Massage Therapy

Soft Spaces by Janie

As a professional dancer, I’ve always been fascinated by the body - its muscles, skeletal system, and the many ways we can ease tension and restore balance. This curiosity led me to train in Swedish massage, deep tissue therapy, and, more recently, Thai bodywork.

I am passionate about supporting people to feel better in their bodies, encouraging vitality and well-being, while continuing to grow as a therapist — there is always more to discover.

My personal style weaves together deep tissue, stretching, and rhythmic rocking — all catalysts to open the body, soften the nervous system, and restore equilibrium. For me, massage is tender: it’s about creating space for the body to drop, to relax, and to remember its natural ease. This isn’t always easy, but it is always worthwhile.

Healing and nervous system work call for inward attention. Saying yes to a massage is an investment in yourself: a chance to care for your body, invite release and pleasure, and invite your parasympathetic nervous system to soften and settle.

To hold space for you, I also listen deeply to myself. My aim is always to create a soft, steady space where you can truly rest.

What to Expect

Every session begins with a conversation about how you're feeling and what your body needs that day. My approach is intuitive and responsive. Rather than following a fixed routine, I draw from different techniques to create a treatment that feels supportive, grounding, and right for you.This is your time to slow down, release tension, and give yourself space to breathe.
