Custom Massage Therapy,
Not a Set Menu
No two people are the same, and no two bodies need the same thing. Rather than working from a fixed routine, I listen to what you describe and read what your tissue is actually doing, then build the session around both.
That approach comes from experience on the table as well as beside it. Chronic sciatica is what led me into this work, so I understand what it is to live with pain that will not let go.

What Clients Say
Frequently Asked Questions
What type of massage should I book?
If you are not sure, book a 60-minute session and tell me what is going on. I build every session around what you describe and what I find, so you do not need to diagnose yourself before arriving.
How long is a massage session?
Sessions are 60 or 90 minutes. Ninety minutes is worth it if you want full-body work plus focused attention on a problem area, or if you are addressing something long-standing.
What is the difference between Swedish and deep tissue massage?
Swedish uses long, flowing strokes for overall relaxation and circulation. Deep tissue uses slower strokes and firmer pressure to reach deeper muscle layers and chronic tightness. Deep tissue is more intense but often more lasting.
Will a massage hurt?
Deeper work can feel intense, but it should never be more than you want. I check in throughout, and pressure is adjusted any time you ask — there is no benefit to gritting your teeth through a session.
Do I have to undress completely?
No. You undress to your comfort level and stay draped throughout, with only the area being worked on uncovered. Plenty of clients keep underwear on, and some sessions are done through clothing.
How often should I get a massage?
It depends on what you are dealing with. Chronic tension often responds best to a series of sessions close together, then a maintenance rhythm. General stress relief is usually monthly. I will give you an honest recommendation rather than a schedule you do not need.
Do you offer prenatal massage?
Yes. Prenatal massage uses supportive positioning and gentler techniques adapted for pregnancy. Let me know how far along you are when you book so I can prepare the room properly.
Where are you located?
2869 24th Street, San Francisco, CA 94110, in the Mission District. Convenient from across San Francisco and from Daly City.
How do I book a session?
Call or text 415-684-5881, email missstillmassages@gmail.com, or use the contact page. Let me know your preferred day and session length.
What should I do after a massage?
Drink water, move gently, and give yourself a little time before anything strenuous. Some tenderness the next day is normal after deeper work, particularly if it has been a while.
