New Rates Sep. 1, 2024
I am and always have been humbled and honored by your support and trust. Please know that you continue to inspire me to do better. I'll always want to help you and it is indeed a privilege helping you.
Here are some announcements, effective Sep. 1, 2024:
- New Rates For My Brick City Spa Clients:
- 60 mins $100
- 75 mins $120
- 90 mins $140
- Lomi Lomi 3 hrs $350
- Gratuity-free policy will be in place. I will no longer be accepting tips. This is something I've wanted to create for years, but now seems the right time.
- Tipping sometimes ends up in an awkward transaction.
- Some people become overwhelmed by the costs that incur from services.
- Now, you will know exactly what it will cost to come see me at Brick City Spa.
- Massage Therapy is considered a personal service (which usually accepts tips) but therapeutic touch is also adjacent to healthcare and it doesn't seem appropriate to accept tips while working with your well-being.
- That being said, I have never nor will I change your treatment based on a tip, so I would rather accept what I need to ensure my craft stays pure.
- An alternative tip, if you feel compelled which I know some will, is a referral.
- If you've given me a tip in the past, I have always appreciated it -- thank you!
- Some exciting news. Your all-inclusive massage therapy session will be enhanced by the following new amenities:
-
- Crystal Far Infrared Heat Mat with PEMF, for deep relaxation and calming the nervous system
- CBD and CBG oils, topical applications for pain relief and inflammation.
- Luxury Linens
- Belkin Dual Wireless Charging Pad, by your chair.
Your massage therapy experience has always been an all-inclusive session and will continue to be so. I've never had a menu of various modalities and pricing. It's always been one rate. I've never posted an upcharge for aromatherapy and CBD oils, either. I love using cool stuff such as magnesium creams. muscle ointments and aura mists. A combination of any or all are utilized during your session.
Every visit is an integrative massage therapy session that derives from over 15 years of knowledge, wisdom and experience practicing massage therapy. Not only do I enjoy the creative freedom and flexibility of integrating various modalities, I believe this ensures you receive whatever it is you need.
I look forward to helping you relax and ease pain, I'm here to help you. ~ Lyn
P.S. For those struggling to break away from tipping me, you can dooo it. I appreciate you, too!
Your Investment On Your Wellness
I love giving people their very first massage therapy session.
Cash, personal check and Venmo are accepted. Debit and credit cards are not accepted.
An Integrative Approach
Every session is customized, for you and I would create a unique and holistic healing experience together.
A full body relaxation massage is a wonderfully soothing and restorative experience to relieve muscle tension. It is a quiet session and the techniques involve soft, long gliding and kneading strokes flowing from one part of the body to the next. You just may fall asleep, which would be a great thing, for deep relaxation helps heal the body, mind and spirit.
A focused session addresses a specific complaint of an area or two in the body for pain relief. The goal is to release holding patterns in muscles by unwinding fascia (connective tissue beneath the skin) with deep tissue work.
- Connective Tissue Therapy releases the restrictions of fascia rather than working directly on muscles. Through gentle sustained pressure to stretch and lengthen fascia, CTT helps fascia become more hydrated and elastic.
- Neuromuscular Therapy technique include static pressure on trigger points (hyperirritable spots aka knots) in order to release and "melt" the tissue rather than employing forceful methods to release and relax the spasms.
Deep tissue therapy is about slowly stretching and sinking into the deeper layers of tissue. There is no pummeling and mashing of muscles. Expect some communication on pressure for your feedback is invaluable. Deep tissue work is relaxing, enjoyable and unhurried.
Aromatherapy is the use of aromatic plant extracts and essential oils to further enhance your holistic healing experience. Aromatherapy is available at every session, with no upcharges.
Your room is beautifully decorated and designed for stress relief. Draping with a sheet and blanket protects your modesty and ensure you feel safe, warm, and comforted.

My Facebook name is Lyn Lyn. I do not use my full name anymore because of the various creepy males inappropriately contacting me, it's probably all fake accounts. Once, I changed my profile name to Lyn Lyn, the creeps stopped messaging me, however as we all know, they still posts on public spaces on our walls. I try to delete them, when I can. I want all of us to feel safe.
I often post about stress relief, health & wellness, massage therapy, anatomy & physiology, aromatherapy, dogs, cats, comedy, dancing -- fun stuff. Oh! And food!!

We reserve the right to charge for the full session, whether or not the services was rendered.
We are not a massage parlor, we are a licensed massage establishment. We are not masseuse/masseur, we are licensed massage therapists.
Intrusive personal questions, inappropriate requests, BEHAVIOR, comments, and refusal to respect the stated boundaries in the session are considered suspicious behaviors of human trafficking.
