Clients include headache- plagued office workers
and high-performance triathletes. Therapists often
end sessions by teaching stretching techniques to
help clients improve posture or decrease muscle
tension. Background music is usually classical,
but odd requests are accommodated: one client listens
to gangsta rap during her hamstring treatments.
Four other massage therapists, a licensed naturopath
and a chiropractor round out the close-knit staff.

Baby photos on the wall of Alex Nolis’ quiet
massage treatment room signal that this is indeed
a family affair. Along with his wife, fellow RMT
Casey Nolis, opened shop here over three years ago.
Treatments lean toward the clinical, with headache-plagued
office workers and high-performance triathletes
flocking in to enjoy the restorative benefits of
deep tissue massage. Keeping in mind the goal of
prevention, therapists often end sessions by imparting
stretching techniques to help clients improve posture
or decrease muscle tension before pain sets in.
Music tends to low-key classical, but odd requests
are accommodated: gangsta rap has been heard issuing
from the stereo during one client’s hamstring
treatment. Four other massage therapists and a licensed
naturopathic doctor round out the close-knit staff.
