Melissa @ The Alignment Studio For Massage
About
I have not been on the sidelines of life. High School swimmer, competitive equestrian, weekend warrior, car & motorcycle crash survivor. There's been physical triumph & defeat. And emotional healing. I became a massage therapist and gained a lot of experience since 2003 when I was first licensed in New Hampshire. I am here helping people move easier and understand their body better thru massage. When you engage in my life & career coaching classes you have access to a proven, reliable and repeatable system to become the architect of their own life. Be sure to access Charting Your Course, your free downloadable eBook & 30 minute coaching session.

She has extensive knowledge about migraines and massage techniques to help alleviate the pain and tension in the neck and shoulders.
Highly recommend her for any specific pain issues. She has a discussion about your specific needs before she begins.
I left feeling taller!

Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
I charge the same price for Swedish & Firm pressire massages. If you need advanced techniques I just ask for a therapeutic or deep tissue session.
How did you get started in this business?
I was injured in a car accident and got the most relief & rehabilitation from a very good massage therapist.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I have been employed by physicians, chiropractors, physical therapists and high end resort spas. I also maintained my own office, work sports events and Mobile services.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
Many come to my table with a face showing all their worries and fears, their bodies bent and twisted to compensate for the pain. Their bodies are yelling at them for relief....but when our session is over everything changes and I can see it in their faces. That is what fulfills me.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Ask questions about the therapists experience and techniques. Ask them to explain the difference between Swedish massage, deep tissue or whatever other techniques they advertise and ask how their technique will address your particular needs.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
Be able to describe your pain, if you have it, when it started, what you think caused it. If you just want to relax with no "fixing" then tell the therapist. Sometimes we get tunnel vision 😉 If you want your scalp, face, feet and full body body massaged, or you don't, just tell them.
