about
us
The mood and presence of Belisama Bodyworks is unusual and worth explaining. We are a group of massage therapists who work together to create a space that is welcoming, positive, and relaxing. We consider our work to be “world peace, one body at a time” (to quote Milton Trager). Each therapist brings their own unique style, yet we are united by a common purpose: to provide thoughtful, restorative care for every client who walks through our doors.
​
Massage is a highly effective treatment for a wide range of conditions, promoting both physical and mental well-being. To learn more about the benefits of massage therapy, visit amtamassage.org.
We invite you to explore our therapist bios and experience sessions with different practitioners. No two massages are ever the same, but one thing remains constant—you’ll leave feeling more centered, relaxed, and reconnected with yourself. Discover what makes Belisama Bodyworks a truly special place.
