These are
a handful of recent reviews
from massage clients.
It always fills me with a
sense of purpose to know
that an hour spent together
can shift the outcome of your day.
Holding safe space, being present,
creating a respite,
hoping you feel heard and
witnessed . . .
these are things I like to do.
You can schedule your next massage appointment by going to the MASSAGE tab and clicking the BOOK NOW button. See you soon! :)
Happy New Year!
Crossing my fingers for a more easeful 2022, how about you?
This message is being sent to keep you updated on Covid policies and session pricing for 2022.
We’ve all experienced price increases across industries and I’ve noticed that many of my colleagues have upped their massage fees – most to $90 an hour.
At this time I am choosing **NOT TO RAISE PRICES**. I don’t want a higher appointment rate to be a barrier to your wellness through massage.
Rather than raise prices, I am considering removing package discount pricing – however at this time you can still purchase two sessions at once to save 5%.
COVID policies:
Masks are again required throughout your session – no matter your vaccination status. All last-minute cancellation fees will be waived for the time being. I urge you to please reschedule your time with me if you feel unwell in any way or have been knowingly exposed to anyone who has tested positive for the virus.
I continue to keep 30 minutes between clients so that the massage room can be cleaned and sanitized thoroughly. An air filter is run throughout your session, my hands are washed, hand sanitizer is used, a mask is worn, etc. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
My main priority is to continue to support your heath and well being and keep us all safe.
I look forward to working with you soon!
Be well,
Tania
P.S. I occasionally post self care videos over on INSTAGRAM, along with some of my art. If there is something you’d like to learn about – maybe reflexology points for different aches and pains – message me and look for the video over there. You can find me @TANIAPALERMOSTUDIOONMAIN

Did you know that the average head weighs around 11 pounds? That’s a lot to carry around and be supported by only 7 vertebrae on your neck. Regular therapeutic massage can help ease some of the tension and pain that is often held in the neck muscles . . . and it feels good.
Yes…all of these things and more! :)
I remember in massage school, when sometimes getting massage five times in a week – how “in my body” I was. So many of us live in our heads. Thinking. Planning. Worrying. Regular bodywork can really ground you. I know it’s been a good massage when my voice is lower after the session. It means I’ve gone deep, settled in and taken up more space IN my body.
What about you? What signifies a good therapeutic massage?
Craving some downtime?
Follow me on Facebook and Instagram @taniapalermostudioonmain for a chance to win the ‘massage lotto’
One day a month I’ll post in one of those two places to announce the randomly selected day – and the first 4 people to respond and book their appointment will ‘win’.
What’s being offered? Four massage sessions at $1 a minute:
30 minutes for $30; 45 minutes for $45; 60 minutes for $60 and 90 minutes for $90.
You must book for the allocated day and must pay cash. You can only win once.
Leave a comment on the post to be one of the first four people to respond. If you can not come on the specified day your slot will go to the next person – so be sure to reply even if it looks like there are already winners.
Tell your friends and family to follow along too and give everyone a chance for some rest and rejuvenation.
Quickly increase the range of movement in your neck by using a simple technique called Active Isolated Stretching. I’ll teach you two stretches in this video and give you an introduction to what A.I.S. is. By actively using our breath we increase blood flow to the tissues – and that means more oxygen and nutrients getting to the muscles. By specifically engaging one muscle group – the opposite is encouraged to relax – this is called reciprocal inhibition. And by holding each stretch for only 2 seconds we avoid engaging the stretch reflex. Try it out and let me know what results you achieve. As always I look forward to hearing from you.
Not sure you’re ready to come back in for a massage session? Why not try long distance energy work. You can receive it right from the safety of your own home.
Use this simple technique with your breath to reduce some stress and anxiety right now. Try it and let me know how it supported you.
Hello Massage Clients & Friends,
The state of CT has included Massage Therapy in Phase 2 of the Reopen CT plan. This would allow me to begin sessions again as soon as June 17, 2020. However – there are new guidelines and rules we have to follow – and as of today, I do not have all of the required tools in place in order to self certify and reopen. As many things are on back order, this is out of my control – but I am working to acquire all that is necessary ASAP and will send out a final email with a specific date as soon as I can.
A heads up that one of the requirements to open is that you will have to wear a mask or cloth face covering protecting your mouth and nose the ENTIRE time you are with me – including throughout your whole massage – even when you are face down on the table. I will not be allowed to touch any area on your face that is covered. I’d love your feedback to know if you will still receive massage while we have to follow that mandatory rule? Or will you wait until the restrictions are loosened? Are you feeling safe to come back for a massage at this time?
Thank you for your patience and understanding these past few months. I do look forward to seeing you again soon!
Be well,
Tania
