Integrative bodywork

What is integrative bodywork?

My integrative bodywork approach draws from a range of modalities including Swedish massage, deep tissue work, BoneWork, assisted stretching, structural integration, trigger point therapy, cupping, and myofascial release. Sessions may include movement, repositioning, or working through clothing depending on the technique. Rather than following a fixed routine, I respond to what your body is presenting in the moment.

I utilize BoneWork very often in my work. Bonework is a subtle yet powerful form of bodywork that brings attention to the body's underlying structure. Rather than focusing only on muscles, this work engages the bones and joints, which are the framework that everything else organizes around. When the body feels supported at this deeper structural level, muscles often release naturally and movement can become easier and more integrated.

60 minutes targeted bodywork

~ $140

Whether this is your first time receiving bodywork or you're a seasoned receiver, the 60 minute session is a great way to get meaningful work done in a shorter amount of time. During this session I will focus on 1–2 areas of the body that are asking for attention — such as the shoulders, back, hips, legs, or arms.

This option is a great introduction for new clients or for those who want targeted work on specific issues without committing to a longer session.

Please note: This is not a typical spa-style full body massage. I practice focused, therapeutic bodywork, which means we will spend most or all of the session working with a small number of areas rather than moving through the entire body. Much of our session will involve slow and intentional pressure, and prolonged holds.

Bookings can be made up to 24 hours in advance and I will collect payment after the session.

90 minutes expanded bodywork

~ $180

The 90-minute session allows for more spacious, in-depth work while still maintaining a focused approach. During this time I will concentrate on 2–3 areas of the body that are asking for attention, such as the shoulders, back, hips, legs, or arms.

With the additional time, we're really able to slow down, explore patterns more thoroughly, and allow the body more time to respond to the work. This session is ideal for clients who want deeper, more attentive work on specific areas or who enjoy a more unhurried pace.

Bookings can be made up to 24 hours in advance and I will collect payment after the session.

120 minutes deep dive bodywork

~ $230

The 120 minute session allows time to slow down, work through multiple layers, and follow connections between different areas of the body. During this session I will concentrate on 3–4 areas of the body that are asking for attention, such as the shoulders, back, hips, legs, or arms.

This option is ideal for clients who want deeper therapeutic work, are working through chronic patterns, or simply prefer a slower, more expansive session. I would not necessarily recommend this to first-time bodywork receivers; try a shorter session to make sure you feel comfortable on the table.

specialty services

60 minutes arms & hands massage

~ $180

We use our hands for everything, so they're naturally under a lot of strain if not taken care of. You may experience shooting pains in your wrists or hands. This is especially true for climbers, artists, musicians, and skilled workers. I will do detailed work on your forearms, biceps, triceps, deltoids, and hands to revitalize your arms and get you feeling brand new.

This is a specialty massage and has a fixed price of $180. The added price accommodates for the detailed work I will perform, which requires more energy and strain on my own body. Please let me know if you have any questions about my prices.

Bookings can be made up to 24 hours in advance and I will collect payment after the session.

60 minutes hip flexors and glutes massage

~ $180

So many of us sit for most of the day, causing our hip flexors to be in a chronically contracted state, which can lead to pain while walking, standing, or laying down. Trauma and societally imposed feelings of shame around the pelvic region causes many of us to unconsciously tense this area perpetually. I will work the sides and front of your hips, as well as your glutes to get your pelvis feeling loose and free again.

This is a specialty massage and has a fixed price of $180. The added price accommodates for the detailed work I will perform, which requires more energy and strain on my own body. Please let me know if you have any questions about my prices.

Bookings can be made up to 24 hours in advance and I will collect payment after the session.

60 minutes face, head & jaw massage

~ $180

I will do detailed work on everything above your shoulders, bringing relief to your jaws, forehead, face, scalp, and neck.

This is a specialty massage and has a fixed price of $180. The added price accommodates for the detailed work I will perform, which requires more energy and strain on my own body. Please let me know if you have any questions about my prices.

workshop

Massage basics workshop

~ $260

We all deserve to have access to basic knowledge of healing practices without having to complete a course at an institution. This workshop will teach you the basics of massage safety and technique, some basic anatomy, and how to massage from your own home without any special equipment.

This workshop is meant for 2 people. Perfect for those wanting to care for their parents; couples; or friends who enjoy massaging. I will provide all sheets, oils, and tools needed. You only need to bring yourselves.

I will perform demos on both people, so in addition to learning, you will also receive bodywork (which is essential to learning!)

The cost of this workshop is $260. Payment instructions will be sent via email.

If you are interested in more in-depth education about massage therapy, I recommend McKinnon Body Therapy Center for classes.

Disclaimer: I am not a massage instructor. This workshop does not count towards any credits or certification, and Gentle Tiger Bodywork is not liable for injuries sustained during or after the workshop. This is an informal teaching environment meant to enrich the healing skillset of my community.

energy work

30 minute cupping session with reiki

~ $35

Cupping is an ancient form of traditional Chinese medicine which utilizes vacuums to create suction and increase blood flow to areas of tension. Cupping is an excellent way to increase range of motion and reduce pain. It is suitable for most people, but certain cases such as active cancer, anemia, or severe chronic disease may pose some risks. Please read the booking page thoroughly to make sure this modality is safe for you.

We will start with an intake to determine where the cups should be placed. While the cups are doing their work, I will perform reiki to aid in the energy flow inside your body.

Bookings can be made up to 24 hours in advance and I will take payment after the session.

60 minutes reiki session

~ $66 - $111

I will use an energy work modality known as reiki, which is an energetic massage that does not involve the same degree of touch as a regular massage. You can learn more about my reiki training and background on my "about me" page. Using universal life force from nature, I will channel energy to energetically imbalanced areas of your body to aid in emotional and physical healing.

This is an excellent option for anyone who is unable to receive touch for whatever reason; feeling disconnected from their body or spirituality; feeling imbalanced; experiencing strong depression or anxiety; or just looking to explore different modalities of healing. One must be open to the healing potential of energy work before receiving it.

Bookings can be made up to 24 hours in advance and I will collect payment after the session.

90 minutes reiki session

~ $99 - $144

I will use an energy work modality known as reiki, which is an energetic massage that does not involve the same degree of touch as a regular massage.

sliding scale offerings

60 min bodywork session

~ $90 - $150

The 60-min bodywork session is a good slot for new or seasoned receivers. In this space, we tend to the areas that have been calling for attention (for example: your left hip that's been hurting for a few weeks and the pain in your neck you've been noticing throughout the work day etc.)

During the session, I may use modalities including Thai massage, Swedish and Deep tissue, cupping, gua sha, and assisted stretching.

Please note: This is not a typical spa-style 60 min full body massage. In this time frame, we will spend most or all of the session working with a small number of areas rather than moving through the entire body. Much of our session will involve slow and intentional pressure.

90 min bodywork session

~ $120 - $190

The 90-min bodywork session allows for more space to connect with more areas of the body, whether that is focusing on 2-3 areas of your choosing, or experiencing a general full body flow.

During the session, I may use modalities including Thai massage, Swedish and deep tissue, cupping, gua sha, heated tools, and assisted stretching.

120 min bodywork session

~ $170 - $250

The 120-min bodywork session (my personal fave) is the best option for a slowed down, full-bodied flow. Additionally, there is openness for tending to all of the areas which could always use a bit more love: hands and fingers, feet and toes, joints, face, and skull. In this special container, the hope is to give your body a full reset while incorporating specific areas of focus.

During the session, I may use modalities including Swedish and Deep tissue, cupping, gua sha, assisted stretching, and acupressure.

30 min cupping + (feet/hands/skull)

~ $35 - $50

Cupping is a treatment method in which a cup or a jar is put onto the skin to cause local congestion through a negative pressure, and then releasing it. In our session, we will use plastic cups and create the negative pressure through a hand pump. Cups will be placed after a short warming massage, and will not be left on for more than 10-15 minutes at a time.

While the cups are on, I invite the option for intentional time for feet, hands, or skull.

The purpose and use of cupping is meant to clear stagnation in the body, which can feel like pain, knots, or congestion, and promote a return to your natural flow.

Cupping contraindications:
  • Blood thinners
  • Bleeding disorder (leukemia, anemia, thrombosis, etc)
  • Broken skin, sunburnt, or ulcerated skin
  • Local edema or directly large blood vessels (including spider veins)

30 min assisted stretching

~ $35 - $55

I recommend this option for people who have 1 specific area that they would like to address. For example: neck, shoulders and arms, glutes, etc. This may also be a good option to try if you are curious about assisted stretching.

My approach is goal-oriented, collaborative, and emergent - guided by your goals. These sessions will focus on deep, intentional breathing as I move you through a series of tailored stretches to address your needs.

I will start with a consultation and check in about how your body is feeling to guide the work for the session. The work may include a combination of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF), joint mobilization, Thai massage, and therapeutic myofascial release. Based on what we discover together, I can advise some practices and stretches for you to take home.

*Please wear non-restrictive clothes that you feel comfortable moving in.*

60 min assisted stretching

~ $60 - $110

I recommend this option for people who have more than 1 focus area (ex. Glutes/hips and arms), want a deeper dive into the upper body or lower body, or would like to try a general full body stretch. If you are unsure what exactly is a priority for you, I recommend doing a full body stretch to discover what may be most pressing. The stretch will always be tailored to you!

specialty services

60 minute arms and hands

~ $150

We use our hands for so many things throughout the day, so naturally, you may start to notice some strain. It may come in the form of shooting pains, numbness, or vibrating sensations in your wrists, hands, or even fingers. In this specialized service, I will focus along the continuity of your arms, starting from the chest and working towards the fingers.

This is a specialty massage and has a fixed price of $150. The added price accommodates for the detailed work I will perform. Please let me know if you have any questions about my prices.

Bookings can be made up to 24 hours in advance and I will collect payment after the session.
