Relaxation massage focuses on calming the nervous system, reducing everyday stress, and promoting overall well-being. Therapeutic massage uses targeted techniques to address muscle tension, restricted movement, and specific areas of discomfort.
Both approaches can be incorporated into your session based on your individual needs.

Yes! Marianne provides customized massage therapy to help manage muscle tension, persistent discomfort, and restricted movement. Treatment is adjusted to your individual needs and may complement care from your healthcare provider.

We offer specialized lymphatic drainage and post-procedure massage techniques that may help manage swelling and support comfort during recovery.
For recent surgeries or medical procedures, your healthcare provider's clearance may be required before treatment. Techniques are adjusted to your healing stage and any medical restrictions.

Can massage help with TMJ discomfort?
TMJ-focused massage targets tension in the jaw, face, neck, and surrounding muscles. These gentle techniques may help reduce muscle tightness associated with jaw clenching, grinding, and related discomfort.
-
Your appointment begins with a brief conversation about your health history, concerns, and treatment goals. Marianne will explain the session, answer your questions, and help you feel comfortable.
Your massage is tailored to your preferences, and you're always encouraged to communicate about pressure, positioning, or any discomfort.

Not at all. Your comfort and privacy are our priorities. You may undress to your personal comfort level, and professional draping techniques are used throughout the session. Only the area being treated will be uncovered.
