My name is Jiraiya Addams, and I am the owner and masseur of Sangraal Bodywork since 1999. I am certified and licensed in Washington state, and am a professional licensing program graduate at Ashmead College.
I have volunteered to do on-site massage for charitable institutions like Bailey-Boushay House, aiding chronically ill individuals toward recovery or comfort.
I have also participated in various local alternative healthcare fairs, providing education to the public about massage therapy and its benefits. I specialize in deep tissue massage and lymphatic work.
My massage approach is grounded in a familiarity of the function and structure of the human body, as well as results oriented.
A typical massage may incorporate many techniques drawn from various styles customized to a client's preferences and needs, and may include the following:
- Myofascial release (deep tissue)
- Swedish massage
- Lymphatic drainage
- Sports massage
- Pregnancy massage

Q. What questions should a consumer ask to hire the right service professional?
A. What to Expect at your first Appointment:
1. Greeting and Intake:
If this is your first time into the studio, you will be asked to complete a confidential Health Information/Intake Form (unless you would prefer to do that online ). Afterwards, you and the therapist/LMP will briefly discuss your health history and current situation as relevant to the upcoming massage session. 2. Preliminaries: The therapist will conduct you back to the session room (an excellent opportunity to visit the restroom presents itself now…). You will be directed on where to place your things, how to get on the massage table. You may disrobe completely (the sheets can be skillfully manipulated to preserve modesty), or may retain some clothing (e.g. underwear).
3. The Session: Upon returning to the session room, the therapist will get some music going (you may also bring your own music), adjust lighting and “face-cradle” angle, and then begin the massage. Details of each session will different according to each client’s needs and preferences, but often the massage will start with back, neck, and shoulders; proceed to hands and arms; then to feet, legs, and hips. Upon turning over onto your back, the massage will continue with more work on the legs and arms, and then finish with more extensive work on your neck, shoulders, face, and head.
At various times during the session the LMP will “check-in” with you about your comfort and enjoyment of the session, with questions like “how is the pressure so far?” or “is it painful as I pull here?” Proper feedback from you is very important for the overall success of the session: feel free to speak up at any time with any comments, suggestions, cautions, or complaint that you want to communicate. Ideally, you and the therapist will be cooperating together to create the perfect massage….
