CONFLUENCE THERAPEUTIC BODYWORK

Supported. Restored. Reconnected.


Each session at Confluence is built around what your body needs right now, while taking into account your health history, past experiences, and the goals that brought you here.

Not sure which session is right for you? Start by booking an Integrative Full Body Massage and complete your intake form thoroughly — I'll take it from there.

Integrative Full Body Massage ‍

This is skilled, intentional bodywork, not a preset routine. Drawing on my background in athletic training and sports medicine, along with extensive experience in restorative massage, I integrate techniques such as neuromuscular and trigger point therapy, myofascial release, manual lymphatic drainage, cupping, stretching, and mobilization.

Each session is tailored to your needs, whether you're seeking relief from persistent pain or tension, support for recovery, or simply an opportunity to rest and restore.

All therapeutic tools — including cupping and myofascial tools — are incorporated as needed at no additional charge.


Full Body Manual Lymphatic Drainage ‍

Certified in the Vodder method of MLD, I use gentle, precise, rhythmic movements to encourage lymphatic flow throughout the body. The pressure is intentionally light at times, reflecting the superficial anatomy of the lymphatic system. Firmer, more targeted pressure is used in certain areas, particularly around lymph node clusters and in the abdomen, as appropriate. First-time clients are often surprised by how deeply restorative such gentle work can feel. The slow, intentional rhythm is part of what makes this work so distinctive.

This session may benefit clients managing lymphedema or post-surgical swelling, those navigating cancer survivorship, or anyone seeking to down-regulate their nervous system. Certain medical conditions and stages of recovery require additional precautions or clearance before treatment.

Please note: Longer sessions allow for more thorough and complete lymphatic work. 90 minutes or more is recommended for a full body protocol, though meaningful work is absolutely possible in 75 minutes. For established clients, 45 and 60 minute sessions may be considered for specific needs such as post-operative recovery.

Mild and well-controlled lymphedema is welcome here. Clients requiring more intensive lymphedema management or Complete Decongestive Therapy will be referred to a Certified Lymphedema Therapist (CLT) — because getting you the right level of care matters more than keeping you on my table.


Prenatal and Postpartum Massage‍ ‍

Pregnancy and the postpartum period place extraordinary demands on the body. This session offers dedicated time for rest, relief, and restoration throughout the journey.

Drawing on my experience as a nurse caring for new mothers and their babies, I provide thoughtful, individualized bodywork adapted to your changing needs. Prenatal sessions address common discomforts such as aching hips, back tension, and swelling, with positioning and techniques tailored for comfort and safety.

Postpartum sessions focus on your recovery, easing the physical demands of feeding, holding, and carrying your baby—and offering something every new mother deserves: time devoted entirely to her own well-being.

Please note: Clients recovering from a cesarean delivery must be at least six weeks postpartum and have clearance from their healthcare provider before receiving massage.


Focused Neck, Head and Face

This dedicated head, neck, and face treatment combines therapeutic facial massage, manual lymphatic drainage, and intraoral buccal work when appropriate.

Together, these techniques address tension held in the jaw, temples, scalp, and neck—areas where muscular tightness can contribute to headaches, facial discomfort, and a persistent sense of stress. By easing tension in these interconnected regions, this work can support greater physical comfort, relaxation, and an overall sense of well-being.

All therapeutic tools — including specialized lymphatic brushes, facial cups, and gua sha — are incorporated as appropriate at no additional charge.
