MASSAGE/BODYWORK SERVICES

INTEGRATIVE SOMATIC MASSAGE

Welcome to The Pod's massage & bodywork services clinic, where our goal is to make sure you leave feeling better than you came. Whether you're seeking relaxation, pain relief, or stress reduction, we've got you covered. 

 

We specialize in Integrative Somatic Massage where each session blends the melting pressure of deep tissue work with the soothing, continuous lines of traditional Swedish massage. Rather than focusing solely on tight muscles or physical adhesions, this treatment is delivered with deep energetic presence to create a profoundly safe container where you feel completely seen and supported. By calming the nervous system and honoring the mind-body connection, this massage invites both your mind and body to naturally unwind, get grounded, and process accumulated emotional and physical stress.

Somatic Release: Focuses on internal physical sensations to discharge pent-up stress, trauma, and emotional patterns trapped in the muscles and fascia.

 

Integrative Therapeutic Massage: Blends multiple modalities such as Swedish, deep tissue, myofascial release, and trigger point therapy — to focus on the unique needs of your physical muscles and tissues.

 

Nervous System Shift: Moves the body safely out of "survival mode" (fight-or-flight) into deep rest and recovery.

 

 

What to Expect During a Session

Each appointment begins with an intake session to review your health history and treatment goals, and give both you and your therapist a chance to ask any clarifying questions. Our therapists will go over things such as your ADLs (activities of daily living), lifestyle, habits, medical history, surgeries, medications, previous treatments, and ask and ask about any areas of discomfort or pain. The intake may also include a posture and/or gait analysis, as well as joint range of motion testing. Your therapist will then discuss their treatment plan with you before starting the massage.

During the massage session, you can expect the following:

 

Guided Awareness - You learn to notice where you hold tension, heaviness, or have restricted movement.

 

Intentional Touch - Practitioners use slow, responsive, and intuitive touch to tailor the massage to your specific needs.

 

Emotional Processing - Mild trembling, deep sighing, crying, or even a wave of euphoria may happen naturally as tension leaves the tissues and the body processes stored emotions.

* We use natural, fragrance free, vegan Biotone massage products. Oil contains a mix of coconut oil, jojoba oil, and aloe vera.
