Services
-
Each session is customized to meet your needs and may include Swedish flow, deep tissue techniques, trigger point work, passive stretching, range of motion, and other modalities based on your goals, comfort, health history, and consent. Hydrotherapy and aromatherapy are included with any treatment, as desired.
Initial Session: 90 or 120 minutes
Anyone new to the practice will begin with an initial session. This first appointment allows time for a full intake, conversation, consent, and bodywork.
The initial session helps us begin with clarity: what your body is carrying, what kind of support you are seeking, what areas need attention, and how we can work together in a way that feels safe, respectful, and effective. The initial session is discounted at 15 percent.
Release : 60 minutes
Available after an initial session, Release is a focused appointment for targeted work rather than full-body massage. It may support one or two areas, such as neck and shoulders, low back and hips, legs and feet, or follow-up work between longer sessions.
Restore : 90 minutes
Restore is a spacious session for restoration: full-body care, focused work, stress relief, pain relief, mobility, and nervous system reset. This is the core Longleaf offering and a good fit for people who want meaningful bodywork without feeling rushed.
Remember: 120 minutes
Remember is an extended therapeutic massage session for deeper unwinding, slow transitions, focused bodywork, full-body restoration, and integration. This session offers more time for the body to soften, release, and remember itself as whole.

A 4-session therapeutic massage and bodywork series
The Shift Series is a four-session bodywork series for people seeking deeper support with chronic tension, stress patterns, mobility concerns, burnout, recovery, or a desire to build a more consistent relationship with their body.
A single massage can offer meaningful relief, rest, and reconnection but a series allows us to work more intentionally over time. Across four sessions, we listen for patterns, support release, respond to your body’s feedback, and create space for integration.
The series is ideally completed within 4–6 weeks, but timing can be adjusted as needed. This rhythm supports continuity while making room for real life, rest, caregiving, travel, and scheduling needs.
The Shift Series may include four Restore (90 min) sessions or four Remember (120 min) sessions.
First-time clients are welcome to book a Shift Series but are encouraged to do an initial session first.

Assisted stretching and mobility support: 60 Minutes
Branch & Bend is a fully clothed session focused on breathing, supported stretching, range of motion, body awareness, and returning to more ease of movement.
This offering is for people who feel stiff, compressed, overworked, physically limited, or disconnected from their body’s natural movement. Assisted stretching can help create more space in the body while supporting mobility, breath, and comfort.
-
Gender-affirming scar care and tissue integration: 40 Minutes
Weaving Earth is a consent-based scar and soft tissue care session designed for people healing after gender-affirming surgical procedures, like top surgery.
This work can begin once incisions are fully closed and the person receiving care has been cleared for scar massage or gentle tissue work by their surgeon. Sessions are designed to support scar healing, tissue mobility, sensation, bodily awareness, and reconnection.
The work moves slowly and collaboratively. We follow your pace, your boundaries, and your body’s responses while staying within massage therapy scope and medical guidance.
Available after initial 90 or 120-minute session.

Longleaf Healing Arts uses a self-selected sliding scale:
Access / Sustain / Nurture.
Access
The Access rate is $50 below the Sustain rate and is available for people for whom the Sustain rate would create financial stress and/or limit access to care.
To select the access rate, ask me for a code that you can apply during scheduling.
Sustain
The Sustain rate reflects the cost of maintaining the practice.This rate is for people with financial stability who can meet basic needs and also afford wellness care and recreation.
All services are priced at the Sustain rate on the scheduling platform.
Nurture
The Nurture rate is $50 above Sustain and helps support Longleaf’s access-centered pricing.
This rate is for people with greater financial capacity, savings, inherited wealth, class privilege, institutional resources, and/or the ability to comfortably meet basic needs, pay for wellness care, recreation and leisure.
When you choose Nurture, you help make care more available for someone with less access to financial resources.
To select the Nurture rate, check the box for the Nurture add-on when booking on the scheduling platform.
Please choose your rate with honesty and care.

Why We Love Longleaf Pines
Longleaf Healing Arts is guided by the Southern longleaf pine — a tree and ecosystem known for resilience, restoration, steadiness, and roots that grow both deep and wide. Longleaf pines remind us that healing is not only about one body, one session, or one moment. Healing happens in relationship: with the body, the land, our communities, and the conditions that help life return.
Root First, Rise Later
Young longleaf pines begin life in what is called the grass stage. During this time, they may look small above ground, but beneath the soil they are developing the roots that will later help them grow tall and strong.
At Longleaf, this teaches us that healing often begins below the surface. Growth is not always visible right away. Sometimes we root first, then rise.
Deep and Wide Roots
Longleaf pines develop strong taproots that reach deep into the earth, along with wide lateral roots that help anchor the tree through wind, storms, and change.
This is part of the inspiration for rooted care: care that supports both inner grounding and wider connection.
Shaped by Fire
Longleaf pine ecosystems are fire-adapted. Low, regular fire helps clear the forest floor, make room for new growth, and sustain the open, biodiverse landscape where longleaf communities thrive.
Longleaf pine teaches that transformation is not always simple, but with the right support, change can take root.
A Living Ecosystem
A longleaf pine is never just one tree. Healthy longleaf forests support grasses, flowers, birds, insects, animals, fungi, and many other forms of life.
This reminds us that healing is relational. Our bodies, relationships, communities, and environments are connected.
Steadfast Through Storms
Longleaf pines are known for resilience in wind, drought, and fire. Their strength comes not from being rigid, but from being rooted, adaptive, and part of a living system.
At Longleaf Healing Arts, this is the spirit of the work: steady, responsive, consent-centered care that supports release, restoration, and renewal over time.
