Discuss with the therapist to design a custom massage for you to better meet all your needs. The following are a breakdown of the styles of massage utilized. Let your therapist know what appeals to you to create the perfect therapeutic experience. Long flowing strokes make this a relaxing treat. The five strokes of Swedish massage are the foundation in which all massage is built on: Effleurage, Petrissage, Friction, Vibration, and Tapotement.

If this is your first massage experience, please let your therapist know. After the consultation, the therapist will leave the room and ask that you undress to your comfort level. Usually all clothes are taken off but some people opt to leave their under bottoms on. You then get under the covers of the massage table.

More and more, massage is receiving mainstream acceptance as an alternative to pain relieving medications. With the opioid crisis in America quickly reaching a boiling point, people are looking towards other viable options for pain relief. I'm particularly passionate about this as I have lost friends to this opioid crisis.

Ian is WONDERFUL! I came in to get a massage done a few weeks back as a gift for my birthday and Ian really helped me out! I was able to set up an appointment for my mom with Ian and I can't express just how thankful I am! Ian really is the best in the business and really knows how to work with you and your needs! I can't express just how great he is! If you are looking for a massage in your budget this is it! The prices are really reasonable! Thank you so much!

Just finished a 90min massage and was blown away by how balanced, relaxed and grounded I feel. Ian is wonderful and massage is definitely one of his gifts. He was very professional, upbeat, attentive and made sure I felt comfortable providing input. It was a great massage, and I feel like everything he worked on will really make a difference long term, not just temporarily. I would highly recommend him!

I feel so lucky to have found Intuition Bodywork & Massage! Ian is an incredibly gifted massage therapist. He has a deep understanding of the different muscle groups, and is kind & professional. Whether it's for prenatal, post natal or standard massages...I've always felt FANTASTIC afterward. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Ian is an amazing therapist, and Intuition is the right name - he just seems to know where the spots are that need work. I've gone to many therapists in the past 10-15 years, and Ian is the best. HIGHLY recommend him!

I had surgery a few months ago and as a result, I had a lot of stiffness in my body despite PT and exercise. I informed Ian of this and he was deliberate about which areas he focused on. He seamlessly went from light pressure to hard pressure based on his expertise and I left feeling rejuvenated. I have had other massages before and left unimpressed. Ian is very personable and you can tell that he cares. I got the 60 min massage and I would definitely return!
Parking is a bit challenging, as there is a small lot shared among the other tenants and their customers in the building, but circling around

Ian is an excellent massage therapist! He incorporates stretches into his massages, which is better for long term well-being. Very knowledgeable. I appreciated being able ask questions regarding his observations on my muscle tension & learn new things about muscle anatomy.
As the business name indicates, he is very intuitive as to where stresses and strains are in the body & offers advice on how to correct. Best massage I've gotten. I recommend at LEAST a 1hr session. Will definitely book again!!

I found Ian through Groupon when I was at my breaking point and finally decided I needed a massage to help my neck and shoulder pain. I couldn't have had better luck! Ian was able to make time for me later that day. He truly listened to what I had been feeling and throughout the massage focused on those areas specifically. He checked in with me throughout as well to make sure I was getting the attention needed. Even though I asked him to focus on specific areas, he worked in time for my legs and arms too, leaving me feeling fully rejuvenated and balanced. Instead of cutting off right at 60 minutes

I have been visiting Ian monthly for over 5 years. Prior to that, I would chase the Groupon or Living Social deals. Since finding Ian, I have had no reason to go anywhere else.
He really listens to your concerns and customizes his treatments to your trouble areas, while also managing to work every area during a full body massage. He provides the firm pressure I need on my upper back and skillfully works on the tension in my neck. He also incorporates stretches, if warranted, and soothing hot foot towels. He's been a pleasure to know. I always leave feeling relaxed and refreshed.
