Description: 47 reasons why you should call me today for massage therapy:
1. I provide excellent massage therapy.
I have over 6 1/2 years of licensed massage therapy experience.
I provide Swedish massage in firm to deep pressures.
I’m a great communicator. I listen to what YOUR needs are.
My rates for massage are very affordable - just $25 per half hour!
Session length is always up to you, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minute sessions.
I am conveniently located in the professional offices of the 640 North Building, just off of exit 6, Old Broadway, just north of Louie’s Restaurant. Address is: 2606 Greenway Drive, Knoxville, TN 37918.
You can speak to me directly before your appointment - no receptionist just making appointments here. I am happy to discuss any questions you may have, and help determine if massage therapy and my practice are right for you.
I am open Monday thru Friday, 9am to 5pm. Other times may be available - call for details.
No “fast-food” massage here! Your session time does not begin until my hands begin your massage.
My policy is “Nobody gets shorted on my table.” You will receive your full massage time every time.
You don’t pay for “chit-chat time” or the time before or after your massage either. (Try finding that at other therapist’s offices and spas - where rushing you in and out is the norm.) I have allowed ample time for all aspects of your appointment.
I’m fully licensed and legal, in compliance with all laws and standards of the State of Tennessee Massage Licensure Board.
I’m also fully insured and a professional member of the AMTA, American Massage Therapists Association.
I’m nationally certified as well, through the NCBTMB, National Certification Board of Therapeutic Massage and Bodyworkers.
I’ve received an outstanding education from Ashmead College of Massage Therapy.
I did very well - graduating at the top of my class with a 4.0 GPA.
I have taken additional training, to continue to add to my skills, increase my knowledge, and comply with massage licensing renewal requirements.
I truly enjoy what I do. I find it very rewarding to see each person who has come to see me for massage therapy, feeling much better at the conclusion of their appointment, than when they first arrived.
I am physically strong. I have not only the skill and knowledge, but also the physical strength and endurance to provide great massage therapy sessions.
I care about my customers. I care about how each person who comes to see me feels, and what I can do to help each person feel their best. I work with you to develop a plan to help you meet your objectives, whether it’s healing of injuries, increasing flexibility and range of motion, loosening muscle tension patterns from overuse or stress, reduction of pain, improving muscle function, or simply relaxing.
Each session is custom designed for you, and with you. I am a firm believer that it is YOUR time on the massage table. I encourage your input, as we discuss how you would like your massage session to be spent. You and I will discuss if you have any special concerns, or areas that require additional time and focus. Do you have areas that are injured or I should be more careful with? No problem. No special requests? That’s fine too. I’m glad to provide a plan.
I don’t overbook. Why is that important? Do you want to be the eighth, (or ninth, or tenth?) appointment in your therapist’s day? Neither do I, so I won’t do that to you. I take care of myself, and schedule a limited number of appointments each day so that your massage is high quality, no matter which appointment time you choose.
I don’t pressure you to make your next appointment at the conclusion of your session. Of course you are welcome to, if you like. I believe that you and your body know when you’re ready for your next appointment, not me and my appointment book. Length of time between appointments varies for everybody, and even for the same body, depending on stress, healing, activities, and many other factors. You are welcome to either book another session, or call me whenever you feel you’re ready to come in again - it’s always up to you!
I use a very light holly oil in my massage sessions. It has several benefits. It is light, doesn’t leave your skin feeling goopy, does not go rancid, does not trigger allergic reactions like nut oils can, and washes cleanly out of sheets and clothing. It provides a glide on the surface of the skin, perfect for massage.
Do you have a favorite lotion? Bring it in! I’ll be happy to use it on you for your massage.
I also offer heated stone massage. Perfect for providing great relaxation with therapeutic benefits. I use the warmth of the stones to help melt and loosen tight muscle tissues. Lightly oiled, I use the stones as tools throughout the larger muscle groups in the body. Have the best of both! Add a mini-stone treatment to regular Swedish massage for just $5! Full body heated stone massage is $70 per hour.
I also do pregnancy massage. Great for helping
