Services
Deep Tissue Massage
This technique targets deep muscle layers to alleviate chronic pain and tension. Ideal for clients with persistent stiffness in necks, shoulders, or backs, it realigns connective tissue and promotes circulation. Our therapists use customized pressure to address specific problem areas, helping reduce inflammation and improve mobility through focused manual therapy.
Manual Lymph Drainage
A specialized massage technique designed to stimulate lymph fluid movement throughout the body. Particularly beneficial for post-surgical recovery, chronic fatigue, or fibromyalgia patients, it reduces swelling and enhances immune function. Therapists use gentle, rhythmic motions to encourage natural drainage patterns and support the body's detoxification processes.
Pregnancy Massage
Tailored for expectant mothers to address common discomforts during pregnancy. This service alleviates back pain, leg swelling, and joint stiffness while improving circulation. Therapists use specialized positioning techniques to ensure comfort and safety, focusing on areas of tension while promoting relaxation and emotional well-being throughout pregnancy.
Chemical Peel Facial
This treatment exfoliates dead skin cells to improve texture and tone. Customized peels address acne, hyperpigmentation, or fine lines using controlled chemical solutions. The process stimulates collagen production, revealing smoother, brighter skin with visible improvements after a series of treatments for lasting skincare benefits.
Cupping Massage
Utilizing suction therapy to relieve muscle tension and improve circulation, this technique loosens adhesions in soft tissue. Cupping promotes blood flow to targeted areas, reducing inflammation and accelerating recovery from muscle strain. Clients often experience immediate relief from chronic pain while enjoying the calming effects on the nervous system.

Scheduled a massage since I pulled a muscle in my back. I scheduled with the new therapist Sam. Upon arrival, I told him I pulled a muscle in my lower back and he advised it was my hip flexor and that he had some stretches that will help. During the massage, he did some stretches that helped tremendously. After that my back began to heal and has been better since. I'm appreciative to Sam for his knowledge and attention to the problem area since it helped relieve pain I was feeling for 1-2 weeks prior to the massage. Also, this was my 3-4th massage at Soothing Sessions and each time I've had a different massage therapist and each massage was amazing. I recommend Soothing Sessions to everyone now.

I don't get massages to often but when I do I always enjoy it and get so relaxed I usually fall asleep for a few. This was honestly least favorite massage I've received in a professional place. It was gentle rubbing and didn't get any knots I had on my back out. All the other places I went had the table warm, this one wasn't. She didn't even wear shoes, not professional especially it being my first visit. I won't be returning. Edit after the owner replied. She didn't introduce herself nor ask if thr pressure was good.

I want to give praise where praise is due. The team at Soothing Sessions Massage has always been very professional. Mary gives a phenomenal deep tissue massage and is so easy to talk to. As a dentist having to lean over and bend my neck, my back feels it at the end of the day. Mary is keeping me in great shape to be able to continue to help other people. Thank you for all that you do, Soothing Sessions Team!
