Yomassage®

Restorative Yoga + Massage Therapy + Mindfulness = Yomassage™

Sending some warm Yomi love. I've recently completed my training to become a certified Yomassage® Therapist. I'm excited to bring this new service to the area and offer this mindful practice to my clients. Yomassage®  is another way to receive therapeutic touch, it's a relaxing massage modality that I am bringing  to the city. Being, aligned with my mission, its another way to make massage accessible and affordable  to the community. 

 

THE PHILOSOPHY

Yomassage was founded on the belief that everyone deserves access to therapeutic touch. In order to make this happen, Yomassage Founders, Tiffany Ryan and Katherine Parker, created a modality in which clients can receive touch in a small group setting. In addition to offering massage at an accessible rate, Yomassage sessions appeal to more people because they are fully clothed and offered in a safe environment.

The “Yo” in Yomassage is based on the principles of yoga: focus on the breath (pranayama) and the yogic philosophy of looking within. The combination of touch, gentle stretch, and mindfulness provide an avenue for relaxation and healing.

THE PRACTICE

Yomassage Therapists are trained to make sure everyone feels comfortable and welcome throughout the entire session. When you walk in the room, you will be greeted with warm smiles. Your therapist will walk you through a series of comfortable and supported Yomassage positions that will be held for 5-10 minutes. While you are relaxing in these positions, I will guide you through breath work and mindfulness exercises as they walk around and massage you in each position. You will end the session having received a full body massage, and feeling a state of ultimate relaxation.

Yomassage sessions are kept small so each client receives individual attention from their therapist. One therapist can serve up to 5 clients in a single session, and up to 10 clients if they have an assistant. Clients can expect a warm room with mood lighting and soft music. Everything will be provided for you, so there is no need to bring anything. Yomassage sessions are suitable for all levels, no experience required.

PRICING

Sessions are generally 90 minutes long, and are kept small with a limit of 5 clients. With this small group environment it allows for each session to be custom created for the clients attending as well as allowing for plenty of hands on massage time.

Me being your Yomassage therapist I will massage and adjust you in every pose. These techniques are highly relaxing to the nervous system and can improve range of motion, increase flexibility of connective tissue and reduce compression of joint surfaces.
