Special Expertise
- classical massage

- MamaMassage® - Prenatal Massage
Masseter muscle massage is suitable for anyone who clenches their teeth, grinds their teeth, or experiences tension or pain in the masseter muscles or head area. During the massage, the muscles are massaged from inside the mouth (using gloves) and on the face, and the neck, shoulder, and head areas are treated. For your first visit, it’s best to schedule a 60-minute appointment for the initial consultation and examination; follow-up visits may only require 45 minutes.
MamaMassage® prenatal massage is available during all stages of pregnancy. You can lie on your side, on your back as long as it feels comfortable, or sit upright. As your due date approaches or after you’ve given birth, I can provide a treatment to prepare you for labor. After giving birth, you can come in for a massage as soon as you feel ready; you can lie on your side if lying on your stomach doesn’t feel comfortable yet. The massage can also address a C-section scar once it has healed.
Listening to the client and adjusting the massage techniques to suit each individual is central to my approach. It’s possible to relieve muscle tension while still ensuring the overall experience is relaxing. A massage can be both effective and enjoyable at the same time!
All body types and life situations are welcome in my practice. I want to respect every client and create a safe space for members of sexual and gender minorities as well.
