Welcome to our home…practice
With 40 years of combined professional Massage Therapy practice my husband Christopher and I have had a wide variety of experiences. We have worked in a salon, chiropractor’s offices, physical therapy clinics, hospitals, university training rooms and our own multidisciplinary practice in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We have never had a home based practice. So when we finally had the opportunity to move to Phoenixville, Pennsylvania and our house had a built on office with a private entrance, it was both a delightful surprise and a challenge. So, if you have never been to anyone’s house to have a massage appointment, we do understand. This is new to us too.
We are continuing to renovate this amazing house on Gay Street that has been in my husband’s family for four generations while we open our practice to the public. You will not however have to smell paint or see a mess while you are visiting. The office is done and beautiful. It is comfortable and functional. It is private and secluded while being convenient and accessible.
Just to orient you before you come in for an appointment;
- You can park on the street right in front of the house and walk up the front walk to our front door and turn left, walk down the amazing stone walkway to the separate entrance and we will be waiting for you.
- The office has two French doors inside that connect to our living room. These are covered by curtains and will be closed. The living room also has French doors opening to the foyer that will be closed as well. So, you don’t have to listen to anyone watching television or our sons playing video games.
- We do have a dog. You might hear a bark once when you arrive, but she will not be anywhere near you, or where our office is. You will not be hearing her while your session is going on. While we will keep her out of the office area, she does hang out in the living room with us during non-work hours. So, if you are highly allergic to dogs you might need to take that into consideration.
- What do you want to hear during your session? We have Pandora and can accommodate just about any musical request you would enjoy in the background. So, please do not hesitate to let us know what you like. It only takes a few seconds to do this. You will not be hearing us very much during the session. We may need to check in with you and ask you to let us know if you need deeper or lighter work or if anything is uncomfortable. We really do want to know this. It matters a lot to us to be able to meet your needs. We do not, however, need to chat or have an ongoing conversation during the session. Most people appreciate this and enjoy having a session that does not involve a lot of chatter.
- You will get your full appointment time, hands on. We do not have any desire to hurry, treat people like cattle or see how fast we can finish a session. If you book an hour appointment, it will be an hour hands on. The time we need to take to go over your health history, injuries and/or expectations, as well as getting on and off the table will not be deducted from that time at all.
- It is our intention that you do not cross paths with another client. We schedule a 30 minute block in between each appointment to make certain of that. If you are going to be late, we appreciate a call to let us know if possible. Just because we have a 30 minute window doesn’t mean we want to continuously push it. It does mean that once in a while when you are stuck in traffic, or something happens, if you arrive within a reasonable time frame you will still get your full session time.
- We do have online scheduling for your convenience click here but, we do not mind if you would rather not do that please, just give us a call. 610-933-3666 or 610-906-2322
- Please ask questions, we love questions. We may not have all the answers immediately, but we love research, and will get the answer and get back to you as soon as possible.
