Your partner in healing.
Susan brings a deep knowledge and experience of oncology massage, pre- and peri-natal massage, elder care massage and orthopedic massage. You bring your lifelong, first-hand experience of living in your body, your current circumstance, and a desire to be heard and healed. Susan listens and works with your own body knowledge. She loves your feedback on the table, and attends to details. Together you set an intention for the session, and then it’s time for you to experience an excellent massage. Susan greets you in a quietly elegant space designed to support your healing. The experience from door to table is comfortable, personal, and professional. After learning what brought you, Susan works with you on a plan for your course of treatment or individual session. With Susan, you can just rest, and your first hand knowledge is put to good use. Susan will treat you like an honored guest. After the session, she may share findings during the massage, how to prolong the benefits of the massage, and your ongoing plan of care. |
