Before the session, your therapist will ask you how you are feeling and what your needs are for this session. You will then work together to determine what you will be working on for that session.
Your therapist will leave the room to provide you the privacy to undress down to your comfort level- underwear on or nude are acceptable for table massage- and will knock on the door first to make sure you’re ready.
Modesty and boundaries are highly respected. You will ALWAYS be completely draped throughout the session except for area being actively treated.
Your therapist may check in during the session to ask how the pressure is working for you; any feedback will improve your overall experience.
When the session is over, your therapist will once again leave the room for you to get dressed and will check in after to see how you’re feeling and to discuss future treatments. We encourage clients to ask any questions about the treatment process and to voice if something is uncomfortable.
All of our Massage Therapists are Licensed through the State of Michigan.

Ronda Ellis, CMT, LMT
Hello! My name is Ronda Ellis, and I am a proud 2023 graduate of the Creative Therapy School of Massage. From the very beginning, I’ve been passionate about helping others heal, relax, and feel their absolute best.
I specialize in relaxation massage, creating soothing, restorative sessions that allow clients to release stress and recharge. At the same time, I am skilled in a variety of modalities, which means I can adapt to each client’s unique needs and goals. My approach is always centered on professionalism, compassion, and the belief that massage can be both deeply healing and empowering.
When I’m not in the treatment room, I love spending quality time with my daughter Avery, exploring nature, practicing meditation, reading, and visiting one of my favorite places—Chicago! These experiences fuel my energy and help me bring balance and warmth to my work. Ronda is available after 5pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays!
