Lymphatic drainage massage (MLD) · Lymphatic Calm™, my signature method
The reset your body remembers.
Slow, intentional touch that encourages lymph flow, eases puffiness and inflammation, and quiets a busy mind. Built on years of training and certification in manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) and developed over 17 years of lymphatic work.
It's not about pressure. It's about presence.
Your body hasn't forgotten how to heal. It just needs a gentle reminder.
“Incredibly gentle but somehow so effective.”

About Mel
Hi, I'm Mel.
I've been a reflexologist since 1999, a Reiki Master since 2001 and a licensed massage therapist since 2003. I've worked in spas, chiropractic offices and medical settings, and as a massage therapy instructor, and I've spent the last 17 years focused on lymphatic work. I also specialize in plantar fasciitis, sciatica and frozen shoulder.
I believe massage doesn't have to hurt to work. I use a firm, patient touch to melt tissue layer by layer, and I'll send you home with simple self-care so your progress lasts. Tell me what's going on, and I'll help you choose the right session.
What clients say
Real reviews from Google and Yelp.
“As a massage therapist, I’m very selective about who I refer my clients to… If you’re looking for someone for post-operative lymphatic drainage or simply want exceptional care, I highly recommend her. Your recovery will be in excellent hands!”
“I honestly didn’t know what to expect, but I left feeling so relaxed and completely reset… incredibly gentle but somehow so effective.”
“I could actually feel and see a difference afterward. I felt less puffy and bloated, lighter, and just overall better.”
“From the moment Melanie put her hands on me I knew I was in the right hands! She’s helped me with my sciatica, my lymphatic drainage and my aches and pains from moving.”
“She is in a beautiful, clean, and newly remodeled space, so relaxing! … I was like a limp noodle by the end, and now I can turn my head like I’m supposed to!”
“Mel listens to issues. She gives you solutions to your issue, if there is one, to work on at home… Highly recommended Mel!”

Do you take same-week appointments?
Often, yes. Weekends and couples sessions fill first, so give a week of notice when you can.
Will the massage hurt?
