You do not need to know which technique to book. That is something we can work out together.
Before I start your treatment, I want to know what is physically bothering you and how you would like it to change. I may look at how you are moving, ask questions or check what seems related to the complaint. Then I will explain what I want to work on and why. You can agree, ask questions or change the plan.
The treatment is not a fixed routine that I use on everyone. I use the techniques that make sense for the treatment goals we have agreed on. I normally work through one area at a time and adjust the treatment as I learn more.
I like open communication. Tell me if the pressure needs to change, if something is uncomfortable or if part of the treatment is especially helpful. You can talk during the treatment or stay quiet. That is your choice.
When the hands-on part of the treatment is finished, I reassess the original complaint, movement or finding. We want to know whether the treatment made a useful difference and what, if anything, should happen next.
Massage Therapy does not diagnose medical conditions or replace medical care. If something is outside my scope or needs medical clearance, I will tell you.
I bring the massage table, clean linens and treatment supplies. You need to provide a clear area of about 6 by 9 feet, access to a bathroom so I can wash my hands, and any parking instructions I may need.
Your home does not have to look like a spa. Toys and ordinary clutter do not bother me. Pets can stay if they are not too demanding. Children or family members may occasionally interrupt. If you are comfortable with it, I am comfortable with it.
You can play your own music and set the room the way you like it. A room temperature around 75°F is generally comfortable for treatment.
How booking works
1. Call or text me with your location, the days or times that may work, and a short explanation of what you are looking for.
2. I will confirm whether I serve your location, discuss the appointment and tell you about any travel fee before we book.
3. Before I arrive, clear the treatment space and send any parking or access instructions.
4. I set up, complete the appointment and pack everything away when we are finished. You do not have to drive home afterward.
I hold a Bachelor of Physical Education and have worked in Massage Therapy for more than 30 years. Over that time I have worked in different kinds of practices, including operating a large multidisciplinary clinic. SoFlo Mobile Massage is the way I practise now: one client at a time, in the client's own space.
My approach is fairly simple. I establish a baseline, form a working idea about what may be contributing to your complaint, treat, and then reassess. I do not pretend to know everything before I begin. Your body's response gives us more information, and the treatment can change as we go.
I also teach continuing education and speak to Massage Therapists about treatment and professional practice. Teaching keeps me curious. It also makes me keep asking whether what I am saying is useful, honest and supported by the evidence we have.

I do not charge separately for the techniques I use during the appointment. You are reserving my time and the treatment we agree on, not buying add-ons from a technique menu.

What to expect from an in-home massage appointment.
No. I bring the table, clean linens and the supplies I use. I need a clear area of about 6 by 9 feet and access to wash my hands.
About 6 by 9 feet is usually enough for the table and for me to move around it safely.
No. Tell me what is bothering you and what you want to change. I will assess, explain the treatment I am proposing and work with you on the plan.
Yes. You can talk or stay quiet. I only ask that you tell me when pressure, position or technique needs to change.
That is usually fine. Pets may stay if they are not too demanding. Family members or children may occasionally interrupt. If you are comfortable with it, I am comfortable with it.
Payment is due at the time of service. I accept Zelle, credit cards and cash.
Call or text 561-460-6132 with your location, possible days and times, and a brief note about what you want help with.
