Melanie Peterson, LMT
Melanie expertly locates and addresses areas of tension and adhesion in the body, delicately unwinding areas of discomfort for deep relaxation and pain relief. Restorative Massage, is a culmination of Melanie's extensive training in Therapeutic Massage, Craniosacral Therapy, Cupping, Manual Lymphatic Drainage, Thai Foot Reflexology, Prenatal Massage, and Yoga Teaching. Her core belief is that massage should not be painful, and the deepest, most profound and effective massages stem from the nervous system's ability to release tension through trust and relaxation.

New Clients
If you are a new client with a gift card to redeem and you are having trouble booking online, please contact me to reserve your first appointment. I am accepting new clients on a rolling basis as my schedule allows. For FAQs and information on joining the wait-list, please visit www.jpwellness.co. All new clients must prepay for their first session. Moving forward, you are free to pay as you go. This policy helps protect me from no-shows and scammers. If you cancel your first session and want a refund, it will be minus the CC processing fee.
I only work with adults. Any clients who are unable to get on and off the massage table without assistance will need to have someone accompanying them to assist their transfers. I cannot transfer clients from wheelchairs on/off the table due to my own injuries.
Cancellation Policy
FULL PAYMENT IS REQUIRED FOR THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:
- Less than 24-hour notice for cancellation or rescheduling, regardless of emergency or illness. However, if I am able to fill your appointment from my wait-list, you will not be charged. TEXT ME ASAP 617-871-0278 if you need to cancel (even if you wake up sick at 2:00AM).
- No-show or missed appointment, regardless of emergency or illness.
- Late arrivals may result in shortened treatment duration, you will still need to pay for the full amount of time that you reserved.
- Refusal of service for clients with obvious signs of contagious illness. A negative CV-19 test is great, but I don't want to catch and share with my other clients any cold or flu either. Thank you for considering the safety and health of our community.
