Cuyahoga Massage Therapy

11/21/2025

Hi there!

In case you missed it, Cuyahoga Massage Therapy has officially moved into a new office! I’m excited to share this fresh, calming space with Palm Wellness (https://palmwellnessgroup.com/) inside the Helwig Whistle Shop in Berea, just five minutes from the previous location.

New Address:
Cuyahoga Massage Therapy
599 West Bagley Road, Suite 565
Berea, OH 44017

The office is located on the second floor, and an elevator is available for anyone who prefers or needs it. The space is clean, quiet, and intentionally designed to support relaxation from the moment you arrive.

When you reach the second floor, whether by stairs or elevator, simply turn left. You’ll find the office down the hall on the right.

Restroom Info:
There is a restroom located on the second floor near the stairs. Since there isn’t one directly next to the office, I recommend arriving a few minutes early if you think you’ll need to use it before your session. If the restroom door is locked, a key is available inside the office on the white cubby bookshelf.

Shared Space Courtesy:
This office is a shared environment similar to my previous location, but without a separate waiting room. To help maintain a peaceful atmosphere for everyone, please keep your voice low and silence your phone upon entering.

Refreshments:
Complimentary coffee, tea, and water are available if you’d like to enjoy something before or after your session.

A Quick Request: Please Check Your Contact Information

It’s very important that I have accurate and up-to-date contact information on file in case I need to reach you. Keeping your email and phone number current also ensures you receive appointment reminders and important updates without interruption.

You can easily access your profile through Square by entering your phone number to log in. Once logged in, click the three lines in the upper right corner to view your account. From there, you can review your contact details to make sure everything is correct. This is also where you can make any changes to upcoming appointments, if needed.

Thank you for taking a moment to keep your information current. This helps everything run smoothly on my end and supports a better experience for you.

I look forward to seeing you at your next appointment!

Hi there!

I wanted to share a quick update with you as we're already half way through August.

While the downstairs space in my building will still be undergoing renovations at some point, no contractors have been scheduled yet. For now, things remain quiet — which means it’s a great time to book a session before any changes begin.

I’m still keeping an eye out for a new location (ideally still in Berea), and I’ll be sure to keep you in the loop as things unfold.

Your continued support means so much to me during this in-between time, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to keep working with you at 429.

7 Ways to Get the Most Out of Your Massage
(aka: How to make your body say “THANK YOU”)

1. Hydrate Like It's Your Job (But Not Right Before)
Start sipping the day before—your muscles will love it.
But don’t chug a gallon right before walking in unless you like bathroom breaks mid-massage. 🙃
...And maybe don’t roll in after scarfing a double cheeseburger.

2. Be Fashionably Early
Give yourself a few extra minutes to settle in, breathe, use the bathroom, and ease out of “go mode.”
This gives your body (and brain) a chance to realize it’s about to enter relaxation territory.
Walking in late and flustered? Not exactly the vibe we’re going for.

3. Speak up!
Too much pressure? Not enough? Cold feet? Weird crick in your shoulder?
TELL ME. I’m not psychic (tragically), but I am very good at tailoring your session when you speak up.

4. Holding your breath = holding tension.
This is not a tax audit. Breathe. Let your belly rise. Exhale with a sigh.
Even make little “oooh” or “that’s the spot” noises. It’s all part of the release.

5. Take Your Sweet Time After
Don’t hop off the table like it’s hot lava.
Stretch, sip some water, enjoy the warm towel, and float back to earth slowly.

✨ Want to take your bliss to the next level?
Add the “Deep Sleep” add-on next time—15 undisturbed minutes of pure horizontal heaven post-massage. No talking. No pressure. Just rest.

6. Massage isn’t a pit stop. It’s the main event.
This is not the time to run errands, reorganize your closet, or hit leg day at the gym.
Your body needs to marinate in the calm. Go home. Be horizontal. Watch clouds. Hydrate. Maybe nap.

7. Be Fresh, Not Funky
A quick shower beforehand helps warm up muscles and keeps things, um… pleasant.
Especially in summer sandal season — if your feet have been out and about living their best dusty lives, please give them a rinse. Crunchy toes = skipped footwork. No exceptions. ☺️

Whether it’s your first massage or your fiftieth, use these tips help make every session feel like exactly what your body and mind needed.

Stay soft,

Happy Wednesday!

If you tried to respond to my last email, you might have noticed that the button linked to my schedule instead of the feedback form. Here's the correct one — it should work fine now:

Thanks for your patience, and I appreciate your input!

I’d love to know what you look for or enjoy most in a massage experience.

For me, it all starts with the space. First impressions matter, and I always appreciate a clean, inviting, and relaxing room. A clean environment ensures that hygiene and safety measures are in place, and I also appreciate a thoughtfully curated, clutter-free space. These details reflect the therapist’s professionalism and care, enhancing the overall experience.

The second most important factor for me is communication. I value when my therapist is open to feedback throughout the session, asking about areas I’d like worked on or how the pressure feels. Their openness to feedback shows they care about my comfort and helps build trust, ensuring each session can be tailored to my needs. I believe that every great massage is often a result of open communication.

So, what do you enjoy or look for in a massage session? I’d love to hear your feedback, even if it’s something you’ve experienced with another therapist or details you tend to notice.

I’ve created an anonymous form where you can share your thoughts. If you'd like, you can include your name, and I’ll make sure to consider your feedback for our future sessions together.

Happy New Year

I can't believe how quickly time passes; here we are at the start of another year! It’s been great to return to my old stomping grounds at 429. I've enjoyed seeing both familiar and new faces. :)

With the new year upon us, there's often a surge of energy toward fresh beginnings.

If one of your goals this year is to experience less pain, stress, and overwhelm, incorporating regular massage into your routine could be a game changer.

So, how can a consistent massage routine actually help?

First, it’s about establishing a sense of control, predictability, and stability in your life. When life feels chaotic, having a regular massage session to look forward to can significantly reduce stress and anxiety.

Second, consistency is key when it comes to massage. While a single session can certainly provide relief, an ongoing routine makes a more substantial difference. Massage is not a quick fix; it is part of your journey toward feeling better. Regular sessions enable you to experience deeper and longer-lasting benefits, especially when combined with other healthy lifestyle choices. It all adds up.

Think of each massage as hitting the “reset” button for both your mind and body. Even committing to just one session a month can help you rest, restore balance, and ensure that you feel your best as you focus on your health and wellness throughout 2025.

I have a few spots available this month, including Saturday the 18th. You can easily check my schedule and book an appointment on my website.

Remember: You are the medicine.
💜
