Where Are You Located?

Elysian Palms Massage & Spa Suite is located in Castello Professional Center at 1044 Castello Dr. Suite 102 Naples, FL 34103

I am located right off of US-41 (Tamiami Trail N) via Pine Ridge Road, ten minutes west of I-75 via Pine Ridge Road, ten minutes north of Downtown Naples and 5th Avenue South, and 35 minutes south of Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) via I-75. Neighborhood landmarks are the Hilton Naples Hotel, Clam Pass Park, and Waterside Shops.

The office is inside of Naples Pilates, Fitness, and Therapeutics.

What Are Your Hours?

I am available to see you for in office services by appointment 10am to 8pm daily. I do have some flexibility for earlier hours in office (6am to 9am), or after hours (10pm to 1am) at your home or hotel in the instances of emergencies, travel day relief, or if your work schedule does not allow you to schedule within listed hours at an additional rate of $200 for that premium accommodation.

What do You Provide?

I provide professional relaxation and therapeutic massage, skin care treatments, and customized facials.

All practices are science-based and conducted in accordance with Florida State Massage Therapy laws and the regulations of the Department of Business and Professional Regulation.

What do You NOT Provide?

Diagnoses of medical conditions, medical prescriptions or instructions outside of massage therapy, chiropractic adjustments, cosmetic procedures, or sexual activity of any kind.

Is An Intake Form Really Necessary?

Yes. I require a self-provided health assessment and signed consent to work on you. Its really important that you provide as much information as you can about your current health, injuries, conditions, chronic pain, or medications you currently take (i.e. blood thinners) so that I can safely provide a massage for you. An Intake is required for all new clients before the your first treatment and I will review for any changes once per year for existing clients.

Is There A shower Inside Of Your Facility?

While there is a spotlessly clean lavatory steps away from the table, there is no shower facility in this office. Oils and creams are applied in an intentional manner and hot towel treatments are applied and offered at the conclusion of each session to remove any residue so you feel refreshed and ready to return to your day or least comfortable enough to make it home to your shower at home or the gym.

Should I Bathe prior To Arrival?

You should arrive in whatever state you feel comfortable arriving in.

You wanna play a round of golf before your massage? Come in. You have Barre class scheduled before your massage? Come in. Worked all day? Come in.

If you prefer to freshen up before your massage that is your choice but it is not my insistence or a requirement, unless you have chlorine on your skin (please rinse off after pool swimming before arrival). Keep in mind that bathing in very hot water just prior to a massage could leave you feeling light-headed or faint post massage.

I will take care of you exactly as you are, however your schedule or comfort level permits.

What should I Wear?

For a table massage you should wear comfortable clothes that are easy for you to get in and out of (think comfy clothes, loose fitted, active wear etc.). If you wear jewelry pieces that are removable consider leaving them at home for your session so that you don’t have to fret about the possibility of taking it off and losing it. I do have a little jewelry tray for you so that you can place them in a visible and routine place when you visit. I understand if there are pieces which you never remove and I can and will work around them. But if you are wearing a necklace, chain, bracelet, or anklet for the day for fashion, I would ask that you please take it off for your massage.

Will I Be Getting Undressed?

You will be getting undressed to your comfort level. For most people that means leaving underwear or panties on, while removing undershirts or bras. For others that means completely nude. If you would prefer to keep a bra or bikini top on that is perfectly okay.

After we go over your intake, expectations and preferences, I will excuse myself to the lobby and place a pager on the table top. You will undress to your comfort level and arrange yourself on the table, underneath the sheet and blanket, and press the button on the pager at which point I will re-enter the room.

Will I be Draped?

You will be draped for the entirety of the massage or facial. When you’re on my table I will preserve your modesty at all times. I will treat your body as I expect my body to be treated when I’m receiving a massage - with the utmost respect.

Stretching only sessions and chair massage can be performed while you’re fully dressed or with the removal of your shirt or shoes.

What if I Prefer To Not Be Draped?

Florida Law:

"Draping" means the act of applying a drape or drapes to the patient's body for massage therapy treatment. Appropriate draping includes coverage of the genitalia, groin, femoral triangle, anus, buttocks, gluteal cleft, and breasts at all times unless the patient gives specific informed consent to be undraped and written specific informed consent is noted in the patient's treatment plan.

Fla. Admin. Code R. 64B7-23.001

If you prefer that your breasts (chest), femoral triangle, or buttocks remain undraped it will be discussed and noted in your treatment plan notes. You will be required to sign your treatment plan indicating that you have provided informed consent.

At no point will I provide a massage therapy treatment with your genitalia, groin, anus, or the full length of your gluteal cleft exposed.‍ ‍

Can I Decline Having A certain Part of My Body Massaged?

Absolutely. Remember: I provide fully customizable massage. I do have a style, or flow, and after our consultation I will have an idea of how I would like to approach your massage or body treatment. However, this is about you, not me- and I never lose sight of that. If you don’t care to have your face, scalp, arms, hands, or feet touched I will be mindful of that. If you are preferring that your time be concentrated on your back, or your shoulders, or your legs etc. I can do that! All you have to do is share your preferences at the beginning of the session (or even more ideally prior to arrival with your online booking so I can really prepare for you).

On another note, I find that sometimes people are shy about receiving say, a foot massage, because they haven’t recently had a pedicure or they’re fearful that I will be offended by an odor. Please do not insist on leaving your socks on for a reason like this. Time on my table is time in which you will be methodically cared for without reservation or judgement. I want you to receive the full benefit of a relaxation massage without anxiety or self-consciousness.

I’m Large/Tall, Can I Get A Massage?

My table is 73 inches in length (6 feet and 1 inch), and 30 inches wide (2 feet and 6 inches). The table has a weight limit of 750 lbs!

Come get a massage, this is all body-friendly bodywork.

I’m Pregnant, Can I Get A Massage?

Yes, I am Prenatal Certified and would love to take care of you. I utilize side-lying positioning but may introduce a full body pregnancy bolster so that you may lay facedown in the near future. I provide Prenatal Massage for guests in the 2nd and 3rd trimester; please consult with your doctor to be cleared for any earlier. Prenatal massages are performed with soft to medium pressure only. Mobile prenatal massage appointments are available.

My Child Needs A Massage, Can We Come In?

Children and young adults (all minors under the age of eighteen unless illegally emancipated) may visit the Spa Suite with a parent / guardian present for the entirety of the massage. Children under the age of 14 are limited to 30 minutes sessions and they must be fully clothed (i.e. shorts and a t-shirt, or a swimsuit) for the duration of the massage.

What Floor Are You Located On? Is There An Elevator?

As of June 2026 Elysian Palms is now located on the first floor with no stairs. My office is located steps from the unit entrance. Entry is very easy and accessible to all.

Are You Available To Come To My Home, Hotel, Resort, or Office?

I offer both in-office table massage and on-site table & chair massage services. On-site or out-call massage is available in your home, office, hotel or resort.

Prepaid Frequent Appointments: For clients who schedule frequent (weekly or bi-weekly) appointments prepaid in a packages of ten, I can purchase a massage table for your convenience at no additional cost. This way, you can store your own dedicated table, and I can simply arrive with my backpack!

On-Site Chair Massage: I'm also available to provide fully dressed chair massages for groups, parties, offices, and events. This is a great option for promoting relaxation and stress relief in a social setting, without a massage table.

Please inquire for more details and pricing on any of these services.

What Methods of Payment Do you Accept?

I accept all major credit and debit cards and cash. I do not accept insurance payments at this time, but I can provide you with detailed receipts and treatment notes for reimbursement. You are welcome to prepay but you are not required to do so nor do I currently require deposits.

should I tip?

In a chain, resort, or day spa where massage therapists receive about 20-30% of what you’re charged, tipping 15-25% of the service is customary as much of their income (like U.S. restaurant servers) is derived from gratuities. However, I am an independent, self-employed massage therapist - I set my own pricing, and 100% of your service fee goes to me.

It is my wish for you to come enjoy a relaxing session without worry that I have an expectation of a tip. We’re all tip-toeing around tip fatigue - isn’t it nice to know exactly what the expectation is without additional considerations?

Please come in and relax :-) - flat pricing is guaranteed.

Thank You And Welcome To Elysian Palms!
