Did you know that your skin is the largest organ in your body? And that skin cells are similar to those of the central nervous system?

For these reasons, even a basic massage is relaxing and rejuvenating. It fulfills a need called “skin hunger” in people who don’t receive enough human touch. Therapeutic massage goes beyond simple pampering—it can actually help people feel nourished and sustained.

By listening carefully to her clients and her own intuition, Virginia tailors a program of therapeutic massage for each individual, drawing from these and other treatment techniques~

CranioSacral Therapy

• CranioSacral Therapy balances the membranes and fluids that surround the brain and spinal column, resulting in less pain, fewer headaches, open sinuses, and better health.

Acupressure and Polarity Therapy

• Acupressure and polarity therapy enhance the flow of “chi” or life force in and around the body for better organ function and a more balanced structure.

Structural Balancing

• Structural balancing realigns the bony structure to alleviate pain and to make the energy of the bones available for better function and deep healing.

Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Alignment

• TMJ alignment is especially enjoyable for Virginia, as it necessitates a “whole body” approach, calling on muscles, bones, energy and emotions to bring relief.

Client Testimonial...

I’ve been seeing Virginia Hofrichter, massage therapist, for about 4 years for tension-related neck and shoulder pain. Ginny’s touch is gentle but firm, and she has an uncanny way of finding the knotted muscles that need soothing and healing. She also has a range of techniques to call on, depending on the problem. When I had shoulder pain due to computer overuse, she cleared the problem in one session and it has never returned. Her kindness and genuine concern for my well being set her apart from other massage therapists, and I recommend her without hesitation for anyone with tight muscles and chronic pain.
