My name is Malika, though many clients call me Mali. I am a graduate of the New Hampshire Institute for Therapeutic Arts and bring more than ten years of experience in social work and mental health to my work as a massage therapist. This background informs my holistic approach to wellness and allows me to provide thoughtful, trauma informed care.
I prioritize ongoing training so that every session can be personalized to meet the unique needs of each client. My work centers on the connection between the mind and body and the ways stress and pain are held in the nervous system and muscles. My technique is slow and intentional, helping calm the nervous system and support the release of tension.
Active listening and empathy guide my practice and help create a safe and supportive environment for healing. My studio is an inclusive and body positive space where every client is welcomed with care.
In today’s fast paced world, caring for ourselves is more important than ever. Because bodywork can feel out of reach for many people, I offer sliding scale options to help make massage therapy more accessible.

Services Offered
-

Customized Massage
Each session is thoughtfully designed around your individual needs and wellness goals. This integrated approach to massage therapy blends techniques such as deep tissue, sports massage, Swedish massage, and myofascial release to support pain relief, relaxation, and improved mobility.
Sessions may also include complementary practices such as energy work or guided meditation when desired. Every treatment is tailored to create a restorative experience that supports both physical relief and a deeper sense of balance in the body and mind.
-

Prenatal Massage
Prenatal massage is thoughtfully designed to support comfort, relaxation, and overall well being throughout pregnancy. Specially designed cushions and supportive side lying positioning are used to ensure the body is properly supported while avoiding pressure on the abdomen.
Each session is tailored to address the common physical changes of pregnancy, helping to ease muscle tension, reduce stress, and promote gentle relief for the body. Prenatal massage can be safely received during any stage of pregnancy and offers a calming space to rest, restore, and reconnect with your body.
-

Lymphatic Massage
Lymphatic massage is a gentle technique designed to support the body’s natural healing processes by encouraging the movement of lymphatic fluid through its intended pathways and toward the lymph nodes. This work supports the lymphatic system, which plays an important role in immune function, detoxification, and reducing inflammation.
This treatment can be especially supportive for those experiencing edema or swelling, living with autoimmune conditions, or recovering after surgery. Lymphatic massage is different from traditional massage therapy that focuses on the muscular system. Instead, it uses light, precise movements to assist the flow of lymph and promote overall balance and healing within the body.
-

Hot Stone Massage
Hot stone massage uses the therapeutic warmth of heated stones to help relax muscles and ease tension throughout the body. The gentle heat allows muscles to soften more quickly, making it easier to release areas of tightness and discomfort.
During the session, smooth heated stones are used as an extension of the therapist’s hands to deliver slow, flowing massage. Many clients find this treatment deeply calming and grounding, offering a soothing experience that supports both physical relaxation and a sense of overall balance.
-

Reiki
Reiki is a gentle energy healing practice that supports relaxation, balance, and overall well being. Sessions may be offered with light touch or with hands held just above the body, depending on the comfort and preference of the client.
Treatments draw from traditional Usui Reiki hand placements and may also incorporate guided meditation and sound healing to create a calming and restorative experience. Reiki can be a meaningful practice for those seeking to deepen their connection between mind and body or explore a greater sense of spiritual wellness. ✨
-

Sliding Scale
Sliding scale pricing is available to help make massage therapy and bodywork more accessible. Clients may choose from a range of rates based on what best fits their current budget, allowing more people to receive the care and support they need.
Sliding scale rates cannot be combined with other discounts or promotional offers.
