What makes you different from other massage therapists in my area?There are so many excellent massage therapists in the Decatur area, and it's important to find one that's a good fit for you. I work with a pretty wide variety of people, each with their own needs and expectations. I have found that people who seem to enjoy and benefit the most from my style of massage are people who have conditions that cause chronic pain, inflammation, or swelling; people who get frequent headaches (tension or sinus-related); people who are anxious or exhausted and want a safe space to experience deep rest; and people who are seeking overall wellness and greater body awareness. I incorporate different techniques and within a single session, pressure can range from firm or deep trigger point work, to very subtle, depending on what you need and want. My work is not necessarily the best fit for a highly competitive or elite athlete, or someone who wants extremely deep pressure or a strictly "clinical" session. There are a number of outstanding therapists who provide massage better suited to those needs.

Are you open on the weekends?I am open on Saturdays from 10am-3pm. I'm closed on Sundays and Mondays. Please note, Saturday appointments are in high demand and are sometimes booked out two months in advance. I recommend booking out several future appointments at a time if you like to come in regularly and know you need a Saturday time.
-
How do I book a session?The easiest way to book a session is to scroll to the top of this page, and click the green button that says "Schedule an Appointment". You are welcome to call or email me to schedule an appointment as well, but I do not have continuous access to my phone and email, so I cannot guarantee I will be able to get back in touch with you before someone books online and snatches up the spot you want.
-
Do you take walk-ins?No, sessions are by appointment only.
-
How/when do I pay for my session?I accept all major credit cards, cash, and checks. Payment takes place after the massage, unless you have a pre-purchased gift card or package. When booking online, I ask for credit card information to hold the reservation. This card is not charged prior to your session, and you don't have to use this card to pay for your session.
-
Am I supposed to tip?Tipping is always optional. While tips are graciously accepted, they are never expected.
-
How do I buy a gift certificate?You can find gift certificates in my online booking system by following this link: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/catalog.php?owner=16853245&category=Gift+Certificates
-
What is your cancellation policy?If an appointment is cancelled with less than 12 hours' notice, or if you do not show up for your scheduled appointment, a fee of $50 is charged. Your appointment time is reserved exclusively for you, and it is a significant chunk of time. Cancelling early allows me to fill your spot with someone on my waitlist if you need to cancel. Thank you for respecting my time and my work.
-
Can you come give massages at my office/event?No, at this time I am not offering any event or mobile massage services.
-
Why do you ask questions about my health history?When giving a massage, certain things are helpful for me to know, such as past surgeries and health conditions, so that I can give you a good massage that addresses your needs without causing harm. You are not required to answer anything I ask. All health and personal information that you provide is kept confidential.
