About Ariana

 

I graduated from Great Bay Community College in Portsmouth, NH with a certificate in Massage Therapy in August of 2016, excited to use the wealth of knowledge I acquired to help others. I am licensed in the state of New Hampshire as a Massage Therapist, license number #7354. I became a Massage Therapist because I wanted to makea  career out of helping others. While working in a traditional healthcare setting, I was able to assist in maintaining or improving a patient's quality of life once they were already ill. Once I discovered massage therapy, I realized I could play a part in preventing long term pain and stress.

Who can benefit from massage? The short answer is: everyone! But more specifically...

Those who have physically and mentally demanding jobs, and people who struggle with past injuries can experience reduced pain by receiving regular massage. Chronic pain due to conditions such as fibromyalgia and arthritis can be reduced through massage. Massage can also help reduce the stress experienced by hardworking parents and caregivers. Those experiencing anxiety, depression, and loss of sleep can experience reduced symptoms, some of the benefits deep relaxation provides. Regular massage could prevent  injury in athletes and can improve performance for those who love their sport.

These are just a few specific examples of how massage therapy can improve overall health and quality of life.

I am very excited to be able to help any person seeking relief from the side effects of a stressful life, and those seeking the deep relaxation we all deserve!

During your massage, I will utilize one or more of the following techniques:

  • Swedish Massage
  • Deep Tissue Massage
  • Myofascial Release
  • Trigger Point Therapy
  • Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation
  • Stretching
