Sooth the mind, body, and soul with the ultimate realignment. Learn More

Fertility Massage

This session is for those returning after their initial Fertility Massage consultation and session. Sessions will continue to include a castor oil pack on the abdomen for cleansing and dissolving adhesions and cysts, and cleansing the digestive system, foot reflexology, craniosacral holds, relaxing massage, deep external pelvic work to break up adhesions and increase blood flow, aromatherapy, and visualizations. Any additional consultation needed will be provided on fertility awareness and timing, and instruction on how to continue conception support at home.

This protocol benefits all bodies involved in conception and will be modified for non- menstruating people

This session is also for those looking to increase fertility for creative or project based reasons and not requiring a consultation.

Craniosacral Therapy + Reiki

In these sessions, our therapists communicate with your body to help re-establish healthy movement in the bones and cerebrospinal fluid. This practice is a non-invasive form of bodywork and is much different than massage. Using light pressure we hold various areas on the body and tune into the subtle rhythm of the fluid within the system. This service is all about creating safety within your body and will quiet the mind, reduce stress and anxiety and release fascial restrictions. Learn More

Healing Tools

In our therapeutic massage sessions we use an array of western and eastern tools and techniques. Some of the tools we use are add-on services and others are included in sessions with your enthusiastic consent!

  • Gua sha is a traditional Chinese healing technique that involves scraping the skin's surface with a smooth-edged tool to promote circulation, relieve muscle tension, and improve overall health.

  • Cupping therapy is a traditional Chinese practice that involves placing (glass, silicone, or plastic) cups on the skin to create a suction effect, which stimulates blood flow, relieve muscle tension, and promotes healing.

  • Aromatherapy is a holistic healing practice that uses aromatic essential oils extracted from plants to promote physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

  • Herbalism is a holistic healthcare practice that uses herbs and botanical remedies such as tinctures, salves, and teas to address various health issues, guided by a clinical herbalist's assessment and consultation with clients.

FAQs

  • We are intuitive in our approach and have been practicing using our arms, elbows, feet, hands, & forearms for a long time. After a while of doing massage you become very in tune with where people generally hold tightness. Trigger points (the "knots" you refer to) are mapped out throughout the body. It is common that people have trigger points in the same places. Knowing the trigger point pain patterns allow the therapist to know the exact place that your pain is coming from. We encourage you to research pain patterns to be more effective with self-massage.

  • Undressing for a massage session allows the therapist to use topical cream, oil, or lotion to create less friction on the skin, allow smoother transitions, and get full efficiency out of the session. Generally, we encourage our clients to be in their underwear. Please undress to your comfort level. Draping the body is required by law. The only thing that will be exposed will be the arms, legs, and back! I have had people undress all the way and people that leave all of their clothes on. It is all up to you! We are professionals at what we do. You are in good hands.

  • Frequency of massage will vary from person to person. For people that are not experiencing any particular pain, we recommend getting massage every 3-4 weeks. For specific ailments massage is recommended more frequently at first (once a week for 3-6 weeks) this allows the muscles to memorize that being in a relaxed state is how they're supposed to be. Over a period of sessions we will reevaluate and recommend a maintenance schedule that fits your needs. Always listen to your body. If you are sore, stressed, or in pain... you probably should get massage!

  • Thai massage focuses on balancing energy pathways and opening up space in the body through compression, acupressure and stretching. Thai Massage in the west is known as "Yoga done to you". Tha Massage is much different from other massage modalities. In Swedish, Deep Tissue and other "western" massage modalities our focus is to target areas in the body that are are ailing you on a very physical level. Thai Massage is an ancient practice that works on all layers of the body, physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Wether or not you choose Thai or Therapeutic Massage at True Bleu, we will incorporate physical therapy techniques and help curate a unique approach for your needs. Read more about Thai Massage

  • Every person has different sensitivities. During a massage session you may be surprised by areas that are sensitive to the touch. To maximize benefit of each session, open communication between the client and therapist plays a pivotal role. Generally, we work to the "edge" of your comfort level, but it isn't necessary to "dig in" all the time. Working to this edge ensures that you remain in normal breathing patterns and your muscles stay relaxed while being treated. Your therapist will be checking in with you to make sure the right level of pressure is being applied. Please tell your therapist if you are uncomfortable at any time and adjustments will be made!

  • A 50% fee is applied to any person who does not give us 24 hours notice to reschedule an appointment. If you no show for a session the day of your appointment you are charged the full service fee. If you reschedule last minute frequently you will be charged the full service fee and may not be able to return to True Bleu Healing Arts. Our cancellation policy is to ensure that our therapists are paid and their time is respected. Please give us as much notice as possible if you are sick, need to cancel, or reschedule sessions. We appreciate your consideration. Read all of our policies here

  • Massage should not ever be considered a substitute for medical examination, diagnosis, or treatment. Please see a qualified medical specialist for any mental or physical ailment you experience. Massage practitioners/bodyworkers are not qualified to perform spinal or skeletal adjustments, diagnose or treat physical and mental illness, or prescribe any medications; nothing said during the session(s) should be interpreted as such!
