Hi! Folks know me both as Meg and as Teddy. I prefer Teddy and use that name now, so thank you for making the switch! I know it can be hard to use a new name for someone and I appreciate your effort.
In my bodywork practice I mostly utilize Myofascial Release and Ashiatsu techniques in the treatment room. I also often use cups and gua sha as well on spots that need more attention. I have a foundational training in Swedish and Deep Tissue but I use those techniques in a supportive way rather than as a main approach.
For clients seeking Deep Tissue style work please book Ashiatsu, and for clients seeking more gentle work please book Myofascial Release. And for people wanting to try both, I also offer a blended style in 60, 90 and 120 minute sessions. For more information about both of these styles, please check out their descriptions.
When working with me, expect an authentic and genuine approach during treatments. I welcome spirited conversation in the treatment room, and also love to hold space for meditative silence. My sessions are client led, creative and collaborative. I hold the belief that listening and reawakening your intuitive body is the wisest guide, and I do my best to let that lead our work together. My work tends to be focused around your “spots,” prioritizing areas that are locked, frozen, numb, or hypersensitive. I also realize that the body is usually not symmetrical, so treatments from me are often focused and integrative rather than making sure that every part of the body gets the same amount of attention every time.
I’m a huge lover of plants and animals, and love to spend my time in nature, on my bike, or in my garden. I often bring herbal oils and body butters that I make from medicinal plants into the treatment room for folks who like to integrate plant medicine into their treatments.
I’m a member of the LGBTQIA+ and neurodiverse community and I love working with and accommodating clients within that spectrum of identities.
I unfortunately do not offer pre-natal massage.
