Compassionate Care Through Touch
"No single therapeutic agent can be compared in efficiency with this familiar but perfect tool...the human hand. If half as much research had been expended on the principles governing manual treatment as upon pharmacology, the hand would be esteemed today on a par with drugs in acceptability and power."
J. Madison Taylor, M.D. 1908

The simple and timeless act of "laying on of hands" is for me what this is all about and where the healing occurs. There is something so profoundly sacred in this exchange. It does not need to be proven nor researched. I trust this process and I am beyond fortunate and humbled to call this my work.

Therapeutic MassageTherapeutic massage is tranquil, soothing and simply unforgettable. A massage need not leave you in pain to be effective. This treatment is the ideal antidote for a sore, stressed out you. Its purpose is to help balance your sense of well-being by relaxing the body, relieving the mind and soothing the soul.

Pain Management
Therapeutic massage can be used to treat a range of conditions, the most common of which is low back pain, followed by neck and upper back/shoulder pain. I also use therapeutic massage to treat headaches, jaw pain and Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMJ), Sciatica and other conditions.

Ginny is truly an amazing healer. I have been going monthly for 90 minutes for over five years. I am upright and grateful after every massage. She is compassionate and truly takes the time to know you and your body. She finds the spots and takes care of them. I am a middle aged woman who spent years abusing my body running now I cycle. She keeps me pain free and moving. I would be a wreck without her treatments. Give her a try and you too will be hooked. It’s wonderful to feel good and able to enjoy the beauty of everyday!

"Immaculately clean and sanitized environment with excellent customer service."
"Virginia is an amazing gifted healer and an amazing massage therapist. She is very professional with the highest standards." |
I have been seeing Ginny for some time now for chronic back pain. I have to say I have not felt this great in such a long time!!! I have seen multiple massage therapist in the past but NO ONE compares to Ginny. She takes you in, talks to you before each session to go over your general health and then works her magic. You will never feel more comfortable and relaxed! I highly recommend sacred healing for your overall well being.

Virginia was a god-send. I came to the Vineyard to recover after a lumpectomy. Unfortunately I had developed a seroma and thought I’d have to cancel. My surgeon encouraged me to go on the trip and told me to find a doctor to drain it, if it got bad. It did, but I had trouble finding a local doctor who would see me. I thought I’d have to cut my trip short. Somehow I found Virginia who does lymphatic massage for oncology patients. Her work has reduced the swelling, kept the seroma under control, and kept me out of the hospital. She is a true healer, and a wonderful person.
