Massage Therapy at therakneads

The perfect blend of science, skill, compassion & art

There is no such thing as a cookie-cutter massage at our wellness center. Whether you want to reduce stress or pain, increase sports performance, recover after surgery, or simply feel more connected, cared for and at peace—our massage therapists make it their mission to help you transcend your wellness goals.

If you have specific aches and pains that need to be addressed, your therapist will discuss your concerns, health conditions and treatment plan in a thorough intake prior to your service. And since we know wellness transformation doesn’t end at the treatment room —we also take the time afterward to educate you on your unique circumstances and provide you with a plan of action so you have the tools to continue progressing between sessions.

Be sure to check out our Service Upgrades, all very reasonably priced and a great way to enhance your overall experience.
