Services
Deep Tissue Massage
This technique targets deeper muscle layers using firm pressure to address chronic tension and release adhesions. Ideal for injury recovery and postural imbalances, it improves circulation while promoting relaxation. Our therapists combine this with movement assessment to ensure lasting pain relief and enhanced mobility for clients seeking structural realignment.
Neuromuscular Therapy
Specialized treatment focusing on trigger point identification and elimination through precise pressure application. Effective for chronic pain management, this science-based approach addresses musculoskeletal dysfunction by releasing muscle spasms and improving blood flow. Sessions include posture assessment to identify contributing factors to pain patterns and develop targeted treatment strategies.
Table Thai Stretching
Combines traditional Thai stretching techniques with Western body mechanics to improve flexibility and range of motion. Performed fully clothed, this dynamic therapy uses passive stretching and acupressure to relieve tension while enhancing circulation. Particularly beneficial for athletes and office workers, it helps correct postural imbalances through guided body positioning and muscle engagement.
Cupping Therapy
Ancient healing technique using controlled suction to mobilize blood flow and release fascial restrictions. Effective for muscle tension relief and toxin elimination, it complements other therapies by increasing tissue pliability. Our practitioners use both stationary and gliding cup techniques to address specific pain points while promoting systemic circulation and lymphatic drainage.
Pain Alleviation Solution
Comprehensive 90-minute session combining multiple modalities for lasting pain relief. Includes infrared sauna warm-up, posture assessment, and customized treatment using Gua Sha, hot stones, and neuromuscular techniques. Designed for chronic pain sufferers, this integrative approach addresses both symptoms and underlying causes through multi-phase treatment strategies and at-home self-care recommendations.

Questions
What should I expect during my first massage session?
Your initial session includes a brief consultation about your needs followed by customized treatment. Therapists will check your pain levels and posture before applying appropriate techniques. Sessions typically begin with lighter pressure to assess tissue response before deeper work.
How do I choose between different massage modalities?
Our therapists will help determine the best approach based on your goals. Deep tissue works for chronic tension, Swedish for relaxation, and neuromuscular therapy for specific pain points. Combination sessions often yield best results for complex issues.
Are gift cards available for purchase?
Yes, we offer digital gift cards through our website that can be used for any service or membership. Recipients can schedule appointments at their convenience using the provided code.
What should I wear for a massage session?
Wear comfortable clothing you can move in for Table Thai sessions. For traditional massage, undress to your comfort level - draping ensures privacy. Avoid restrictive clothing before appointments to maximize treatment effectiveness.
Do you offer packages or membership options?
Yes, we have a New Client Special (2 massages for $140) and monthly membership plans with discounted rates and exclusive benefits. Members receive priority scheduling and special offers throughout the year.
How can massage help with chronic pain management?
Regular sessions interrupt pain cycles through targeted tissue work and nervous system regulation. Our therapists use multiple techniques to address both symptoms and underlying causes, providing tools for at-home maintenance between sessions.

I'm getting one of the best treatments from Denis that I've ever received. So much more than just a typical deep tissue massage, this has me feeling my best after his work. Thank you so very much Team Angelic Healing Hands! I do recommend your service to all my friends when they ask, and have recently had my wife sign up for annual membership too. Be Well! Ric.

I have never had a masseuse get every single point on my body that I had been in drudgery and agony in for over the last two years. I minimally mentioned and very passively said "if you could get to these spots that are of focus for me that would be nice but really I would love to enjoy full bodywork." Not only did Kelly hit every mark but to the extent that it had A HUGE impact on my alignment. I am definitely returning and would love to book with Kelly again and her Healing Hands! For sure! Thank you for that wonderful and cathartic experience you gave me!
