Doula Massage, Prenatal and Postpartum Care
Self-care is a must during pregnancy, and my sessions always include self-care training. Intuitive massage is perfect for moms before, during, and after pregnancy so you get the relief you need to feel your best and be empowered to care well for yourself and your baby.
Insomnia and Mood Swings
Physical or emotional trauma, post-surgery issues, and physical injuries can upset the delicate balance of sleep patterns and emotional wellbeing. Intuitive massage sessions restore that balance so you begin to see improvement right away.
Chronic Pain Mobility
Chronic pain is no joke. We believe you. We listen. We help you make gradual changes so relief will come faster and mobility will increase. Massage therapy also increases your confidence and overall sense of wellbeing.
You'll get relief, but we don't stop there.
Every massage includes a FREE aftercare session.
When you come to us for a therapeutic massage, we spend time with you. We listen. We maintain your privacy and comfort.
And then, guess what?
We do NOT send you home empty-handed. We teach you how to change your daily habits and begin to make improvements. The next time you feel discomfort, you'll have the tools you need to feel better.
What's so special about intuitive massage?
During a massage, your muscles talk. I listen.
Intuitive massage allows me to discern what each muscle needs as I help you find relief.
From experience, I've learned how to interpret how muscles respond to massage. I discern energy levels, root issues, and imbalances during your therapeutic massage and make adjustments as I go to not only provide immediate relief but also to have the most significant impact on your long-term total wellbeing.
For example, I might discern that the root cause of your insomnia is an injury you experienced. This will help me create an effective treatment and a self-care plan so you can find relief between massage therapy sessions.
My experience with Ilse at Mystical Renaissance Massage therapy was by far the best. Not only was she in tune with my body's needs but she was also able to release tension without making me sore the following day. I plan to continue my sessions with her regularly. Thanks again Ilse, see you soon!

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What kind of clothing should I wear to my massage session?You can wear any type of clothes you feel comfortable in. That said, massage is best performed without clothes, and with my unique draping techniques, I ensure everyone feels secure.
-
I am pregnant. How can I be sure massage is safe for me and my baby?Massage therapy during pregnancy has been shown to provide many benefits, including a sense of wellness, improved relaxation, and better sleep. Before you schedule a massage visit your doctor, and follow specific guidelines to protect yourself and your baby.
-
What does draping mean?Massage therapists use special techniques to cover the body with a sheet or drape while working on parts of the body, protecting a client’s modesty. Draping allows the client to remain covered and warm while still receiving therapy. An experienced massage therapist ensures that draping will be smooth and seamless and won’t interrupt the flow of the massage. While draping, I ensure that each client is always draped appropriately. The main priorities of massage draping are informed consent, never exposing a client, and always communicating to explain what I’m going to do—before doing it. During the massage, only the body part that the therapist is working on is uncovered, focusing on one body part at a time.
-
What if I need to cancel my appointment?24 hours notice is required to cancel or reschedule an appointment. Failure to cancel appointments at least 24 hours in advance or failure to show up for your appointment will result in a charge of 50% of the scheduled appointment fee which will be processed on the credit card retained on file to reserve the appointment.
-
What makes you different from other massage therapists?I genuinely care about each individual client and aim to address any underlying conditions, whether emotional, physical, and spiritual, and I am always making sure that my clients learn about their bodies and understand the reasons for their symptoms.
-
What if I don't like to be touched?You can experience results without touching! I offer touchless therapy known as Soundhealing or Vibrahealing massage. The massage with Tibetan Signing bowls has an effect on the body and the mind through four fundamental means: hearing, cerebral, anatomical, and energy. As a result of this, the technique is considered complete as well as efficient. Something that for many is striking bowls without rhyme or reason is to the expert a sum of procedures, diagnosis techniques, and application methods that require continued education and investigation, as well as a lot of practice.
-
What is a chakra?Chakras are thought to provide subtle energy that helps your organs, mind, and intellect work at their best level. Chakras and spiritual energy have not been thoroughly examined in medical studies, but they may help you think about your own mind and body like any religion or belief.
-
What is myofascial release therapy?Myofascial tissue is a network of tissue that spreads throughout your entire body. It connects your muscles, joints, and bones. It also provides support to your organs, helping to keep them in place. However, there are multiple layers that work together. In between these layers is a liquid called hyaluronan that provides stretch and encourages free range of movement. When this liquid becomes thick, sticky, or dries up, it can impact the surrounding body parts. Tight myofascial tissue can restrict movement in your muscles and joints. As you move differently to make up for the loss in movement, you can cause additional tightness without realizing it. This can lead to widespread pain and discomfort.
-
What about Covid?Enhanced sanitary measures include sanitizing stations in the treatment room with at least 60% alcohol-based hand sanitizer. We use EPA-approved disinfectants and pay extra attention to high-touch surfaces. Our sanitary measures include enhanced cleaning in between sessions and routine deep cleaning.
