This session tends to every system with great attention to detail, settles into the areas that need extra support, and works holistically to realign your structural systems. This session would include Structural Care, and may also include Deeper Threads.

The full body starts at 2 hours, though more often lasts between 2hr 15 min–2hr 45 min. Extra time is added with the consent of the client and additional time runs at the rate of 100/hr. See below for more on my approach to time. This session offers attention to the whole body, including the ability to focus on requested areas as well as providing general overall support and balance. This session would include Structural Care, and may also include Deeper Threads.
Who books the 2 hr as a full body session?
—Those who receive regular bodywork and benefit best from general maintenance
—Those looking for general maintenance with an additional area that needs extra attention
-
The 1 hr focus session works in-depth with a particular area or system of the body. For example, a focus session for someone with tightness between the shoulders might include attention to neck, mid and low back, and pectoral areas to address the muscular systems that interact with the particular area of discomfort between the shoulders. This is a Structural Care session.
This is not a full-body session.
Some common areas that people choose a focus session include the neck and shoulders; low back and hips; feet/plantar fascia; jaw and neck.
Who books the 1hr focus session?
—Those who have a particular area that is acutely or chronically impacting their day to day routines
—Athletes
—Soft tissue injuries
—Chronic stress leading to chronic pain
—Those who have systemically tight fascia and need to break their massage care into smaller amounts of time to integrate it best.
The Kairos Experience
We live in a culture of massage that generally adheres tightly to the clock. There is always a time and a place for this. And, my sessions provide a Kairos Experience, a unique offering that is set apart from this general culture.
Moving at the body’s pace, sessions are often longer and more thorough than typically found elsewhere: A full body massage is at least 2 hours, and often runs longer; a focus session with a single area is no less than an hour.
Kairos is an ancient Greek word meaning the right time, or critical moment, and the experience of Kairos is often described as time out of time.
There is a slowing and deepening into presence, and the need to account for time as a ticking clock fades. From this place, there are depths of experience, layers of discovery and awareness, and quality of work and transformation that cannot be as easily accessed and achieved within the confines of linear time.
I have always loved and felt drawn to experiences that occur within the felt sense of Kairos time, and as your practitioner, I am committed to offering you the unique depth and quality of Kairos. When slipping onto my table, together, we will slow down and listen for the unique needs of your body, and attend to these needs thoroughly, holistically and at your body’s pace.
What is possible if you slow down and meet your body fully, right where it is?
During your session with me, this is your Kairos, your right time to do just this. Come tend to the fullness of you and discover what is held in the fiber of your being.
Katie Vincent recovers from a car accident
Sally brings an attuned and soulful presence to our massages—ready to listen deeply for whatever unraveling or nourishment my body is longing for. Her touch is deep, firm, yet soft and intuitive. I feel held and safe in the therapeutic space she creates, like I can really let go and open into my vulnerability.
I walk away from the table feeling deeply restored and connected to my aliveness. It feels like the healing power of the natural world flows through her hands. Her healing gifts are palpable!
I worked with Sally when healing through a car accident. Our monthly 3-hour massages were a supportive compliment to my physical therapy and medical care, and made a tremendous difference. She was able to help unravel some holding patterns that my other medical treatments couldn't touch.
Our massages were a regular part of tending to the many overlapping tides of my life—grieving big losses, my heartbreak for our world, integrating from transformative experiences, and facing my fears to step into a fuller phase of my life. Our long sessions were an irreplaceable support to transitions I never knew I could digest.
I could sing praises for Sally's work forever! Beyond her massage practice, Sally is a gifted musician, teacher and guide. Her integrity and dedication to her art is palpable in everything she touches. I am grateful to be a recipient of her healing touch.
