Services
Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.
The moment your tired toes submerge into the hot water, infused with only the highest quality salts, organic herbs, flowers, and essential oils.you will certainly be glad you did! (For those of you who are scent sensitive, soaks are available with little to no scent as well.) While sipping on some tea, with a heated neck wrap, your body begins to relax with a salt or brown sugar scrub.
I look forward to my monthly massage with Nancy and have been a client of hers for more than 12 years. She's a big part of keeping my inner well being and world in balance. When I go to see her, I know I'm in for a truly relaxing experience every time. I highly recommend her as a massage therapist to keep your world in balance.
When you first arrive, feel free to ask any questions you may have, and share any health concerns or limitations that are relevant to your treatment. You will be given complete privacy of the room to make yourself comfortable on the massage table. During the session, many people close their eyes and relax.

I went to see Nancy when she reopened with COVID guidelines. Nancy is taking all the necessary precautions to make her clients feel safe and comfortable during these unprecedented times. I was in desperate need of a massage, and it was better than I remembered pre-COVID! If you’re comfortable, I definitely recommend going to see Nancy to relieve some of the built up stress we’ve all felt these past couple of months.

The Sanctuary Massage Studio maintains a cleanly and relaxing environment. Nancy has gone above and beyond to make sure her clients are protected and safe when they enter the studio. Her massages are simply the best! She really listens to where you’d like to focus on and the amount of pressure that’s most comfortable to you. I’ve recommended The Sanctuary Massage Studio to many and I will continue to do so!

Nancy came recommended by a colleague and I am so glad I followed up on the recommendation! Nancy was very attentive to detail, and paid close attention to what my needs were so that I could have the most pleasant experience! What a cute, warm, welcoming studio she has as well! I will be back for sure!

This place is great! Nancy is so talented. I have been getting massage therapy for years and she is the first therapist that I do not have to "recover' from for the next two days. She is very thorough and gentle. A very classy office as well. The table is very comfortable, which I can't say is always the case in many studios.

I look forward to my monthly massage with Nancy and have been a client of hers for 12+ years now. Not only has she become a friend, she's a big part of keeping my inner well being and my world in balance. When I go to see her, I know I'm in for a truly relaxing experience every time. There's always a toasty massage table ready and waiting when it's cool out -- like a warm hug. This is just one aspect of the client experience she provides. I highly recommend her as a massage therapist to keep your world in balance. I'm excited for her new studio space! 🙏💜🌟
