First Time Visiting Sevati?
Here’s what to expect
When You Arrive
When you walk into Sevati Massage & Wellness, you are greeted by our kind, compassionate massage therapists. We’ll take you over to a clean, warm room and sit with you to learn more about your body. We wanna hear everything! Old and new injuries, pain, past experience (or no experience) with massage, and any needs/questions/concerns you have. This will allow us create a custom massage to give you the relief you need.
Your comfort is a priority to us, so we will do everything we can to make sure you feel safe and relaxed before we dive into bodywork.
During Your Session
Every body is unique… so our massage therapists create a tailored massage just for you! Using a variety of techniques and modalities, we gently work those tense, stiff, and tender areas. Then, we will expand outward in order to help your body feel loose and deeply relaxed.
Your wellness matters— so we encourage feedback when we are working on painful areas. Need more pressure? Less? No problem. We are here to serve you and assist in your healing.
Aftercare
Once your massage has ended, we’ll give you a moment to ‘wake your body up’ slowly— since our massages can put you in a deeply relaxed state.
Before you head out, we’ll go over some exercises, stretches, or other techniques to use at home to continue alleviating your pain between visits!
Hydrate a ton, and keep up the good work… because we want to see you in less pain, every time.
People We Love
We are so humbled to share our space with some amazing people who offer a wide range of healing practices.

FAQs

Great question! We like to differentiate between the two types of work so that people truly know what to sign up for.
A Massage session with us will include long, flowing strokes, some detailed, more firm work on those tight spots, possibly the use of cupping or Gua Sha, aromatherapy, and hot towels. It’s usually very relaxing and leaves you feeling refreshed and balanced.
A Focused Bodywork Session is just that: focused. The use of modalities like Myofascial Release and Structural Integration really narrow in on old injuries, holding patterns causing pain, or scar tissue to help realign and rebalance the body to help you find relief and increased range of motion.
Feel free to contact us if you have any questions about which type of work would be best for you.
-
At Sevati we recommend booking a massage at minimum once a month. If you have injuries, or are dealing with something that requires a bit more work, we may suggest as often as weekly.
-
At Sevati, your comfort is our priority. We suggest doing things like:
Wear comfortable clothing, hydrate beforehand, shower or bathe a few hours before, listen to calming music on the way over.
These things can help you feel more relaxed, so try whatever feels right for you! -
Sevati requires a 24 hr notice to cancel or reschedule your appointment.
New Clients must pre-pay a 100% deposit towards any service booked. If cancelation is necessary and occurs outside of our 24 hour cancelation period, you will be refunded.

Our massage therapists are happy to work with minors.
Minors under 15 years old must have an accompanying guardian in the building or room at all times. Minors 15 years and older may be unaccompanied. All minors under 18 must have written consent from a guardian to receive treatment.
Sometimes kiddos under 15 do better with shorter treatment times. Please feel free to call ahead and discuss any concerns with our team.
-
To be honest, when we work on a very tight or sensitive area it doesn’t always feel great at first. Sometimes, it’s inevitable to feel some soreness 1-2 days after a session. To do our best to avoid that, we chat with you the entire time, and invite you to share if you need more or less pressure during your session!
-
ABSOLUTELY NOT! Your comfort is so important to us here at Sevati. We may ask you to undress in order to get to those problem areas with oils or tools, but trust us— we massage ALL day long! Please don’t feel embarrassed about the skin you are in. We will do our best to make you feel completely at ease!
-
At Sevati, safety and cleanliness are very important.
Masks are optional at this time. Some of our teammates prefer to wear them during massages to reduce risk of transmission as some of our clientele are immune compromised.
Because we are a high-touch business, we want to decrease the risk of transmission. We ask that you cancel or reschedule your appointment if you are experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms, have been around anyone experiencing COVID symptoms, or have had COVID in the last 14 days.
Thank you for helping us keep each other safe and healthy!
