Amazing massage! Alicia found the perfect balance between deep tissue and relaxation, where I left feeling looser and so relaxed! I have occasional deep hip pain and she worked on spots that other massage therapists have never found. 10/10 recommend!

I am not a massage/spa kinda gal, but oh my gosh have I been restored! Alicia was so attentive to my needs and even made personalized recommendations based on my favorite ways to relax ❤ She made my whole day and I cant wait to make massages with her my new way to recover and relax from my physically demanding workload 🥰

Alicia was amazing! She is very knowledgeable in her practice and each individual muscle. I just got off working my three 12 hr shifts in a row and my lower back isn’t throbbing like it usually does! I will most definitely be going back to see her, she is very knowledgeable about trigger point release therapy and focusing in on which muscles are the most over used and tight.

Questions & Answers

I’m never sure about gratuities. How much should I tip?

Gratuity is an act of gratitude, it is never a requirement to tip. If you are a gracious receiver of an awesome massage 15-20% is a standard percentage. The ultimate gratuity is not gratuity, but re-booking the next massage. Referrals are also a great way to extend your gratitude if you enjoyed your session - word of mouth, leave a review on google, yelp, Facebook & Instagram.

Is there such a thing as too much pressure, or should I take as much as I can stand?

Yes. A therapeutic massage can at times be intense, but, it should never be painful. A painful massage is counterproductive.

I’m a bit uncomfortable taking everything off when I go for massage. Do I have to be completely naked to receive massage?

Your therapist strives to strike a balance between engaging with you as the complex individual you are, as well as seeing your body and all its unique qualities from a clinical perspective. Our work is about the careful application of techniques to your muscles, ligaments, and connective tissue as a means to enhance your whole being—not to judge you.

Massage has to hurt to do any good, right?

Massage does not have to hurt to help. You can gain therapeutic benefits from a relaxing massage, which doesn’t hurt a bit, or you can seek out more aggressive treatment options, which can cause some discomfort. Trigger point therapy and friction are examples of techniques that are briefly uncomfortable, but very helpful for many conditions. If you don’t want heavy pressure, say so. Massage therapists want to help you. If you’re wincing under the pressure and tightening up, that will work against the goals of massage, which is to invite your body to relax, reduce pain, increase well-being, and have long, supple muscles. Massage therapists aren’t in the torture business. Let your therapist know what feels good and what doesn’t. Recognize that your needs and pain threshold might change with each visit.

Is it rude to fall asleep during a massage?

Although there haven't been any formal surveys done on sleeping during massages, ask any massage therapist, and they'll tell you that it's a compliment to have a customer fall asleep. It means that you trust your massage therapist and feel comfortable.
