$65.00
Biofield Tuning: Clearing Your Emotional Energy
Biofield Tuning is a unique process designed to shift patterns & rhythms of the electromagnetic energy that flows through & around your body. It is not stress that kills us but how we respond to stress. Being grounded & centered is the cure for much of what ails us. Using tuning forks as a vibrational tool we are able to identify events in your life when you reacted with an intense emotion such as fear or anger. These charged memories literally lock us into restrictive patterns of limited response to life’s daily challenges. The work is done with you fully-clothed while lying face-up on a massage table. 90 minutes is needed and one or two follow-up sessions may be necessary.PLEASE NOTE: Biofield Tuning can sometimes produce what is known as a Herxheimer Reaction, also known as detoxification. This sometimes lasts 1-3 days and in rare instances can last up to two weeks.
$160.00
CranioSacral Re-Balancing
CranioSacral Therapy works with the subtle bones of the skull and sacrum to balance the cerebrospinal fluid which influences many bodily functions. A very gentle approach to re-balancing soft tissue structures often compromised by injury or trauma, it has proven to be very effective in the treatment of chronic pain, migraine headaches, low-back pain, TMJD, and other stress-related symptoms. (30-minutes: $70, 45-minutes: $90, 1-hour: $110)
$70.00
Deep Tissue Massage
Quite different from “a Therapeutic Massage with Extra Pressure,” our Deep Tissue Massage focuses on releasing muscle restrictions (adhesions) and re-balancing structural tension (holding patterns) running through the several layers of soft tissue (muscle). Deep Tissue Massage requires a much slower pace than our Therapeutic Massage and more than one session is usually necessary for better results and/or resolution. Very effective if you have strained a muscle resulting in limited (and possibly painful) movement. (30-minutes: $80, 45-minutes: $95, 1-hour: $110, 90-minutes: $150, 2-hours: $195)
$80.00
Facial Stretch Therapy
Fascial Stretch Therapy is a new cutting-edge technology based on the most recent scientific understanding of how the body organizes itself for movement. Therapist uses a combination of traction, PNF stretching, and conscious breathing – all of which, when combined, lengthens the fascia and not just your muscles. This unique process makes use of multiple planes of movement which targets the entire joint resulting in maximum flexibility, increased power, speed and agility for athletes. For injury recovery and rehabilitation FST is a powerful therapeutic tool for reducing recovery time. (1-hour: $110 90-minutes: $150)
$110.00
Initial Structural Assessment
AN INJURY IS CONSIDERED TO BE CHRONIC WHEN EITHER PAIN OR OTHER DISCOMFORTING SYMPTOMS ARE STILL PRESENT AFTER 3 MONTHS.This preliminary session is essential in order to better understand your body’s current need to be so guarded, and for us, together, to conceptualize a goal of improved structural balance resulting in less, or eventually, no pain at all.Includes a detailed discussion about the nature of the injury, a preliminary structural assessment, some palpation, some passive range-of-movement, and some massage.Required before any structural bodywork such as Rehab Manual Therapy, Rehab Myotherapy, and Structural Integration.
$95.00
Integrative Acupuncture
While Acupuncture and Tui Na are usually done separately, the two can be combined for maximum efficacy. Needles at the ends of the channels help them open while the massage loosens and soothes the muscles. Truly a transformative experience.
$125.00
Integrative Bodywork
AN ACUTE INJURY USUALLY OCCURS WHEN WE’VE PUSHED OUR MUSCLES BEYOND THEIR NORMAL RANGE-OF-MOTION OFTEN RESULTING IN PAIN.Integrative Bodywork combines several healing bodywork modalities with therapeutic massage. Some of those modalities might include: CranioSacral therapy, Trigger Point therapy, Myofascial Release, Deep Tissue, Positional Release, Neuromuscular Facilitation, Reiki, and acupressure. Very effective in treating some chronic pain issues such as sciatica, acute injuries such as whiplash, sports-related injuries, carpal tunnel and other repetitive stress injuries (RSIs), plus physical traumas such as accidents involving falling-down, bicycling, and automobiles.1-hour usually gives the therapist enough time to focus on those areas of the body associated with the pain or injury. Several treatments are often necessary to understand and resolve the issue(s). (Price range from 75.00-185.00)
$75.00
Manual Lymph Drainage
Therapist uses very gentle pressure. Each session lasts from 75 to 90 minutes, and therapy usually is performed once a day several times a week for two to four weeks. The lymphatic system is a vital bodily defense against infection & disease, and lymphatic massage is one of the best things you can do to help your body help itself. Our Manual Lymph Drainage specialists have the experience & skill to help reduce the debilitating effects of stagnant or excessive lymph fluid in the body. Studies have found lymphatic massage to be a medically beneficial form of physical therapy for lymphedema-related issues. Lipedema, an often misdiagnosed and misunderstood disease, currently affects millions of women who don’t even realize it.Please Note: If you have been diagnosed with lymphedema, please make sure to receive clearance from your doctor & bring a letter (60 minutes=110, 90 minutes=150)
$110.00
Massage Instruction for Couples
Have you ever wished that your “significant other” could give you a therapeutic massage when you were feeling stiffness or in pain? You will learn specific massage techniques customized to your needs. We will teach you how to safely massage several common areas of tension due to overuse such as the: neck,shoulders, back, arms, hands, legs, and feet. Each 90-minute session includes individual practice time.Also helps improve communication as individuals learn to express their needs, learn to give & receive valuable feedback, and feel listened to and cared for. A sure win-win for everyone!
$150.00
Massage for Children (under 18)
The pressures of school academics and intramural sports sometimes takes a toll on a child’s body. Stress can affect a child’s ability to sleep soundly and/or stay focused on daily lessons. Athletic injuries can occur at any age and often do. Soccer, for example, requires a great deal of running which can result in very tight ITBands and calf muscles.A 30-minute massage is recommended for a young child when too much stress is suspected as being a causative factor in the child’s health, or a longer 45 minute session when the issue is a chronic one.PLEASE NOTE: A PARENT’S PRESENCE IS REQUIRED. (30-minute Integrative Bodywork: $55, 45-minute Integrative Bodywork: $70, 30-minute Therapeutic Massage: $45, 45-minute Therapeutic Massage: $60)
$45.00
Matrix Energetics
A new consciousness technology that combines the limitless potential of energy work with the principles of quantum & scalar physics. Everything can be broken down to fields of energy and information including our bodies, and our minds act as processors of this energy & information.This means that any symptom of dis-ease can be seen as just a field of disorganized energy that can be changed simply by bringing in a higher level of organization. In this session you will have the opportunity to share as much as you need to with your therapist. (Initial Session / 1-hour: $100, 45-minutes: $85)
$85.00

Let us help you adjust to them gracefully with reduced pain and discomfort. Prenatal Massage can help you sleep better and boost your energy.

Rehab Myotherapy
An Initial Structural Assessment is required prior to this treatment session. Please select Initial Structural Assessment prior to your first session.Rehab Myotherapy focuses on chronic areas of pain due to injury or serious muscle strain. During the course of the treatments there is an unwinding of “old tissue patterns” which are responsible for having created your current pain.The therapist’s goal is to help reorganize (rebalance) your connective tissue and nervous system in order to allow for a more efficient and mechanically correct way of using your body. Generally requires several sessions to be effective. (45-minutes: $95, 1-hour: $110, 90-minutes: $150)
$95.00
Shamanic Healing
An ancient form of energetic healing which works on the luminous energy field that surrounds every living body. The Inca Shamans believe that within this energy field is contained a template which animates all of the important details of our lives such as what kind of diseases we will inherit, how we heal, how we age, the same stories & conditions that get played out over and over again in our lives, and so on.These templates are called imprints which is nothing more than encoded information that is recorded within the luminous energy field, and is similar to the way that information in the form of software programs are stored on a hard disk on your computer. As such, we are able to erase those imprints of dis-order and dis-ease due to past events. (1-hour: $110, 90-minutes: $150)
$110.00
Somato Therapy
SomatoTherapy is highly effective at releasing one’s mental stress & anxiety, improving clarity of thought, increasing mobility, and dramatically relieving pain. Utilizing a cutting-edge approach based upon recent neuroscience research habitual unconscious thoughts responsible for stress are replaced by new conscious thoughts. The end result is a restoration of your body’s natural & normal internal balance. (1-hour: $100, 90-minutes: $140)
$100.00
Sports Massage
If you’re a runner, we are going to concentrate on your legs; if you’re a swimmer, we will spend more time on your upper body and hips; a cyclist, your hip flexors, quads, ITB, calves and upper trapezius will likely be targeted.A sports massage therapist may use their forearm or the palm of their hand to bear down on the muscles in your legs and back to separate and relax them and their fingers to put direct pressure on a muscle in spasm, which can be painful but will reduce your pain later. Along with massage we’ll combine deep tissue massage and stretching when necessary to help maximize your muscles’ potential. (30-minutes: $75, 45-minutes: $90, 1-hour: $105, 90-minutes: $145, 2-hours: $185)

$160.00
Therapeutic Cupping
Therapeutic Cupping helps to relieve chronic pain by releasing extremely tight restrictions by combining aspects of deep tissue & myofascial massage. It is based upon a technique used by acupuncturists for thousands of years to relieve congestion and stagnation in the body. Our Therapeutic Cupping is a modernized technique using controlled suction through a hand pump and BPA-free cups.Cupping effectively draws stagnant inflammation and toxins from the body to be properly disposed through the lymphatic system. Cupping is very relaxing and the perfect choice for when your muscles have become so tight that even deep tissue massage is unable to release the accumulated tension.You’ll also receive added benefits of increased ranged of motion, tissue hydration, and fluid circulation for healthy cells. (45-minutes: $95, 1-hour: $110)
$95.00
Therapeutic Massage
OUR SIGNATURE MASSAGE. Blends a general Swedish-based massage with muscular therapy techniques to reduce significant tension due to either muscle strain or excessive stress. Some discomfort may result during treatment but a renewed sense of ease and feeling relaxed should last for several days. All sessions are customized for individual needs.With that in mind, we ask that you please communicate with your therapist about the technique and pressure to be used. You may need to upgrade to one of our Advanced Bodywork modalities (see Integrative Bodywork or Deep Tissue Massage) if your pain involves several muscles or fascial lines. But if your wish is to feel relaxed and still have some of your pain & tension reduced our Therapeutic Massage is probably right for you. (30-minutes: $60, 45-minutes: $75, 1-hour: $90, 75-minutes: $110, 90-minutes: $130, 2-hours: $175)

Naomi Ibasitas
I had a really great experience for our first visit! I tried to book online but because I was looking to book a couples massage I got confused so I called to book the appointment. Since I had looked online I was able to see the therapists and times available ahead of time so the receptionist made booking the appointment absolutely seamless. On the day of our appointment, the reception and waiting area was warm and welcoming. Our therapists, Luz and John Jay, did absolutely amazing jobs! I’m very happy that my partner and I were able to share the same room or our massage. Check out was also seamless and we left very happy, relaxed, and ready for the rest of the day! We’re definitely looking to come back soon!

I had a great experience. This was my first time here since my daughter just started school out there. If you are anything like me and feel uneasy about going to get a massage at a place you haven’t been Jessenia makes the whole experience really easy. She is laid back and makes the whole experience as relaxing as you wished for. Great massage and positive experience! Thanks Chris

Every interaction I had with a representative was lovely and helpful! This includes the person who answered the phone and booked my appointment. This definitely includes Carrie, who was my massage therapist. She was phenomenal. So skillful. Kind. I came in desperately needing a level of relaxation I was having trouble accessing. Carrie’s work transported me where I needed to go. Thanks to all at MassageWorks!

An absolutely wonderful massage therapy company. They’ve been in business for a LONG time, offer a ton of services, and have lots of employees, so you can pretty much get any type of massage any time you want. The offices are lovely and the front desk staff are great. I highly recommend this place!

I had a great experience at Massage Works after being referred by a friend. Professional, good basic set up. Masseuse listened to my concerns and asked questions. They adjusted pressure accordingly. My issue of concern is feeling better the day after! I will definitely go back.

I’ve been going to Massage Therapy Works for many years and I’ve always had great experiences. My last two therapeutic massages were with Orion. They were the perfect mix of relaxation with more pressure & focus on high tension areas like my neck and back from working at a computer all day. I highly recommend Orion & Massage Therapy works! Can’t wait to schedule my next massage!

I went to MessageTherapy works for the first time this past weekend and had an excellent experience. Orion was my masseuse and he give a wonderful massage – he was very professional and thoughtful. The building itself may be a bit unassuming on the outside, but it’s superbly clean with a relaxing atmosphere on the inside. Would highly recommend.

I love massage therapy works. I saw Orion and he was so professional and knew exactly how to help with the issues I was having. He was also really generous with advice about how I can help myself through posture and heating pads. I definitely will be back!
