Similar to a chiropractic visit, this short but practical massage can fit into a tight schedule, providing a reset that leaves patients more relaxed, at ease, and glowing. May book twice/wk.
Unlock muscle tightness and joint stiffness. Melt tension and optimize tone.
Improve blood quality, comfort, calm, performance, brain function, recovery, postural intelligence.
Tortoise Mountain Massage is a personalized blend of the following approaches:
- Taoist. Taoist natural medicine relies on the channel and points systems utilized in modern Acupuncture. It draws on medical traditions stretching back over 2,000 years. The patient may feel the practitioner stop at and open specific points around the system, or apply warming pressure, gentle pulling, or percussion to tissue regions to help balance temperature, tone, and fluidity.
- Osteopathic. "Bone-Listening" technique which includes placing gentle pressure on muscles to stimulate bone stretching - improving their density, and their production of nutrient-rich blood, which helps tight muscles to become warm and relaxed. Because it relies on natural ways of improving energy, it feels relaxing and restorative. Compare to an experience that feels good but leaves a patient feeling drained.
- Traditional Swedish / Deep Tissue / Sports Massage. Relaxing gliding strokes, pulling and warming tissue, and deepening pressure to work out tight muscles or stagnations. These techniques are applied within a framework that both feels amazing, and improves long-term wellness.
- Tai Chi Chuan: Taijiquan, transliterated as "Tai Chi" includes postural contemplation that improve warmth, brain circulation, and tranquil focus. The practitioner introduces easy-to-integrate tai chi techniques that optimize massage depth, contentment and calm - improving effectiveness. The practitioner may also inspire easy ways to bring these tools to daily life.
The practitioner also has training in the following, and utilizes them as requested or as is helpful: Myofascial release (Commonly included), Scalp and Cranialsacral massage therapy (commonly integrated), pre-natal massage/post-partum recovery, and Shiatsu, Medical Chi Gong, Assisted Stretching, Sound healing, and Acutonics Tuning Fork Therapy.
Based on mutual openness and perceived benefit, this visit may be extended to 30 min at no extra cost. For an extra fee, it may be extended to 40.

*While we will eventually gather enough health information in the shorter appointments to develop a comprehensive plan for your health, growth and success, planning for a longer first visit - although a larger up-front investment - can save time, money and energy overall, as we can more quickly gather what's needed to feel confident in addressing your unique situation.
The other appointments are lower-cost ways for new patients to have an initial experience with us. If you are reasonably sure you want to be supported in addressing a long-term health goal or concern, we recommend starting here, or even better with the intro offer below.
This visit may occur through secure video call if in-person is not possible or ideal.
It includes a systems assessment where we learn about your health systems, your primary goal (s) or concern (s), medical and health history.
It also includes education on the science of change, and on how the process of working with us supports making your desired change solid.
This appointment may also include (based on patient preference and need): bodywork therapy or movement therapy, helping to improve circulation, relaxation, and to commit the conversational learning to memory.
This appointment will also most likely include health education and coaching on a concrete step to immediately help with feeling better: less pain, more comfort, less distraction, more focus, and less fear and nervousness, more calm and more contentedness.
We may meet 1-2 additional times before a comprehensive plan is developed, at which point we will present it to you in virtual and printed form, at which point you are welcome to take the time you need to find the best way forward for you.
You will receive a detailed and color-printed treatment plan which will include: a) Summary of the chief concerns reframed into extremely specific steps and goals; b) the primary and secondary changes we expect to occur, and by when we expect to see them c) a few different options for treatment, our explanation of the pros and cons of each approach, and why we think the proposed path is the best one, d) investment totals, and packages that will save you time and money. e) educational materials and resources
