Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I take the time to focus on problem areas, working on issues in a detailed manner to get the best result. Sessions are tailored to each individuals needs and at the same time you will walk away with an understanding of how your body work and responds to stressors, and what to do on your own to make your session more effective.
The work is based in a combination of Swedish, Deep Tissue, Sports and Myofascial work. I also include some stretching to complete the work and leave you balanced and refreshed. Pressure is applied based on your comfort and you dictate how you would like the session to go, choosing from whatever tool I have in my belt.
I like the ability to affect change. Change goes beyond just the physical, for we are not just our body, but our mind and our spirit. Massage and energy work has the ability to touch all three.
I do offer mobile services, but it is limited to availability based on the schedule in office. Anything mobile in the evening is very limited and I do not work past 7pm. If I have openings Saturday that don't conflict with the existing office schedule, then I will fit in a mobile appointment. While I will arrange appointments online, I do require the first session to be arranged via a phone call. There is a deposit required for first time clients as I do have a cancellation and no show policy. The amount will be credited at time of service

Its hard to describe what happened today but I know the massage I got from Faith is a blessing in my life. I'm happy to have met this young lady and if I would recommend a massage therapist, Faith is who I'd recommend. I went to massage parlors before and I had never been stretched until I met Faith. I remember from playing high school football, how important the nerdy trainers would say, "stretching is very important". If that's true then why wasn't I ever stretched during a session until now. Faith is very knowledgeable in her field, and usually what separates us from others is skills, knowledge and pride. Faith has all qualities from my perspective and I trust I'm in good hands with her. I'm gonna thank her by seeing her as much as possible. Thanks Faith

Deep Tissue Massage
As somebody who never had a full body massage.My wife was impressed with how she had straightened my back after having a road traffic accident. Before i went to see Faith i could not lie on my back by the time left her studio i could lie on my back .While she said i will need more sessions to get the best out of my body i am going back for another one .Unfortunately i go back to Scotland on the day after my session i will go to a massage therapist while i am home .Whenever i come back to Virginia Beach i will definitely use Faith again First class massage.

I was looking for a massage therapist that could assist with mobility and stretching. I'm an active person with no true complaints, but had areas of tension and decreased flexibility when playing sports. Faith helped loosen these areas and I already feel as if I have a greater range of motion from just one session. Her technique was spot-on, she adjusted her pressure to my preferences (firm) and she loosened up some areas of tension that other massage therapists have missed in the past. I am so happy about our session that I increased our appointment from 60 minutes to 90 minutes today and have already scheduled regular visits with her.

After an extensive search for massage therapist in the area I located Faith. I have seen several therapists and i can say she is very skilled and gifted in her craft. Perhaps one of the best sessions i have experienced. Great experience and plan on seeing her again in the future. Thank you Faith!

Faith is a professional masseuse and knows exactly what her client needs. She takes time to ask and explain the proper techniques and ensure your comfort and therapy requirements are all met at the same time.

FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is a flat rate based on time and include the broad range of techniques I offer in a customized session for you.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to sit down with them during the initial intake and get a sense of what they are going through physically and then build a rapport to see what else lies below the surface. The intake is not included in the actual bodywork time as I feel that a 1hr or a 90min massage should be just that.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I had been told repeatedly that I was a natural at this work and that I should proceed to get my certification. Finally while living in Los Angeles, I decided to get my certification and studied at the National Holistic Institute.
