Meet Your Massage Therapist!
Hello my name is Shuana Yang. I am a Massage Therapist located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. My journey began in 2019! I first discovered my love for holistic health and wellness through massage therapy as an elective course I took in college. As I continued to further my education in the holistic health field, I had the opportunity to experience how healing therapeutic touch is; physically, mentally, and emotionally! I learned how much it heals, to heal. Over the years, I found that in several ethnic groups (for generations) healthy touch is not something that’s commonly practice in house holds. This is something I want to change, and normalize one step at a time by holding a safe space to reiterate touch and healing through Massage Therapy! My goal is to hold a safe space for you to reach your full state of Ataraxis. I look forward to meeting you, and being of assist in your healing journey!
Q&A’S!
Q: It’s my first time, what can I expect?
A: Upon Arrival you will be greated. A intake form will be filled out regarding your health history. We’ll discuss any concerns or questions you may have, as well as the focused areas and goals of your personalized session. After your intake form, the therapist will ask you to undress to your comfort level. You will be properly covered and professionally draped at all times. The therapist will only drape the areas that is being worked on. What ever clothing that is left on, may result in residue from the massage product used. Your therapist will then instruct you to lay under the covers, starting with your face up facing the ceiling. If you ever feel uncomfortable, need the temperature adjusted, need to blow your nose, or you need to use the restroom during your session feel free to let your therapist know! Before the massage session, your therapist will step out to wash their hands, and knock and ask before stepping back in. During your massage session your therapist will be checking in on you regularly. After the massage session the therapist will instruct you to get up slowly while they step out, give you time to dress, and the therapist goes wash their hands.

A: No! Massage Therapist’s are trained to work on top of clothing!
