Customized Therapeutic Massage

Every session at Soothing Hands is thoughtfully tailored to your body and your goals. Your session may incorporate therapeutic massage techniques, deep tissue massage with trigger point therapy, sports-based work for active clients, focused upper body work for neck and shoulder tension (our popular “Upper Body Breakdown” style treatment), and traditional relaxation techniques-all blended seamlessly and adjusted to your preferred pressure level. Rather than choosing from rigid categories, you receive a personalized experience designed to restore balance, ease discomfort, and leave you feeling lighter and more at ease.

When booking, simply select your preferred session length under “Massage.” Your therapist will review your intake form with you upon arrival and discuss your specific needs and preferences to ensure your session is fully tailored to you.

Prenatal & Postnatal Massage

Pregnancy and the postpartum season bring incredible changes-physically, emotionally, and hormonally. Our prenatal and postnatal massage sessions are thoughtfully designed to support you through every stage with comfort, safety, and care.

Prenatal massage can help relieve common discomforts such as lower back pain, hip and leg tension, neck and shoulder strain, swelling, and sleep disturbances. Gentle, supportive positioning with specialized bolstering ensures your comfort throughout your session. Massage during pregnancy may also promote relaxation, improve circulation, reduce stress hormones, and support overall well-being as your body prepares for labor.

Postnatal massage focuses on restoring balance after childbirth. Sessions are tailored to ease muscle soreness from nursing and carrying your baby, support recovery following delivery (including cesarean section with appropriate clearance), encourage lymphatic flow, and provide much-needed time for rest and renewal. Many new mothers find that massage helps reduce stress, improve mood, and promote emotional grounding during this transitional time.

As with all sessions at Soothing Hands, your therapist will review your intake form and discuss any specific concerns to ensure your massage is both safe and personalized to your needs.

Cupping Therapy

Cupping therapy is an ancient technique that has become increasingly popular for its ability to relieve stubborn muscle tension and support the body’s natural healing process. During a session, specialized cups are placed on targeted areas of the body to create gentle suction. This negative pressure helps lift and decompress tight tissue, increase circulation, and encourage the movement of stagnant fluid.

Unlike deep tissue massage, which works by applying pressure downward into the muscle, cupping works by lifting the tissue upward. Many clients find this approach especially effective for areas that feel chronically tight, restricted, or resistant to traditional massage techniques.

Cupping may help:

  • Reduce muscle tightness and soreness
  • Improve circulation and lymphatic flow
  • Support recovery from physical activity
  • Relieve tension in the back, shoulders, and neck
  • Promote relaxation and overall well-being

It is normal for temporary circular marks to appear after treatment. These marks are not bruises and typically fade within several days as circulation improves.

Cupping can be added to any customized massage session or booked as a focused treatment. As always, your therapist will review your intake form and discuss your goals to ensure cupping is appropriate and safely integrated into your session.

Pricing

30-Minute Cupping Session (includes massage techniques) — $55

*Important Considerations

Cupping is generally safe when performed by a trained professional. However, it may not be appropriate for individuals who:

  • Are currently pregnant
  • Are taking anticoagulant (blood-thinning) medications
  • Have experienced a recent cardiac event
  • Have active fractures, sprains, or ruptured ligaments
  • Have certain medical conditions that affect skin integrity or circulation

If you have any medical concerns or questions, we encourage you to discuss them with your doctor and therapist prior to treatment. Your safety and comfort are always our priority.

Hot Stone Massage

Hot stone massage is a deeply soothing experience designed to melt tension and quiet the nervous system. Smooth, heated basalt stones are gently incorporated into your session, allowing warmth to penetrate deeply into tight muscles and areas of chronic tension.

The sustained heat encourages muscles to soften more quickly than with traditional massage alone, allowing for deeper therapeutic work without the need for excessive pressure. Many clients describe hot stone massage as grounding, comforting, and profoundly calming-especially during colder months or times of high stress.

In addition to promoting deep relaxation, the gentle warmth may help improve circulation, ease stiffness, relieve chronic muscle tension, and support overall balance in the body. The combination of therapeutic touch and radiant heat creates a treatment that feels both restorative and indulgent.

  • 60 minutes — $120
  • 90 minutes — $150

Sweet Feet

Give your feet the attention they deserve with this refreshing and restorative treatment. Sweet Feet begins with an exfoliating sugar scrub to gently buff away dry, tired skin, followed by soothing hot towels to soften and relax. A focused foot massage completes the experience, easing tension and leaving your feet feeling smooth, renewed, and deeply relaxed.

This treatment is especially beneficial for those who spend long hours standing, walking, or simply need a little extra care and comfort. Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with another service, Sweet Feet provides a calming reset from the ground up.

  • 30 minutes — $55<
  • 60 minutes — $100

Relaxation Facial

This relaxing facial treatment is designed to gently cleanse, exfoliate, and tone the skin while giving you a deeply calming experience. Warm towels, soothing touch, and a nourishing mask help restore hydration and leave your skin refreshed and glowing.

Unlike a clinical or corrective facial, this treatment is focused purely on relaxation and self-care. It also includes light hand and arm massage for a complete, tranquil experience.

Please note: Soothing Hands does not employ a licensed esthetician. This facial is provided for relaxation and cleansing purposes only. No extractions are performed.

  • 45 Minutes – $65

Chair Massage

Perfect for those short on time or looking for quick relief, chair massage focuses on the back, neck, and shoulders while you remain comfortably seated and fully clothed.

This is ideal for tension headaches, upper body tightness, workplace stress, or anyone who needs focused relief without a full table session.

For deeper, full-body therapeutic work, a traditional table massage is recommended.

  • $5 base + $1 per minute
