Optionally enhance your therapeutic or relaxation massage with a wide range of thoughtful customizations designed to deepen comfort, ease tension, and create a more immersive experience without the added cost. From soothing heat and calming aromas to targeted tools and harmonic vibration, these all-inclusive options are offered as part of your session and can be incorporated to support relaxation, relieve tension, and help you leave feeling fully restored.
Essential Oils
Enhance your session with aromatherapy tailored to you. You can note fragrance preferences or sensitivities, choose from my extensive premium collection, or simply tell me the vibe you want and I’ll select the best match for the moment. Essential oils can help set the tone—grounding, uplifting, calming, or clearing—while you melt into the table.
Therapeutic Oils
For clients who want targeted support, therapeutic oils can be incorporated into bodywork with intention. Options include locally made CBD, magnesium and tiger balm used to complement focused work on stubborn tension areas and recovery support. This add-on is ideal when you want your session to feel both soothing and purpose-driven.
Hot Packs on the Back
Hot packs add a comforting weight and deep penetrating heat that helps muscles soften faster. The steady warmth can calm the nervous system and make deeper work feel more tolerable and effective. It’s a simple upgrade that often makes the whole massage feel more “ahhhh” from the first few minutes.
Warm Bamboo
Warm bamboo is a smooth, flowing heat-based technique that helps relax tissue while allowing broad, even pressure. The warmth of both encourages circulation and softening, while the bamboo tools can help glide through larger muscle groups efficiently. Great for clients who love heat and want a deeply relaxing, full-body feel.
Hot Stones
Hot stones bring deep, enveloping warmth that helps muscles let go without forcing pressure. I use basalt and Himalayan salt stones to deliver smooth heat and a luxurious glide that sinks in slowly and steadily. This is perfect when you want that full-body exhale—warmth, softness, and deep relaxation.
Heated Muscle Scraping
This option uses heat plus focused tool work to address areas that feel stuck, tight, or “glued down.” Heated muscle scraping can help improve tissue mobility and break up that stubborn, crunchy feeling from overuse or stress patterns. Expect a targeted approach that’s precise, effective, and paired with care for comfort.
Harmonic Body Work
Harmonic Body Work uses targeted frequencies and vibrations through the table to relax the mind and muscles, focus on specific goals, or deepen the overall parasympathetic “reset.” Sessions can be customized for grounding, stress release, chakras, or a more meditative experience.
Red Light Therapy
Including targeted red light therapy in a massage session can support the body’s natural healing process by helping to reduce inflammation and encourage circulation in specific areas of tension or discomfort. It works at a cellular level to promote tissue repair, which may enhance recovery from muscle strain or overuse. When paired with massage, it can deepen relaxation, ease soreness, and create a more comprehensive approach to pain relief and overall wellness.
What Clients Say
If you have been following my story on caring for my late wife, I found Holly Joy about a year ago to resolve the pain in my arms and back. With my wife in hospices care at home required me to doing lots of lifting of her in and out of her chair, bed etc. This was a 24/7 job for nearly two years. Thought I was up to the job even being 75 years old. Well I was but suffered a little.
Looking for resolution in my pain I did a search on Google and found Holly Joy just the other side of Kalkaska. Having just bought a new car it gave me some seat time to get enjoy my new car.
On Holly's website, you have the option to choose the time and date of the session. Then you choose the type of treatment. i.e. Therapeutic, relaxation, lymphatic drainage or intuitive infusion etc. Then you can choose the length of the massage and add foot and scalp treatments. Then you have options of the oils that she will use. What more could you ask for. You will rise after the end of your session completely refreshed.
Now after a year of having a session every other week the pains I had in my upper torso have completed subsided. What a relief.
Give it a try. You have to start somewhere. It worked for me. Good luck.
Holly is a soft spoken lady that is all business. Thank you Holly and I'm looking forward to my next session. Gerry
Location and facility was perfect as well!
