“Ilana’s gift of healing is beyond description. Sometimes I can ask for something specific and receive just that but more often it is just magic to arrive in her sphere and receive the wisdom of her healing touch. It is more than just pain relief. It is profoundly energetic and spiritual and comes through in both private massage, yoga classes and the Art of Relaxation. Thank you.”

“You are quite simply the best massage therapist I have ever engaged with. Your techniques are intuitive, strong, but tender. You are very natural and comfortable to be with. I never feel this is a job for you, but a true calling.”
Integrative Therapeutic Massage
Integrative massage combines the techniques of multiple modalities to fit the needs of the individual in that moment. Sessions can be tailored for specific areas of tension or injury while connection with the breath and the heart allow the body to ask for what it needs and intuitively guide the work.
It is Ilana's joy to intentionally integrate the deeper work of Connective Tissue and Neuromuscular therapy with Swedish, Thai massage, and Energy work to create a fluid and holistic experience on the table. She believes in massage as a way to remind us of our innate ability to connect inwardly, listen, and heal, as well as how deserving we are of health, vitality, and happiness.
Ilana mainly uses organic jojoba oil and organic shea butter during her sessions. She also includes the option of herbal infused oils and salves that she crafts herself. Home crafted CBD Cannabis infused oil and Arnica and Cannabis infused muscle salve can be part of any session. There are no add-ons required for deep tissue work or medically specific work, either. Whatever tools are available to support the goals of the session will be included.
Prenatal Massage
These massages are tailored to the unique experience and needs of pregnant women and pregnant people’s changing body during this time, utilizing positions and techniques to offer physical and emotional support and relief. On top of the usual benefits of healing touch, receiving massage during pregnancy can help with fatigue, aches and pains associated with the readjustment of the spine and pelvis, including low back pain, as well as head aches and swelling. Care that decreases stress and supports the body’s intuitive wisdom and health is essential to navigating this right of passage in our fast paced modern times. Ilana feels it is a true privilege to hold supportive loving space during this phase of life.
