Lisa

Meet Lisa - Owner and Licensed Massage Therapist

Lisa is the proud owner of Relax… and a highly skilled licensed massage therapist with over a decade of experience helping clients restore balance, relieve tension, and elevate their well-being. Since becoming licensed in 2015, she has specialized in deep tissue and relaxation massage, with particular expertise in relieving chronic neck, shoulder, and upper body tension. Each session is thoughtfully tailored to meet the unique needs of every client.

At the heart of Lisa’s practice is a belief that exceptional results begin with intentional communication. She takes a personalized, intuitive approach—listening closely, customizing each treatment, and delivering elevated care with impeccable attention to detail. No two sessions are ever the same, ensuring a truly bespoke experience designed to support recovery, relaxation, and long-term wellness.

Outside of the treatment room, Lisa is a devoted wife, a proud mother of four, and a grandmother of ten. She finds joy in her life surrounded by animals, including four dogs, a cat, and two horses. In her quieter moments, she enjoys listening to podcasts and audiobooks, as well as the peaceful creative arts of knitting and macramé—adding to the calm, mindful energy she brings into every session.

Alissa

Licensed Massage Therapist

I am a massage therapist with 4 years of experience, specializing in prenatal massage and working with clients who have hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS). I take a holistic approach to bodywork, combining therapeutic techniques with deep relaxation to support both physical comfort and overall well-being.

My sessions are always tailored to each client’s unique needs, with a strong focus on safety, communication, and comfort. My goal with every session is to create a calming, supportive experience that promotes balance, relief, and restoration.

Outside of massage I am a dedicated wife and mother of two. I love exploring all the Shenandoah valley has to offer with my family and chocolate lab.
