Who can benefit from massage therapy? 
             Just about everyone!

Therapeutic Massage, dating back to... WAY  BACK*, offers safe, healing touch. Athletes and desk jockeys alike can benefit from a session with a skilled massage therapist.

  • Work out muscular tension to maintain (or regain) range of motion and optimal functioning
  • Reduce stress to live your life more comfortably
  • Increase body awareness to catch problems before they become debilitating 

 

 
For people living with cancer, massage therapy can help ease pain, reduce anxiety and promote relaxation.  It also offers non-invasive, non-judgmental, compassionate touch at a time when that can be lacking.
 
 
 
 
First Massage?  First time clients are welcome and encouraged to ask questions. 

About the Therapist
 
 
A graduate of The Muscular Therapy Institute in Cambridge, MA, Laurie has been working as a massage therapist since 1997.  Nationally Certified and licensed in Cambridge, Laurie works with a variety of populations including athletes and people living with cancer. 
 
 
Each massage is tailored to the individual client's needs:  pressure or depth, session duration, positioning, and speed of massage movements are taken into account when deciding how to work safely and effectively.

*WAY BACK:  Eastern cultures have a history of body work focusing on the flow of Chi, or energy, through the meridians of the body.  Acupressure and Shiatsu are examples.  Roman society had its spas, Europeans "take the cure", and we now have our day spas!
