Services
Therapeutic Swedish Massage
Our Therapeutic Swedish Massage combines classic techniques with modern wellness principles to promote relaxation and improve circulation. This service uses long, flowing strokes and targeted pressure to reduce muscle tension while enhancing overall well-being. Ideal for stress relief and maintaining musculoskeletal health, our therapists adapt each session to individual client needs through personalized pressure adjustments and focus areas.
Deep Tissue Myofascial
Deep Tissue Myofascial therapy addresses chronic pain and muscle restrictions through focused, deeper pressure techniques. Our certified therapists target connective tissue and muscle layers to release adhesions and improve mobility. This service benefits individuals with persistent muscle tension or specific rehabilitation needs, using slow strokes and sustained pressure to achieve lasting structural improvements.
Hot Stone Massage
Hot Stone Massage utilizes heated basalt stones to deliver penetrating warmth that relaxes tight muscles and soothes the nervous system. The combination of temperature therapy and massage enhances circulation while promoting deep relaxation. Our therapists strategically place stones on energy points and use them as tools for gliding strokes, creating a unique sensory experience that addresses both physical and emotional wellness.
Prenatal Massage
Specially designed for expectant mothers, our Prenatal Massage addresses the unique physical demands of pregnancy through safe, effective techniques. Certified therapists use specialized positioning with prenatal tables to accommodate changing body needs while relieving common discomforts like back pain and swelling. This service supports maternal wellness through targeted muscle relaxation and stress reduction throughout all trimesters.
Reiki Healing
Reiki sessions channel universal life force energy to promote natural healing and stress reduction. Our certified Reiki Master uses gentle hand placements to balance energy flow and support emotional well-being. This non-invasive service complements traditional therapies by addressing energetic imbalances, with clients often reporting deep relaxation and renewed vitality following sessions that work holistically on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels.

I had a great massage from Nicole Shea back in December 2021 and was hoping to have another one soon. Since I'm immunocompromised, I asked her if she had yet to receive her COVID booster, and she said she is "allergic to vaccines." (FYI: it is extremely rare for someone to be allergic to vaccines in general.) If I had known back in December that she was not vaccinated, I would not have followed through with the massage (my bad - not asking about her vaccination status then.) Fortunately, I escaped infection, but others might not have been as fortunate.
And who knows how many other vulnerable people are at risk. The least she could do is be transparent in her bio/profile about her (non) vaccination status. As much as I benefited from the massage back in December, based on her deliberate deception, I would give her zero stars, if only Google would allow for such a rating.

I have been a client of Wellness Massage for many years. This is, hands down, the best place to begin taking care of your body. You don't realize how much stress and toxicity builds up until you have a massage to release them. Start making yourself a priority by making an appointment. You won't regret doing so.
