Emily Gatewood Massage

Elevating well being through therapeutic massage

and personalized mind-body fitness.

If you are looking for a massage right away,

please understand I am currently

 booking out several months.

I attended the StillPoint School of Massage in Greenfield, MA. I have over 20 years of experience in professional practice in the states of Massachusetts and Vermont. I became Nationally Certified in 2003.

 

I have completed many specialized trainings over the years, including Sports Massage Therapy, NeuroMuscular therapy, Myofascial Release, postural assessment,  Thai Yoga Massage, and Lomi Lomi massage.

 

I have specific training to work with chronic cervical pain, for headaches, whiplash injury, forward head posture and other chronic pain patterns.

 

I studied Anatomy Trains® with Tom Myers, starting in 2003, whose theories on fascia and connective tissue were ahead of their time. I have worked in chiropractic and osteopathic doctors clinics, and have worked in conjunction with other healthcare practitioners, such as acupuncturists and Feldenkrais® practitioners at WellSpace in Cambridge, MA, and with acupuncturists at Breathing Light in Montpelier, VT.

 

I have experience working in day spa and resort spa settings offering a variety of massage modalities and body treatments.  I have traveled with my table to practice in-home massage and on-site chair massage for large corporations in Boston. I have been self-employed at my studio space in Montpelier since 2009.

 

I joyfully offer pre- and post-natal massage. I use the bodyCushion™ positioning system, which is the best support system on the market for allowing a pregnant woman to lie face down for the duration of her pregnancy or provide side-lying support.

 

I have been practicing pregnancy massage since 1999, but it has been since the birth of my own two children that I have deeper connection with and love of this work. I have experienced both cesarean and VBac births with my own children.

 

I am a licensed and NCBTMB certified massage therapist, a Stott Pilates™ method certified instructor, and an RYT-200 yoga instructor.

Emily lives in Central Vermont with her husband and two spirited children where she organic gardens, raises chickens and makes awesome jam.

Emily's 20 years experience in therapeutic bodywork, combined with her background and training in yoga and Pilates, support you in your desire to be in a body that feels balanced, moves with ease, and is strong and confident. Emily is a licensed and NCBTMB certified massage therapist, a STOTT PILATES™ Method  certified instructor, and an RYT-200 yoga instructor.
