New Awakenings Massage

I am a Licensed Massage Therapist in Kingston, NY who specializes in working closely with my clients in Ulster County, Dutchess County, and throughout the Hudson Valley. I graduated from the Finger Lakes School of Massage in 2003 and have taken numerous Continuing Education courses to improve my skill set.

Pamela Marshall, LMT, is the sole proprietor of New Awakenings Massage. Unlike many Spa experiences (where there are multiple therapists), when you book with New Awakenings, you do so knowing that you will always see the same therapist. This makes for a better all-around experience for the client. Each appointment can build on the information gathered and physical response achieved from the previous session, resulting in a more positive outcome with each session.Your initial visit will include some paperwork and an "intake" where you will be asked about your health history and general lifestyle habits.

Medical or Therapeutic Massage, focuses specifically on an area of tension or injury to help release spasms and trigger points, loosen "frozen" ligaments, or to help facilitate healing and to reduce scar tissue. The therapist may work in the area where the pain is experienced, but will often work on other seemingly unrelated areas that may be causing or contributing to the problem due to Trigger Points and muscular/skeletal imbalances.

Relaxation Massage is a generally lighter technique, such as Swedish Massage. Long smooth strokes, pressure that is deeply relaxing but not painful, kneading, rocking, and tapotament (light pummeling) may be employed. Relaxation massage is all about relaxing. It focuses on giving the client time to recover from the stresses of daily life.
