About Me

My name is Julie Sutton. I graduated from EWHAI (2022) and am interested in learning and applying different types of healing modalities to increase positive health for self and others. While on my healing journey, found out that I like helping other people feel better through encouraging better health through massage, TCM, and CranialSacral Therapy.

Massage Pressure

I have a gentle to medium touch, and do not do deep pressure or deep tissue work. Often I will be checking in with you to find out if you would like the pressure to be lighter, deeper, or to stay the same. Please feel free to let me know at any time during the session if you feel any discomfort, so adjustments can be made so you can focus on enjoying your massage. However, If you would like deep tissue work done, I may be able to refer you.

Education

I am a recent graduate of East-West Healing Arts Institute with a certificate (diploma) in Asian Bodywork and Therapeutic Massage with 800 hours of completion. ABTM covers Eastern and Western Massage Theory and Techniques, which include use of acupressure, Gua Sha, moxibustion, cupping, TuiNa, and Swedish massage, &  hot stones.  Cranial Sacral Therapy (level one) is something that is greatly beneficial to the world; I would love to share.

Approach

My favorite approach to use is the Combination Massage which incorporates Eastern and Western modalities together for -in my opinion- the greatest results with use of acupressure, cupping, Gua-Sha, TuiNa and Swedish massage. I love having the freedom to use techniques that I know would be the most beneficial to my clients health and wellness. I do not like to do a one size fits all “cookie cutter”type of massages, I prefer the massage to be specific to the needs of the client (within my scope of practice).

I value professionalism very much. None of the massages are sexual in nature. If any client makes any sexual comments directly at me or makes sexual suggestions or requests, the massage will immediately be terminated and client will be asked respectfully to leave and still be expected to pay for service and time lost. 

Goals

My goal is not only to make you feel relaxed, but to help you feel better, have less pain, better range of movement/motion, and promote well being. I would like to be part of your self care routine. Please share with me what your goals are for receiving bodywork prior to the start of the session. I would love to work together. Please be sure to drink (warm) water after the massage to help aid in detoxing and movement of fluids from the lymphatic system.
