Services

Therapeutic Massage

Our therapeutic massage focuses on treating specific musculoskeletal issues through deep tissue work and targeted techniques. This service addresses chronic pain, injury recovery, and posture-related conditions using customized treatment plans. Clients receive both immediate relief and long-term benefits through combined in-clinic sessions and at-home care guidance.

CranioSacral Therapy

This gentle, hands-on treatment addresses restrictions in the craniosacral system to alleviate headaches, neck pain, and nervous system disorders. Therapists use subtle manipulations to improve cerebrospinal fluid flow and release tension patterns. The non-invasive approach benefits clients seeking relief from chronic conditions and stress-related ailments.

Graston Technique

Using specialized stainless steel instruments, this technique breaks down scar tissue and fascial restrictions to restore mobility. Therapists apply controlled microtrauma to affected areas, promoting healing and reducing chronic inflammation. The method effectively treats sports injuries, repetitive strain injuries, and post-surgical adhesions.

Myofascial Cupping

This treatment uses suction cups to decompress soft tissues, increase circulation, and reduce muscle tension. Therapists apply silicone or glass cups to target areas of tightness and restricted movement. The therapy benefits clients with chronic pain, postural imbalances, and restricted range of motion.

Prenatal Massage

Specifically designed for expectant mothers, this service addresses pregnancy-related discomforts using specialized positioning and techniques. Therapists focus on reducing swelling, relieving muscle tension, and improving circulation while ensuring safety throughout all trimesters. The treatment supports overall wellness during pregnancy and postpartum recovery.

It's hard to give a review of the actual massage experience because I didn't get one, couldn't actually even get in the door with an appointment. But I thought I might share what did happen to me because it was very strange. I moved to a new area of town so I googled a massage place that was nearby and found Alleviate. Good reviews and it even had the "Ad" tag next to the listing so I figured it would be a good bet. I tried using the online form but nearest appointment was Aug 2 but said "contact to book". I phoned and spoke to reception. Said I was interested in booking a massage. She asked which

Sonya's knowledge of the muscle and skeletal system is unequaled in massage therapy. She knows exactly how to tackle pain, restriction and discomfort and always gets a good result. With her help I'm a lot more active and fit then I'd be without her.

I started working with Alleviate Massage staff with a laundry list of injuries, ailments and a beaten body from years of professional sport. Sonya is extremely thorough in gaining an understanding of each… issue, explaining a repair program and executing using a variety of techniques with great success including regaining and improving shoulder mobility, pain free from years of rotator cuff issues as well as range of motion work and regaining feeling back into knees beaten by repair surgeries. I also explored FST (Fascia Stretch Therapy) with Lindsay who runs through the same processes and

Sonya is amazing! She is so friendly and knowledgeable and she is always pursuing extra education to improve her practice. I will never go to another massage therapist - it would be impossible! When you go to Sonya you can tell she is tailoring her treatment to exactly what you say you're experiencing as well as what she "finds" with her hands when she works on you. It's incredible. There is absolutely nothing generic or cookie-cutter about it, as her technique even differs every single time I go because every time I go my symptoms and my body are a little bit different. I can't say enough good

Sonya is the best massage therapist I have ever found! Like many others, I followed her from her previous place of work because she is exceptional at what she does. She is warm professional, highly skilled and always makes you feel that she cares about you and your concerns. She is takes the time to ensure that she understands the concerns you express. From stretches to improving body mechanics, I always learn something new every time I go see her.
