There is something powerful that happens when traditional therapy and intentional bodywork meet.

I have watched it firsthand while working inside a therapy office — the way the mind and body begin speaking the same language when both are given space to be heard.

Traditional therapy gives people a place to process, understand, name, and witness what they have carried.

Intentional bodywork gives the body a place to soften, release, reconnect, and feel safe enough to let go of what no longer serves it.

Together, they create something deeply healing.

I have watched people find pieces of themselves again through this connection. I have witnessed the nervous system settle. I have seen emotions move through the body in ways words alone sometimes cannot reach.

And honestly, experiencing this has been more fascinating than any study I could read or any documentary I could watch.

There is something sacred about being in the room where healing becomes more than a conversation — it becomes something felt, something embodied, something remembered by the whole self.

I have loved being in this realm.

And it has opened something in me — a vision for what I hope to help create in the future: a bridge between traditional therapy and intentional mind-body healing, where both are honored, respected, and used together to support deeper healing.

Because we are not just minds.

We are not just bodies.

We are whole beings, and our healing deserves to be whole too

I’m excited to share that I will begin scheduling mobile massage appointments the week after the 4th of July.

Mobile massage will be offered on Tuesdays and Fridays and will be available for women only in the comfort of your home or office.

All you will need is a quiet space large enough for a massage table.

Services Offered:

1 Hour Massage
Regularly $85
July Special: $75

90 Minute Massage
Regularly $120
July Special: $105

2.5 Hour Trauma & Emotional Release Massage
Regularly $215
July Special: $180

You may also add a short sound healing session to any massage for $20.

Every session begins with breathwork to help your nervous system settle and allow your body to begin softening into rest.

My massage work is rooted in the mind-body connection. I am not a deep tissue massage therapist. My focus is relaxation, emotional release, nervous system support, and creating a safe, peaceful space for your body to rest, reconnect, and begin to heal.

Our bodies hold so much — stress, grief, motherhood, burnout, work pressure, daily responsibilities, and the emotions we don’t always have time to process.

My passion is creating a nurturing space for women to pause, breathe, release, and remember themselves again.

For special occasions, small groups, or events, I may be able to accommodate additional days or times with adequate notice.

If you would like to schedule a July mobile massage appointment, please message me to reserve your spot.

Appts will be offered in Lebanon and surrounding areas with a small travel fee outside of Lebanon.

I have a couple of openings left before I take off from Waynesville and focus on helping a little more with my grandbabies. If you haven’t experienced my 2.5 hr massage and would like to I have two openings left before my last day on June 5th. I will greatly miss Waynesville and the beautiful people I have met. This isn’t goodbye forever just a little intermission.

Yesterday I had the honor of co-hosting my first event of yin yoga for grief and trauma with Sunni Nutt at Essential Yoga Studio in Springfield, and it was such a beautiful experience.

Working with Sunni was absolutely amazing. Watching everyone who attended connect with their mind, body, and the quiet signals we often don’t have time or space to listen to in everyday life was something I’ll never forget.

I’m so thankful for compassionate people like Sunni who create space, bring practitioners together, and help offer new ways of healing in this world.

What an incredible first experience. My heart is so grateful.

Starting July 13th, I will officially be offering mobile massage.

For now, these appointments will be available on Tuesdays and Fridays, with one Sunday each month. Mobile massage will be offered for women only, within the Lebanon area and close to where I live in the Competition/Falcon area. If travel is farther out, a small travel fee may be added depending on the distance.

All booking will be made by text, private message, or phone. Appointment times will be limited due to travel time, so if you would like to get on the schedule, please reach out.

The massage I offer is something I learned while in India, and it is a little different than traditional massage. It is not just about working the muscles. It is about creating a safe space for the mind and body to reconnect, soften, and release whatever the body may be carrying.

This work can be especially supportive for women who are carrying burnout, stress, grief, trauma, emotional heaviness, or simply feel like they have been holding everything together for too long.

One of the things that helped me make this decision is the kind of massage I do. There is something really powerful about receiving this work in your own safe space. After a session, instead of having to get in the car, drive home, and step right back into life, you can simply stay where you are. You can sit with what softened, what released, or what came up. You can rest, breathe, drink water, journal, or just be.

I made this decision solely from a place of wanting to be closer to home, to help a little more with my grandbabies, and to give myself space to focus on where I feel my future is leading me with all the things I have learned and want to share with others.

Until then, we will be welcoming a new granddaughter and spending much-needed time snuggling her a little, and her sister too.

This is not the end of my work. It is just a softer shift into something that feels more aligned for this season of my life.

I am so grateful for everyone who has supported me, trusted me, and allowed me to be part of their healing and self-care. More details and available dates will be shared soo

I wanted to share a little update with everyone.

My last week at the Waynesville location will be the first week of June, so I can finish out all remaining appointments already scheduled.

After that, I’ll be taking some time to be with my family and help with my new grandbaby and her big sister. My daughter is stepping into a new and exciting job, and I want to be able to support her, help with the little things, and give her a little more peace as she settles into this new season.

In July, I’ll be adding some mobile massage appointments for women only.

I am so grateful for everyone who has supported me in Waynesville. It has truly meant so much to build a quiet, peaceful business in such a beautiful space.

This is not the end, just a pause to spend quality time with my family and be present where I’m needed most.

Thank you all so much for understanding and supporting me through each season.

Hi friends! Sunni here! 👋 This Saturday evening is our workshop supporting integration and embodiment of grief and trauma through Yin Yoga.

I’ll be partnering with certified holistic grief coach Heather Weddle: through her work, Heather offers a trauma-informed, mind–body–spirit approach to grief support. Her work is rooted in a fully immersive training that honors the complexity of loss, including nervous system responses, emotional processing, and the deeply personal nature of grief. Through her certification, she’s trained in nervous system regulation, somatic and body-based practices, inner child work, emotional and subconscious exploration, and creative and ritual-based processes that support healing and integration. Heather’s also a Licensed Massage Therapist, Certified Sound Healer, and Breathwork Facilitator. 🤩

Heather will be leading us in facial massage practices to help us connect to felt sensations in our bodies, and leading us through a body mapping exercise as we explore Yin Yoga postures together.

With my personal and professional experience in crisis work, including domestic violence and trauma support, and continuing education in trauma-informed yoga, I’ll work with Heather to create and share a safe, compassionate space where we can explore grief in a way that feels authentic, supported, and deeply human.

I hope you’ll join us and I welcome any questions you have about this experience. 💜

See all the details and book at the Events page of our website.

In honor of my mom and Mother’s Day, I wanted to offer something meaningful for the month of May. Our bodies carry so much more than we realize. Stress, grief, emotions, trauma, and the everyday weight of life can settle into the body as tension, pain, heaviness, or exhaustion. This 2.5 hour trauma and emotional release massage is created to support the mind body connection and give your nervous system space to soften, release, and breathe again.

For all appointments booked in May, my 2.5 hour trauma and emotional massage will be $175, normally $215.

This is for anyone needing a reset, anyone carrying too much, anyone grieving, overwhelmed, stressed, or simply needing a safe place to land for a while.

If you do not see an appointment time available, please private message me. I do have some off calendar dates available. May this be a gentle way to honor the women we love, the women we miss, and the women who are still holding so much.

Massage is not just for sore muscles. Sometimes our bodies carry stress grief trauma and overwhelm in ways we don’t even realize. Gentle intentional touch can help the nervous system slow down soften and feel safe again. It gives your body a place to release what it has been holding and reconnect with itself.

If you have been feeling heavy tense emotional or just disconnected massage may be a beautiful place to start.
