Booking Guide
More about the mission
We believe massage provides time designated for you to tune into your body's needs and in so doing, find more peace. It is empowering and embodying. It should be affordable (we do our best to offer accessible rates & accommodations). And it is personal, so your comfort and consent are #1 always. Different styles & techniques as well as tools, positionings and session length will be considered each time you come in. Sessions can be done fully clothed and any areas that you want to be avoided will be.
This is YOUR time for YOUR care. We honor the nuance needed with bodywork when dysphoria, trauma, touch aversion, difficulty verbalising experience, chronic pain and more are in the mix. We customize each session to the daily need of the client and make any accommodations necessary for the specific support of existing conditions. Our goal is for clients to leave feeling lighter, less constricted, and more in touch with their most true and precious self.
Ri named the practice Timepeace Massage because they were inspired by their grandfather, a watch mechanic & tinkerer, who they imagined would "stop time to fix time". They connect to this concept as part of the very tangible magic of massage. Taking time to slow down, and experience specific, detailed care, can make all the difference in cultivating the peace we feel in our bodies and beyond.
