With 14+ years of experience as a massage therapist, I specialize in therapeutic bodywork that honors the mind-body connection. My approach blends deep tissue techniques with flowing, intentional touch to release stubborn adhesions and chronic holding patterns.

Through skilled palpation, therapeutic pressure, and moments of stillness, I create space for your body to relax, let go, and reconnect with itself. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, recovering from injury or carrying tension; my sessions offer a safe grounding experience where therapeutic work and deep relaxation meet.

Client Testimonials

“I was lucky to have met Tessa in 2020 as I was recovering from cancer treatments. She is heaven-sent! I have relied on her services all through these years. Her techniques truly help me care for my body to stay relaxed and focused. You have to meet her and have her care for your body!!”

“I am 71 years old and I've been going to massage therapists for decades because of problems with my back. Of all the therapists who have worked on my back, Tessa is the best! Even without any input from me, she always finds the areas that need the most work and by the time she's finished, I feel much better! I've been seeing her now for about 15 years!”

“Tessa is amazing. She truly listens and tailors each session to what my body needs. We usually incorporate cupping, which has helped relieve my pain in areas that can’t tolerate deep tissue pressure. Her work is such a great balance of focused, therapeutic care and deep relaxation. I always leave feeling better than when I walked in. Highly recommend!”
