What I love most about my work is seeing my clients experience immediate stress and pain relief. Of course, there is a cumulative effect to the benefits of massage and bodywork, but you will feel better after just one treatment. I opened Massage Plus because I wanted to offer the array of services I know work best for people without being limited to using only certain treatment modalities. Our mission is to promote relaxation, stress relief, and a pain-free lifestyle through massage therapy, bodywork, and energy psychology to support you in achieving optimum physical health and emotional wellness.   Melissa Stefanski PhD, LMBT and Founder of Massage Plus, LLC, hails from Montreal, Canada and began her career in healthcare as a mental health therapist.
