  • Sculptural Face Lifting

    A relaxing yet stimulating treatment of the face, neck and décolletage aiming to decrease face tension, increase blood flow, lymphatic drainage and improve overall tissue health. SFL helps create awareness of how emotions contribute to stress and changes in our appearance. The intra-oral component benefits relaxation, tense mimic muscles, and jaw tension contributing to headaches.

  • Therapeutic Massage

    A therapeutic massage assists function and movement and alleviates pain using hands-on techniques, assessment and homecare to achieve specific health goals. Modalities include Swedish massage, stretching, deeper therapeutic techniques, assisting instruments and more to manipulate muscles, connective tissues, tendons and ligaments.

  • Relaxation Massage

    A relaxation massage has similar therapeutic goals to a traditional massage but also focuses on helping you reach a state where you can breathe deeply, reconnect with your body, and unwind from stressful thoughts. This technique involves longer and slower massage strokes, sometimes including touch to the hands, feet, scalp and face.

Questions & Answers


  • Can you treat me if I have mobility issues?

    Yes, I provide massage therapy if you have mobility issues. However, it's essential to consider a few factors before booking a session:

    1. You must be able to get on and off the massage table independently or with minimal assistance.
    2. You should have the ability to turn over on the table if necessary, or be comfortable with getting off and back onto the table for re-positioning during the session.
  • Do I have to have a post-op massage after liposuction?

    While post-operative massage after liposuction isn't mandatory, it can be a valuable asset in your recovery journey. Your body's lymphatic system is designed to manage healing and inflammation.

    Post-op massage will support your body throughout the stages of healing, ensuring that your lymphatic system functions optimally. While your body possesses innate healing abilities, post-op massages offer personalized assistance, potentially enhancing your recovery process and leading to optimal outcomes.

  • Can I bring my dog with me?

    To maintain hygiene standards, I kindly ask that you refrain from bringing furry companions to your appointment. If you have a service animal, please notify me in advance so we can discuss any necessary accommodations.

  • What is intra-oral massage?

    An intraoral massage involves gently manipulating muscles and tissues inside the mouth, including the cheeks and lower jaw. This technique is particularly beneficial for addressing tension and pain associated with headaches, teeth grinding, and individuals wearing braces.

    During a SFL treatment, I integrate intraoral massage by lifting the neck tissue intra-orally and focusing on kneading and manipulating facial muscles, lines, and connective tissue. To ensure hygiene and safety, I wear vinyl gloves throughout the procedure. Typically, the intraoral component of the massage lasts for 15 to 20 minutes, offering targeted relief and enhancing the overall effectiveness of the treatment.

  • Can a massage increase inflammation in the body?

    After a massage, you might notice a temporary increase in inflammation in your body. Don't worry, it's part of the healing process! To learn more on this topic, please see my article "Wait, Why Does Massage Increase Inflammation?".

  • What treatments can I book for a mobile massage?

    I offer the following treatments for my mobile massage service:
