Sri Yoga Massage

***New Client Special: 20% off a one hour massage!***


There are a plenty of places to get a massage, so why choose Sri?
Just as there are many yoga instructors around, a truly good one is difficult to find. Sri takes pride in providing superior massage therapy (as well as yoga instruction) as part of our commitment to provide you with the ultimate experience in healing and improving your health at every level.

Even though massage therapy works mainly at the physical level, it is not merely somatic - there is an energetic and mental component as well. According to Ayurveda (yoga's sister science), any physical imbalance or disease is a result of a mind-body-spirit disconnection. So for massage therapy to be truly effective, the therapist must have more than merely nimble hands and muscular might.

If the therapist is not balanced herself at a physical and emotional level, no matter how deft and skilled at kneading muscles and working out knots she may be, the client will always leave not feeling 100% better. Physically there will be some relief, but a certain and deeper sense of well-being will be missing.

A simple example: think of spending time with someone you know who is really happy, and then someone who is really miserable. How do you feel after the interaction? Even though the interaction involved no physical contact, just by being in the same space has a profound affect on your own mental and physical state.

Therefore, we believe that for massage therapy to truly be beneficial the therapist must be genuinely happy and eager to help you. Also, the environment where the massage takes place must be nurturing and serene. At Sri, you know you will always be in good hands. Melissa Brown LMT, our resident massage therapist, is not only gifted at sensing imbalances in the body but effective at combining intuition with technique in her practice. However, her greatest gift in massage therapy is her sincere desire to help you feel better. A practicing yogini, Melissa has also dedicated her entire life to living a more healthy, balanced and blissful life and helping others to follow suit.

Thus, a massage at Sri is soothing to your body, mind and spirit.
