Announcement re: Callie's rates
Callie’s skills (and session options) got an upgrade!
Hi there!
We’re excited to share some news with you today!
Our incredible trauma-informed massage therapist, Callie, has recently completed training in two transformative approaches to healing.
First, Callie is now trained in John F. Barnes’ Myofascial Release, a powerful method that gently releases long-held tension and restrictions in the fascia (your body's connective tissue). Myofascial Release is one of the most effective ways we’ve found to reduce chronic pain and restore ease and mobility in the body. It’s been a cornerstone of my own practice with clients and I’m so glad Callie now offers this deeply therapeutic work.
She’s also recently completed training in applying Polyvagal Theory to the massage treatment space, which means she now brings an even deeper awareness of what’s happening in your nervous system during a session. This allows her to tailor her touch and presence to what your body truly needs in the moment—especially helpful for anyone experiencing stress, the after-effects of trauma, or emotional overload.
With this expanded skillset comes a few important updates:
🌀 Callie is now offering Myofascial Release as an optional add-on to any massage session. You can now choose to incorporate 15 or 30 minutes of this technique into your session, depending on what your body needs. We offer this because Myofascial Release takes time, and can eat into your massage time. So while you can still request MFR in your normal massage session (how you spend your time is completely up to you), this add-on option gives you the choice to intentionally designate time for Myofascial Release, while still getting the full time for your massage. You’ll see these options available when you book a session with her via the website.
💵 Her rates are increasing slightly to reflect her new training and the greater value she now brings to sessions. Her rate is increasing by $5/hour, and this is reflected in all of the session lengths she offers.
60-minute sessions are now $90 (previously $85)
75-minute sessions are now $112 (previously $106)
90-minute sessions are now $135 (previously $127)
Booking an add-on of Myofascial Release (MFR) of 15 or 30 minutes will add $22 or $45, respectively, using that same rate of $90/hour. We are intentional about not charging higher rates for advanced modalities such as MFR, so that clients never feel that we are trying to “upsell” them when we recommend it, but rather can trust that it is purely out of our honest professional opinion.
This shift supports Callie in continuing her education and offering the most attuned, effective care possible.
✨ If you’ve been feeling stuck in your healing journey or are just ready to go deeper, now is a great time to book with Callie and experience what this next level of support feels like.
With care,
