About Me
From my first-ever therapeutic massage I received, I knew "this is what I want to do!" Shortly thereafter, I made the career change from nursing to enrolling in the Massage Therapy Program at North Country Community College in 2011. Yogic aspects of body awareness, the importance of breathing and movement, and compassionate positive regard for others were integral components within our program. My foundational massage training is in Swedish technique, orthopedic, prenatal, hot stone massage, and reflexology, as well as introductory study in Eastern modalities such as Thai and Shiatsu massage. I am of the belief that there is a strong body-mind-spirit connection, and I do my best to help my clients find their own balance. This applies whether I'm conducting massage therapy sessions or yoga classes. I would describe my personal style of work as being very integrative; Each session/class is tailored to meet the needs of the client, based upon intuition and my knowledge of physiology and indicated techniques. Since becoming licensed in Massage Therapy in 2014, I've enjoyed facilitating my clients' discovery of therapeutic massage as a mode of connection and healing. I completed my vinyasa yoga teacher training with Driftwood Yoga in Clayton, NY in the Summer of 2019. For me, it has been the synergy of bodywork, physical movement, mindfulness, breath awareness, and meditation which has facilitated a profound change in my own life. Teachers and bodywork professionals I choose to learn from also possess a holistic perspective in regard to human health. If this philosophy sounds compatible with your own perspective and values, then I believe we could accomplish wonderful things and I'd love to work with you!
Services
Therapeutic Massage
30 minutes $65
60 minutes $100
90 minutes $150
Regina's signature work integrates a blend of techniques and modalities to meet her clients' individual needs. It is possible that a client's session may include any of the following: Breath work, guided meditation, massage applications ranging in pressure from light to deep, trigger point or myofascial work, and passive or active stretching. This work promotes the cornerstone benefits of massage: Decreased muscle tension and fascial restriction patterns, relief from the effects of stress and pain, enhanced circulation, improved range of motion, and a sense of overall wellbeing and relaxation.
Reflexology
30 minutes $65
60 minutes $100
Based upon the belief that points on the hands and feet correlate to specific areas of the body, the therapist manipulates these points as a way to indirectly treat the rest of the body. This beautifully relaxing treatment is non-invasive, yet highly effective in bringing balance and an overall sense of wellbeing. This type of massage is particularly good for clients who are unable to receive touch to the other parts of their bodies, or who are otherwise uncomfortable with full-body massage.
Hot Stone Massage
60 minutes $130
90 minutes $180
Smooth stones are heated, oiled, and applied to the body in long gliding strokes to create the "melting" sensation of this modality is adored for. The added heat and weight of the stones amplifies the effects of the massage session. *For this reason, hot stone work may be contraindicated for those who are pregnant or those with inflammatory or cardiovascular conditions. If either situation applies to you, please consult with the therapist before booking your appointment.*
Energy Body Balancing
30 minutes $60
60 minutes $100
90 minutes $150
Within this session, the client can expect a blend of hands-on therapy techniques and energy work from Regina's training in Usui Reiki Level 2. Reiki practitioners are attuned in how to sense energetic flow and implement the healing energy originating from the great source of highest power, God energy. Within this modality, the practitioner engages with and facilitates the optimal flow of the life force energy which exists within each of us. " The profound relaxation produced by Reiki has been anecdotally reported to alleviate anxiety and stress, the perception of pain, and to promote a feeling of psychospiritual well-being." ~International Journal of Palliative Nursing
Pregnancy Massage
30 minutes $65
60 minutes $100
90 minutes $150
What a way to rejoice in the wonder of this transformative process! You can feel safe receiving bodywork from a therapist specially trained in this modality, and who possesses her Advanced Certification in prenatal massage. Regular massage during pregnancy and the postpartum period has been proven to have many benefits. Experiencing positive therapeutic touch is one of the best methods for relieving the physical discomforts of pregnancy. During this time of so many changes, massage therapy is shown to aid in coping with stress and fatigue, learning self-care techniques, preparing for labor, and connecting with the life developing within.
East/West Massage Blend
90 minutes $165
120 minutes $215
During Thai Massage, the client lies passively on a mat and the practitioner brings the client into recumbent or seated versions of yogic poses. This stretches & promotes optimal energetic flow through the meridians of the body. The passive mobilizations impact the soft tissues around the muscles and joints in a positive way as well. Regina's approach isn't as vigorous as many traditional Thai sessions. Her technique is overall gentle/non forceful, and the intensity of the stretches is never intended to go beyond the client's comfort threshold. Within a session, the client can expect to spend the first portion of the session receiving work on the mat on the floor. Loose, flexible clothing may be worn for this portion. Then for the second portion of the session, the therapist rounds out the treatment with some targeted Swedish-based techniques on the massage table. This combination of Eastern floor work and Western table work gains the benefits of both full body mobilizations and targeted therapeutic methods, resulting in a glowing sense of wellbeing and full body relaxation.
Treatment Enhancements
Exfoliating Foot Scrub $15
with Hot Stones $25
Hot steamy towels wrap the feet to cleanse, soften and relax, then the option of an invigorating sugar or salt exfoliation treatment is applied. Once the exfoliant is removed, enjoy a focused massage with moisturizing cream.
Ionic Foot Bath
30 minutes $25
with Shoulder Massage $50
An ionic foot detox can help your body eliminate toxins and free radicals that find their way into your system through food, beauty products, and the environment. The system ionizes water molecules into positive and negative ions. These ions attract and neutralize toxins and heavy metals of the opposite charge by pulling these contaminants out through your feet.
I went to Regina with lower back pain and a desperate need for relaxation! I left with less pain and a very wonderful experience. Reginas calming voice paired with her professional and inviting studio made for a great massage. I will definitely be back!
~Alissa C.
Regina was very welcoming and made the experience very comfortable. She has a very calming personality which makes relaxing easy. Regina asks questions to make sure she knows what exactly you want to get out of your experience. I would highly recommend her services!
~Keegan D.
Regina's massage encompasses everything I desire in a session. Compassion, healing energy, humor, and a reminder of why I found myself in the same field of work! One of the finest therapists around!

~Linda H.
I have always had a terrific massage experience and I’m grateful our community has Regina.
~Clarinda
Regina is amazing.She is very intuitive, and her skills are remarkable. I have greater range of motion and I’m no longer in pain.
~Vicki
Over the past 25 years I have received both massage therapy (with at least 10 different MTs) and physical therapy for a variety of muscular-skeletal problems, as well as for general relaxation. Regina is the most effective LMT I have encountered. She combines technical skill and knowledge with a gentle persona that simply elicits a wonderful state of relaxation in her clients. I have been particularly impressed by her ability to vary and modify her treatments for me as our work together evolved. Regina often researched specific issues, then tailored her therapy to my specific needs. I always look forward to our sessions, and invariably benefited both in the moment, and for a considerable time after my MT. I highly endorse Regina as a highly skilled, competent, and especially caring LMT. ~Peter G.

~Angela
