Solutions Massage Therapy

Hello and welcome to Solutions Massage Therapy! I'm Karen Nickols, a certified massage therapist with a passion for using the power of touch to promote health and well-being. I specialize in deep tissue and Swedish massage, reflexology, Tui na, and have also been trained in doTerra's AromaTouch Massage. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Botany from Humboldt State University in Arcata, California, and after graduation, I served in the Peace Corps for three years in El Salvador. It was during this time that I first fully realized the potential of the power of touch when I visited a local healer who was able to alleviate my chronic sciatica.

In 2011, I completed my requirements for the California State Massage Certification in Stockton, California. Solutions Massage Therapy is a reflection of my personal approach to doing massage. I believe in the body's ability to heal, and I also believe that pain and discomfort should not be an accepted way of life. In my pursuit to help my clients achieve a healthy balance, I tailor every massage to meet their unique needs. Whether you seek simple relaxation or relief from chronic pain, my goal is to provide results.

Our Services

At Solutions Massage Therapy, we provide a range of professional massage therapy services to help our clients find the relief and relaxation they need. Our services include:

• Deep Tissue Massage: This type of therapy focuses on realigning deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue. It is especially helpful for chronically tense and contracted areas such as stiff necks, low back tightness, and sore shoulders.
• Reflexology: This is a type of massage that involves applying pressure to specific points on the feet, hands, and ears. It is based on the principle that there are reflex areas in the feet and hands that correspond to every part of the body.
• Swedish or Therapeutic Massage: This type of massage is a gentle form of bodywork that involves long strokes, kneading, friction, vibration, and passive joint movement. It is used to promote relaxation, improve circulation, and release muscle tension.
• Tui na: This is a form of Chinese massage that involves manipulation of the soft tissue, joints, and bones. It is used to promote the flow of Qi (life energy) and blood in the body, and to relieve pain and tension.
• AromaTouch Massage: This is a specific technique that uses doTerra essential oils to promote relaxation, balance, and well-being.
