OFFERINGS
None of our work together should hurt. I address each layer of tissue—from the outermost to the deepest— at the rate that your body lets me in. By working with your nervous system and fascia, we are able to get to very sensitive depths without creating pain. It is essential to me that we listen to your body’s “yes’s” and “no’s” while you are on my table.
All of my work comes from a trauma-informed and body-neutral approach, and is queer & trans affirming. My practice is heavily influenced by techniques from myofascial facilitation, Trager, visceral manipulation, craniosacral, unwinding, and structural decompression.
Scar WorkScars big and small can have a profound effect on the way our systems function—our fascia, lymphatic and cardiovascular systems are all impacted when scar tissue forms. I use a gentle, non-invasive approach to treat scar tissue that has formed due to injuries, surgeries, or inflammation.
Intra-Oral MassageIntra-oral massage (meaning work done inside the mouth) can be incredibly helpful for headaches, TMJ issues, neck pain, ear pain, and so much more. I often incorporate this into treatment sessions—with your permission, of course!
Prenatal & Postpartum Massage (for pregnant and recently pregnant bodies) My work as a doula in years past inspired me to become a massage therapist. This gentle, supportive massage helps to address the monumental changes that pregnant bodies endure, and can safely treat injuries or facilitate relief for sore and tired muscles.
CBD Oil MassageBy adding CBD oil to a session, we can coax tight muscles into relaxation far more easily, and ease soreness in muscles and joints. Topical CBD is non-psychoactive (meaning it won’t get you high). I use a high-quality, full-spectrum oil made locally by a female-owned company.
Breast/Chest Massage Attention to this complex area requires special training, and can help with a variety of issues such as promoting lactation, reducing engorgement and treating clogged ducts, reduction of scar tissue from surgery or injury, swelling and pain due to hormonal changes or newly developing breast tissue, and reduction of back pain. This is not just for people who have breasts!
Lymphatic FacilitationThis technique is used for speeding the healing process of recent injuries, reducing swelling and bruising, and improving the function of the lymph and nervous systems. Regular lymphatic facilitation treatments are excellent for treating insomnia. I incorporate this into many of my treatment massages. *** Please note that I am not able to treat Primary Lymphedema.

ABOUT ME
Sarah Hopkins, LMT MA60848755
Every single person is capable of and deserving of healing. Long before studying massage, my time as a doula and my background in dance instilled me with a sense of awe at the body’s inherent wisdom and incredible power. We human beings are so fragile, yet so resilient!
I specialize in subtle, pain-free treatment work, following where the physical and energetic bodies take me in order to work with the whole being. There is something sacred and rich in the stillness before change. I provide a container for the body to have those still moments, to pause and listen, and to know itself better.
Whether you seek treatment for an injury or chronic issue, or you desire a pause from the pressures of daily life, I would be honored to join you on your journey.

Sanitation and MaskingI wear a mask during all sessions. I keep a high-quality air purifier running in my space and sanitize thoroughly between appointments. Masking is optional for patients, though may be required again based on COVID numbers in our area. Many of the people who come to me are immune compromised and it is important to me to reduce the risk of infection from COVID, flu and other illnesses.
All services require a credit card to guarantee an appointment. You will not be charged automatically except in the case of a late cancellation or no-show. Payment is due at the end of each appointment.
You may choose to use your card on file or another accepted form of payment at that time. Gratuity is accepted, though not expected.
PaymentsI do not bill medical insurance directly. However, I am happy to email you a superbill to submit to your insurance company. Depending on the insurance, you may receive up to 90% reimbursement of the cost of your appointment.
Please contact your insurance company to find out about your reimbursement rate as I do not have access to this information. Fees posted are for payment at the time of service; sliding scale and packages cannot be applied to insurance or PIP claims.
