Services
Every massage is customized to the needs of the client. Therefore your massage may include elements of Swedish, Deep Tissue, Neuromuscular Facilitation, Myofascial Release, Shiatsu and other therapies. Our therapist will discuss your needs and preferences to provide your best massage. Couples massage is a great way to share the massage experience with a minor child as Pennsylvania law requires an adult to be in the room.
Massage creates a profound state of relaxation unlike any other. Many clients who get massage regularly report a decreased need for pain and sleep medications, making massage a natural approach to managing stress and daily pain. One of the most consistent benefits of massage is pain relief. Over time your body becomes accustomed to being in a tense state and your muscles may actually forget how to relax.

We got a couples massage and it was very enjoyable! I have back problems with multiples surgeries and was so grateful for their carefulness. She was able to work out a lot of tight muscles without causing me pain. My husband really enjoyed the experience too! Kind staff, comfortable environment. Highly recommend.

My organization hired Shelley and her team to provide massages for a multi-day athletic event that we were putting on for 300 people. She was incredibly flexible in working through the logistics and challenges that come with outdoor events, with multiple locations over multiple days.
She was also able to provide a guided meditation walking tour for our attendees. This was a unique offering that we've never had before and we appreciated being able to and a new and interesting element to our event.
I would highly recommend Shelley and her team for a large scale events where you need to provide
