The Well for Women offers skilled massage therapy for all women across the life cycle, from the best massages for lower back pain in busy workers through to mom-to-be massages and beyond. We have special expertise in both prenatal and postnatal massage for the childbearing year. We've also been delighted to see that our services are well-received by the over-50 set.

We offer massage memberships so that you can easily make wellbeing a regular part of your life, in whatever way works best for you. We truly believe that health and wellness massages can work wonders when it comes to flexibility, mobility - and even digestive health. As one of the only New Haven massage sanctuaries that offer this range of services, we have been honored to help so many women throughout their journeys.
Services
Our team of New Haven massage therapists are thrilled to welcome you to the Well for Women, in CT! We offer everything from relaxing Swedish massage to deep tissue, and we specialize in prenatal body massages and postpartum massage therapy. Pregnant now or never pregnant in your life, we always put women first.
You may have heard of cupping, but have you heard of the amazing benefits Gua Sha massage therapy has on overall health and wellness? Using a stainless-steel tool or traditional ceramic soup spoon, our experienced and licensed massage therapists lightly scrape the surface of the skin to release trapped circulation in the fascia and muscles.
Manual lymphatic drainage is a gentle massage technique specifically focused on supporting the functions of the lymphatic system and at the same time has a powerful effect on the nervous system. The technique can be used as a whole-body treatment or localized to a particular area. We use gentle, repetitive compression strokes in a specific routine designed to best support the natural process of your lymphatic system.
All Memberships are a 3-month commitment. You may cancel any time with 14 days' written notice. Monthly massage membership pricing not valid for sessions with Julie (the owner). You are allowed to roll over one month of massage as a gift; otherwise, memberships may not be shared and are non-transferable.

Best massage I’ve had in months. Laura C. has an amazing spider sense for all of the tension points and did an amazing job of breaking down those muscular knots.

Thank you, Eboni, for an amazing massage! I have been working remotely since the pandemic and sit for hours on end in front of a monitor. I appreciate the attention to the areas to my shoulders, neck, arms, hands and my lower back and hips. I must say I have been feeling so much better. I look forward to my next appointment.
The Well for Women has a calm and welcoming vibe from the moment you walk through the door and are greeted by the receptionist. The space evokes the same vibe and is beautiful!

The Well for Woman was a wonderful experience. Booking was easy and the staff on the phone were very friendly and professional. They are centrally located with ample parking and a beautiful and clean facility. You feel relaxed as soon as you walk in. My prenatal massage with Laura was fantastic. I scheduled a second soon after. Prices are in line with market prices- you get an excellent massage for the same price as most other places. I would definitely recommend this business to anyone looking for a massage.

Julie was absolutely patient; she listened to all my needs and responded in kind. She tailored my massage experience specifically for my chronic medical condition. She was communicative and made me feel safe and comfortable. Check in and scheduling was easy. Worth every penny and more!

I cannot recommend The Well for Women enough. From beginning to end, it was a really great experience for a prenatal massage. Booking and check in were easy. I appreciated the covid protocols and measures, and felt very safe and well taken care of on that front. Also, a really beautiful lobby and I hope to one day go to the events that I’m sure will be there in a post-covid world.
I had an incredible prenatal massage with Susan. She was very attentive to my problem areas which we discussed at length beforehand and throughout my massage. I felt very well appointed with pillows and different supports
