease pressure when lying face-down.

If you’re undergoing chemotherapy or radiation, it’s best to wait at least 24 hours post-treatment before your session.

 

 

 

Should I tip?

Gratuity is never expected—but always appreciated if you feel moved to give.

 

 

 

What if I’m sick?

If you have a fever, vomiting, diarrhea, a known contagious illness, or are otherwise too unwell to comfortably receive treatment, please reschedule your appointment.

If you are experiencing mild symptoms such as seasonal allergies, lingering congestion, a mild cough, or are recovering from a recent illness, your appointment may still be appropriate. Many therapeutic modalities can support relaxation, circulation, and the body's natural healing processes. If you're unsure whether you should keep your appointment, please reach out before canceling.

Please note that appointments canceled within two weeks of the scheduled date forfeit the deposit. Appointments canceled with less than 24 hours' notice are subject to an additional cancellation fee. If you are unable to attend, you are welcome to send someone in your place to use the appointment time and avoid any fees—just let me know in advance.

​

 

Do you accept walk-ins?

No, all sessions are by appointment only. You can schedule your visit right here on the website.

 

 

 

I’m self-conscious about [fill in the blank]…

You’re not alone—and you’re safe here.

I’ve been doing this for 19+ years. I’ve seen it all. You’re beautiful. Take a deep breath. You’re exactly where you’re meant to be.
