Welcome to Peace at Hand Massage Therapy

A note from the therapist..........

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without. ~Buddha

Peace at Hand was born of the belief that peace does, indeed, come from within, and that we are at our best when we have a quiet mind, an easeful body, and a joyful spirit. Injury, tension, life events and the simply busy-ness of living in a metropolitan area can all shift us away from our natural, peaceful state. Sometimes we need a helping hand to bring us back to it.

Through a unique blend of massage, stretching and energy work, I can become a guide on your journey to pain management, relaxation, body awareness or pregnancy relief. Through your individualized bodywork session, you will be given the tools to find your way back in to balance. Massage is never something that I do to fix you, but rather a subtle, often subconscious, conversation between the two of us.

It is an unfortunate truth that feeling centered and comfortable in one’s body has come to be seen as a luxury. I strive to correct that, making massage accessible to every body. I maintain studio space in multiple locations, offer self-care and public massage classes, and hold regular seated massage events. I also offer a sliding payment scale and make myself available for out-calls. All massage services are in the DC metro area, by appointment only.

Please click through the site, feel free to contact me with any questions (I love to talk about my work!) and remember to take a moment to breathe.

Namaste.

Random Frequently Asked Question

Will I have to take off my clothes?

In a word: no.

There are some techniques that are most effective over bare skin and many traditional massage modalities are designed to be performed that way, but there are always methods of addressing the body that do not require undressing.

We ask that you undress as much as you are comfortable. For some, that means disrobing completely. For others, that means removing their socks. You will be fully draped with a sheet throughout the entire massage, and we will uncover only the area on which we are working. At no time will you be indecently exposed, even if you undress fully.

Should you choose to leave some of your garments on initially, you will always have the option of removing them as the massage progresses, if you begin to feel that you are missing out.

If you are particularly unsure about undressing, we suggest that you begin with a seated massage, which is traditionally performed with the client fully clothed.
