What Makes a Massage with Me Special?
When it comes to massage therapy, the experience should be more than just relaxing—it should be transformative. At Sol Massage, I combine a variety of techniques and modalities to address your body’s unique needs, helping you feel deeply connected, aligned, and refreshed. My holistic approach is rooted in years of training and a passion for supporting wellness from multiple perspectives.
Here’s how I craft each session to offer you a truly special experience:
✨ Myofascial Release (MFR): Aligning Your Body
I practice the John F. Barnes style of Myofascial Release (MFR), a gentle yet powerful technique that focuses on a whole-body approach to healing. Using sustained holds of 3-7 minutes, this method helps release tension in the fascia—the connective tissue surrounding muscles and organs. This technique doesn’t just address symptoms but works to resolve underlying patterns of tension and misalignment. Many clients describe it as a profound reset, leaving them feeling lighter, more balanced, and in tune with their bodies.
🐢 Slow, Focused Massage: Attentive and Personalized
Every massage I provide is deliberate and intuitive. By moving intentionally, I tune into your body to identify areas that need extra care.
I blend techniques from:
Swedish Massage: For relaxation and circulation.
Deep Tissue Massage: To release chronic tension.
Neuromuscular Therapy: To target specific problem areas.
Reflexology: To address tension through points on the feet and hands.
This integrative approach ensures that every session is customized to your needs, whether you're seeking relief from pain, stress, or simply need a moment of peace.
🌿 Reiki: A Japanese Energy Healing Technique
Reiki, originating in Japan, is a gentle energy healing method that works to balance the body's energy flow and release emotional and energetic blockages. Many of us store stress and emotions in our bodies, which can manifest as physical tension. By addressing these on an energetic level, Reiki enhances relaxation, reduces muscle tightness, and provides a sense of deep emotional release and calm.
💆♀️ Silicone Cupping: Amplifying Circulation and Relief
Cupping therapy uses gentle suction to decompress tight areas, promoting blood flow and reducing inflammation. It’s the perfect complement to a massage, enhancing the session's overall benefits and providing lasting relief.
The Holistic Difference
When you come to me for a massage, you’re not just getting a treatment—you’re getting a deeply personal, therapeutic experience. I approach every issue from multiple perspectives:

This multi-faceted approach allows me to address not just your symptoms, but the root causes of tension and discomfort.
