If traditional massage settings like spas leave you feeling uneasy, or if the idea of letting a stranger touch you feels overwhelming, trauma-sensitive massage offers a safe space to explore receiving therapeutic touch and to reconnect with your body.

This work is especially designed for individuals who have experienced trauma, feel nervous about touch, or want care from someone who truly understands how trauma impacts the body and nervous system.

This kind of massage can help:

• Support nervous system regulation by creating a safe and grounding experience.

• Foster a sense of embodiment, helping you feel more present and connected to your body.

• Alleviate the physical effects of chronic stress or tension held in the body.

• Explore boundaries and resistance to touch in a way that feels safe and collaborative.

• Gently unwind patterns of holding or bracing, allowing your body to release and settle.

Massage can be a powerful tool for healing, not just physically but in cultivating a deeper connection with yourself. Trauma-sensitive massage creates an environment where you can experience touch at a pace that feels right for you. Each session is a partnership, honoring your unique needs, boundaries, and readiness.

This work supports your healing by helping your nervous system shift out of survival mode into a place of safety and regulation. Over time, it can deepen your sense of embodiment, ease, and connection, giving your body a chance to remember what it feels like to feel relaxed and at ease.

Trauma-sensitive massage offers a compassionate, nonjudgmental space for healing.
