Services
Therapeutic Massage
Our therapeutic massage combines multiple techniques to address specific client needs. Each session begins with a comprehensive assessment of posture, muscle tension, and range of motion. Therapists customize treatments using Swedish, deep tissue, and trigger point therapies to relieve chronic pain and improve mobility. This service benefits clients seeking personalized care for musculoskeletal issues, stress-related tension, or general wellness maintenance.
Hot Stone Massage
Hot stone massage utilizes heated basalt stones to relax tight muscles and improve circulation. Therapists place stones on key energy points and use them to massage the body, combining heat therapy with deep tissue techniques. This treatment particularly benefits clients with chronic muscle tension, circulation issues, or those seeking enhanced relaxation. The heat helps release deep-seated tension while promoting mental calmness and physical rejuvenation.
Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy gently manipulates the craniosacral system to improve central nervous system function. Therapists use light touch to release restrictions in the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This non-invasive treatment benefits clients with chronic pain, migraines, stress-related disorders, and neurological conditions. It promotes deep relaxation while supporting the body's natural healing processes through subtle energy adjustments.
Prenatal Massage
Specially designed for expectant mothers, prenatal massage addresses pregnancy-related discomforts using modified techniques. Therapists focus on relieving back pain, reducing swelling, and improving circulation while ensuring client comfort in side-lying positions. This service benefits women in their second and third trimesters by alleviating physical strain, reducing stress hormones, and promoting better sleep quality through gentle, targeted therapeutic work.
Thai Massage
Thai massage combines acupressure, assisted yoga postures, and energy line work to improve flexibility and balance energy flow. Therapists use their hands, knees, and feet to stretch and compress the body while clients remain fully clothed. This service benefits individuals seeking improved joint mobility, muscle flexibility, and energy revitalization. The treatment addresses both physical tension and energetic imbalances through traditional Eastern healing principles.

Did not go.They do sound like a good company on paper but you have to buy a package deal and right now that doesn't work for me.

Emily is amazing! She definitely knows what she is doing and focuses on areas that need more help. The environment and atmosphere is relaxing right when you walk in to Body Wisdom. I absolutely love all of the purple as well💜 I will be returning and returning.

Amanda was amazing. She is very consistant with pressure for the swedish massage. Rythmic and what was very wonderful is she is quiet. Being a relaxation massage she only engaged when spoken to and to me this is very important and relaxing. The room was wonderfully warm and the music was perfect and reflective. I have had many massages and I was so impressed I booked the next four massages. The reception is very welcoming and the $10 price reduction benefit of booking same day for the next massage is very generous.
