Molly wanted to share with first time clients what to expect in a session with them…

Molly says:

“I’m hoping to build a partnership with my clients on the table. My goal is to find a balance between my intuition and experience as an LMT with your own felt sense of your body.

Not every approach fits every nervous system! I like to treat a bodywork session like a reading- take what resonates with you and leave the rest.

I treat feedback as an opportunity to create a positive feedback loop. As you notice a sensation of need, preference, dislike or desire in your body and are able to communicate that to me (imperfect language welcome!), I’m able to receive and honor that feedback and make a change to our session. I believe that the act of noticing, communicating, and receiving a change can be a deeply experience in and of itself on the table.”

Molly is with us on Mondays mornings and Wednesday afternoon / evenings - book now to experience her intuitive and skilled care.

Jenny Hipscher, LMT talks about the benefits of intraoral massage for Disorder. This is a service we offer and it can really be great for anyone who suffers from musculoskeletal tension in the upper body, but especially for those who are using their faces expressively a lot- actors, teachers, very long ZOOM callers, etc. !

While some folks might be wary of intra-oral we find that most of our clients are surprised to find how effective it is for reducing facial tension they didn’t even know they had.

On this
please acknowledge that we are living in a particularly challenging moment.

While this is just one example of the violence and misogyny that women and girls experience every day on a global level- and it is nothing new or shocking to us- we are being barraged with words and imagery right now that can be overwhelming. And on top of the information overload are the personal conversations that keep the focus on the men- the conspiracies, the logistics, the legalities and speculations.

Today, please give us a moment to focus on our own responses, and have space held for them.

At our clients are feeling the high stress of this moment in their bodies, minds and spirits. We continue to support them with bodywork care. And we also need to be held. 🙌🏼💕

TW: eating disorders , body dysmorphia⁠

This we would like to address how and bodywork can impact symptoms of - based on research evidence. ⁠

One significant study showed that massage and yoga, along with talk + group therapy, significantly lowered scores of eating pathology and depressive symptoms in both anorexic and bulimic patients. ⁠

Shantia Blackwell, MPH, LMT, (she/her) is a licensed therapist offering trauma-informed, heart-centered care designed to support the whole person—body, mind, and spirit. Her goal is to create a safe, nurturing space where clients feel genuinely seen, heard, and valued, believing that true healing begins with trust and compassion.

A graduate of Pacific College of Health and Science, Shantia draws from a toolkit of therapeutic modalities, including Swedish, Thai, and trigger point therapy. Her sessions blend gentle yet intentional techniques with passive stretching, supporting relief from stress, chronic pain, and muscular tension while improving mobility and restoring overall balance.

Rooted in her upbringing, Shantia understands the toll a high-speed lifestyle can take on the nervous system. Her work is grounded in the belief that the body holds wisdom—and that when given the chance to slow down and receive, healing becomes much more possible. Each session with Shantia is thoughtfully customized, guided by open communication and intuitive touch. Whether you’re seeking deep relaxation or more focused therapeutic work, Shantia’s goal is to help you feel more connected, grounded, and at home in your body while you are here
