I’m Holly Joy, a licensed Massage Therapist born and raised in Traverse City, Michigan. For years, I’ve been devoted to helping clients find relief from physical pain and emotional stress through the transformative power of Massage Therapy.

A Compassionate Journey: From Healing Loss to Supporting Wellness

At 15, I lost my father, an experience that profoundly shaped my understanding of grief and the toll it takes on body and mind. Watching my mother navigate the challenges of loss, work, and family gave me deep empathy for those facing life-altering changes.

Through those experiences, I came to recognize the deep connection between physical and emotional well-being, especially during times of stress and transition. This realization led me to Massage Therapy, where I blend ancient wisdom with intentional bodywork to promote healing from within.

A Holistic Approach: Nurturing Body, Mind, and Spirit

I work with women, particularly those over 40, who are navigating physical and emotional shifts after major life events, healing from injury or work jobs that affect posture and muscle tightness. My clients often come to me with tension in the neck and shoulders, seeking relief from upper body pain, including TMJ symptoms like headaches and jaw pain. Additionally, I offer lymphatic drainage to reduce fluid congestion, ease edema, and support detoxification and recovery.

Whether you’re seeking relief from pain or wanting to decompress, I create a customized experience tailored to your needs, enhanced with optional essential oils or therapeutic CBD for full-body wellness.

Your Massage Experience: Relax, Heal, and Reconnect

When you enter my studio, we begin with a thoughtful conversation to understand your needs and goals. Together, we design your massage experience, ensuring it aligns with your personal preferences and well-being. Imagine lying on a heated massage table, soft music playing, while I use a variety of techniques to release tension and restore balance to your body, mind, and spirit.

My mission is to guide you toward balance—alleviating pain, restoring comfort, and nurturing the alignment of body, mind, and soul.

Let’s start your journey to healing and self-discovery together.
