Parking: Please give yourself an extra moment to find parking. There are typically two hour spaces available in the south parking lot, and some street parking.

~Looking forward to seeing you there!

Thanks for asking!

-Using your breath deeply during session helps alot. If you breathe deep into a point of tension, or whenever it feels good, this is a great way to work together to get some great release.

-Move your body if you want to during session- sometimes folks think they need to be still… if you ever get the urge to move a leg around, take your head out of the headrest, contract a muscle, whatever you feel called to do… you are encouraged to do so! Unless your blissfully napping :)

-Consider taking a walk after session before you move to the next thing. It's so nice to help integrate

-Lots of hydration :)

-Let the herbal body oils soak in and stay on, rather than taking a shower after. It’s liken to a cup of nourishing tea for your skin :)

Not at this time~ however I can send you a coded “superbill” for you to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

I take HSA cards.

Cancelation: If you call to cancel with more than 24 hours notice, the service will be cancelled at no charge. Less than 24 hours notice, the full service price may be charged~ however if you reschedule and I am able to find a client to take your time slot, there will be no charge.

No Show: Clients who miss their appointments without giving any prior notification may be charged in full for the scheduled service.

Sick Clients: If you feel sick, please stay home- I can reschedule for when you are well, no problem. If you come in to receive service while visibly sick, services will not be performed, and you will be charged in full.

Your treatment will begin and end at the scheduled times- If you arrive late, the therapist may not be able to give you the full-service time, as there may be clients scheduled after you.

We follow the WA Department of Health Policies.

There is a HEPA air filter at work in the room during office hours, and daily care is taken to keep the studio clean.

Amber is vaxxed and boosted.

Please reschedule if you are not feeling well in any way, have kids that are sick, or have been exposed to a close one who is sick. We can reschedule or refund no problem! This helps keep me and my community healthy.

If you are displaying symptoms of covid-19, have been around anyone exposed to covid-19 in the last 14 days, or are feeling unwell, please stay home~ we can reschedule or issue a refund no problem!

Masking is optional- however you feel most comfortable receiving a session.

I don’t have a running discount, but I DO offer a sliding scale!

The sliding scale is in hopes that price is not a barrier to receiving bodywork. It is important to me that this work is accessible to those who seek it.

The sliding scale is available upon request~ just reach out via email or telephone, let me know your service of interest, and I’ll book you!

Absolutely! Happy to set up out of the office and/or for company events. For in-home service, there is an additional $50 travel and setup fee, and a travel radius that I am willing to commute.

For company events, I can join an event, and also have a network of therapists that can set up for in-office massage~ get in touch to book!

My travel area covers South Seattle up through Fremont

I welcome people of all races, ethnicities, countries of origin, gender, weights, and sexual orientation. You are Welcome and Valued.

If you are ready to invest in your wellbeing, I am excited to work with you!

Whatever your disability, feel free to reach out and let me know if you need any accommodations! There is also an intake form in which you can list everything you need.

I happily work with deaf, mute, and blind folk, and have apps that can support our communication, as I'm sure do you!

Wheelchair accessibility: The massage office is wheelchair accessible, and I’m happy to help transfer you onto the table if needed! However, the bathroom is unfortunately not wheelchair accessible. Please feel free to get in touch for more details or if you have any questions!

My prices listed are a flat rate. Tipping is not required, nor expected. I've set the price with thought and care.

You coming in to get a session is the biggest tip!

Should you have the means and want to give more, tips are welcome: it goes towards supporting both my sliding scale, and me in life.

For more on the broader/general dynamics of tipping in the massage field, I've added my learnings, thoughts and reflections here:

What’s up with tipping for massage, anyway?

This question comes up. Tipping for massage is all over the place, and sometimes hard to navigate; Is it healthcare, or the service industry, or a weird in-between? I’ll share my 2 cents (or shall I say nickel? Now that pennies are gone)…

It depends on the business. Some places are very clear about accepting tips (often spas, chains, or employee-based businesses), while others don’t take tips at all (often medical or clinical massage—though it’s always worth checking). Many fall somewhere in between (like my business), and this is where I’ll give my best answer.

Massage in Washington is legally considered Healthcare, and massage therapists are classified as ‘Healthcare Providers’. At the same time, the field still functions within the service and hospitality industry.

Generally, in Seattle 2025: if you’re paying over $100-$120 to a practitioner who owns their own business, they probably aren’t relying on tips. Under $100-120—especially for employee-based businesses (more often independent contractors)—tips are usually appreciated and can make a real difference (you might be surprised how much of a cut is taken, LMTs earning 30-40% of the session price on average).

So what’s standard, Seattle and beyond? At spas, chains, and hotel settings, a 10–20% tip is pretty typical, if you’re able. For independent practitioners or more clinical, therapeutic, or insurance-based work, tipping often becomes optional and varies a lot—just ask if it’s not clear. Then there are some very underpayed workers out there at very low-cost massage facilities that are especially at risk of burnout or injury due to overworking. Tip these folks extra well.

Overall, it’s absolutely okay not to tip if it doesn’t work for your budget. Your ability to continue getting the care you need matters most.

If ever you want to tip an LMT but don’t have the means, a kind thank-you, a thoughtful review, or coming back again are all golden.

And if you’re someone that is abundant in their monetary wealth, has a strong financial safety net, goes on multiple vacations per year, owns their own house or two… my personal belief is, spreading the wealth where possible is an act of healing and kindness in the current world landscape. Whether tips are asked for or not~ make someone’s day, look out for eachother, practice wealth redistribution.

In the end, tipping is personal. Now that you know the more and less likely businesses that rely on tips~ ask if you’re unsure, spread the wealth if you can, take the pressure off yourself if you can’t… do what fits your finances and comfort.

And most importantly, congradulations for getting bodywork! Self care can sometimes be challenging for folks to prioritize. I hope you find joy, relief, and balance along your journey.

A general note on massage rates:

Why is it a ‘pricey’ service? Overall, there is a set amount of sessions that each massage practitioner can give in a week, which is right for their body, style of work, and longevity. For example, ~11 sessions per week is my long-term sustainable number, as an able bodied person who typically does very deep tissue work. Massage therapy has a high rate of burnout due to injury or overworking, so when you consider the rate, remember you’re not just paying for the hour—you’re helping sustain the practitioner’s longevity.

And why is it so hard to find an LMT who takes insurance?

Well in Washington, we are lucky that it’s covered at all! Looks like we are currently at 37 states that cover massage in some way. Aside from insurance reimbursement rates below living wage, there are more complexities which I won’t get into, but I will say if you want to advocate for massage to get more coverage country wide, both as a better alternative to pain-management than pharmaceuticals, and better reimbusment rates for massage therapists, you can follow ABMP to see if there’s any legistlative updates or petitions, or AMTA’s ‘action’ page (currently you can sign SB 5507 which aims to expand coverage for medically necessary massage).
