queer friendly massage in Northampton, MA thai yoga bodywork

Mindful, Trauma-Informed, Gender Inclusive Healing

in Northampton, MA

Note: I am currently solely practicing Thai Yoga Bodywork, Energy work, and Chair Massage

The first session begins with an intake, where I ask about your goals, needs, and sensitivities, and we make a treatment plan together. I then offer a brief centering meditation to help you settle into your body, and begin a gentle, thorough session focusing on the places where you are feeling stuck or sore.

Thai yoga therapy is an ancient healing modality based on Buddhist practices that takes place fully clothed, on a floor mat, in loose-fitting, comfortable clothing. It is passive on the part of the client, and there is no need to be flexible in order to receive it. I will use my hands and feet to offer a blend of dynamic-assisted stretching, rhythmic compression, and acupressure along energy lines. Sometimes referred to as “lazy man’s yoga”, it often results in a state of deep relaxation, enhanced range of motion, and restored physical and mental balance. Feel free to reach out with any questions!

Seated Massage and energy work are also available.

Please arrive on time so that you can receive your full session. There is a cancellation fee for no-shows or appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours notice.

Testimonials

Emet is the real deal when it comes to holding space for another’s healing. Their touch and caring are the finest. Emet knows how to listen and to create a session that nourishes body, mind, heart, and soul. -Arti R.

Emet has been my healer and massage therapist for several years. Since then, I feel my general health has improved tremendously. The massage itself is amazing, but Emet also has a great and wise energy, which is reflected in their space, and which flows into the lives of others. Emet is intuitive, smart, positive, kind, and just a general all around great body worker. For those of us who find New England winters challenging, know that regular sessions with Emet will get you through January like a trip to Hawaii! They’re the best!!! -Oonagh

I love that every massage from Emet has been just what I need, whether that’s hitting a particular physical spot or an emotional/energetic one. I picked Emet on a gut feeling about a year ago, and it was definitely a great choice. -Sara Barry

Emet is a special therapist who pays attention to what you’re going through, both physically and emotionally. Their sessions are focused and manage to help in ways you don’t realize until later in the day/week. They’re an essential person for my personal wellness! And they happen to be a fine human being, too. -Ben Z

Emet is extraordinary! The moment I enter their space I am a tiny bit more at ease. By the time I leave I feel superb; relaxed, calm in my mind and cared for. Emet is strong and mighty, kind and warm. -Amy Altwarg
