ABOUT US
IMPORTANT!! READ BEFORE BOOKING ANY SERVICES!!!! Hello, I am Sonya Barge. I graduated from the Academy of Massage Therapy and Bodyworks in Pottstown, PA. I am a state board certified LMT. I own and operate my business, Wild One Massage LLC. I specialize in therapeutic massage, trauma informed massage, pain management, Tui-na & Integrated Manual Lymphatic Drainage which are both Chinese medical massage. My ideal clientele is someone who wants to go all in and take their healing journey seriously. They want to take the holistic route and find alternative ways such as bodywork to release old stories from their hearts. This client is working towards finding not just physical touch therapy as a release but also emotional support, discovery of breathwork and neuroscience connection to work on healing the mind, body, and soul as a whole. We as humans store emotional discomfort in our bodies ie. tension or in Tradition Chinese Medicine (TCM), stagnation in the organs ie. the lung meridians or liver meridian or stagnate Qi. My approach to treating the body is integrative and gentle. Each body tells a story. I allow the client I'm working on, for their energy and body to meet my hands and my intuition guides me to work from their story and what they are allowing me energetically to work on based on their breath patterns. When I speak to the client about their discomforts or the reason they come to me, I also read your body language and the way you walk and stand. Massage Therapy isn't just about working on muscles for an allotted amount of time. It's an energetic experience, a healing journey, a story that's being told. I hold space for the client that is willing to be present with themselves so that they can understand that they are just as much a part of the experience and healing as I am creating space and moving circulation for the body, mind, and spirit within to reconnect as a whole. You're doing the work with being present and breathing. I am accepting new clients that are ready to maintain their healing journey with massage therapy with focus on movement medicine also known as yoga. If you're serious about your wellness, take care of yourself and schedule a session with Sonya. ▶️ First time clients/NON-MEMBERS Effective immediately!!! ⏩ Pay a $50 non-refundable deposit for all appointments. ⏩ Deposit applied towards your service ⏩ Should you cancel or no show for your appointment, deposit is forfeited. ⏩ Cancel less than 24 hours notice- Requirement to Pay invoice in FULL. !!Members!!

Every client MUST sign their liability form every calendar year. 📣Please read through ALL services and the descriptions as every service is tailored to specific needs. Book the services accordingly. 📣 ⚪ Trauma informed massage ⚪ Trauma-informed massage therapy is a client-centered approach that prioritizes safety, trust, and bodily autonomy to avoid retraumatization. Rather than a specific technique, it is a framework where the therapist emphasizes clear communication, ongoing informed consent, and the client’s control over the session. It helps clients regulate their nervous system, reconnect with their bodies, and manage stress or PTSD symptoms in a supportive environment, often utilizing techniques like grounding and avoiding invasive touch. 🟡Manual lymphatic drainage🟡 MLD is a gentle, specialized massage technique designed to stimulate the natural flow of lymph fluid, reducing swelling and aiding detoxification. It uses light, rhythmic, skin-stretching strokes—never deep pressure—to move fluid from congested areas to functional lymph nodes, often used for lymphedema and post-surgical recovery. Integrated Manual Lymphatic Drainage massage (MLD) - MLD is for clients with auto-immune disease, hormone imbalance, swelling, edema, or post surgery. It is a medical grade massage that requires a treatment plan. You must schedule a consultation FIRST to determine the best treatment plan as these sessions recommend being seen every week for 8 weeks and the reevaluation after the completed sessions. A combination of tools used are silicone cups, essential oils, gua sha, acupressure, and lymphatic pumps. 🔴Integrative relief session🔴 - this service is for pain management and maintenance. Tools included with the service are cupping, Himalayan salt stones, marble cold stones, and gua sha. I do not focus on deep tissue massage. I assess the body as a full and integrate depth vs. pressure. It's important that your body responds to the treatment, not resist. Your body tends to guard muscles when the nervous system is working too hard to relax. 🟠Ayurvedic massage 🟠session-a relaxing yet effective massage experience using essential oils with a carrier oil/lotion. Pressure from light to medium. Benefits help relax the client or enliven depending on choice of oil, helps with inflammation and pain. Hemp-infused plant medicine is very beneficial for pain and inflammation. My brand of plant medicine will help you take a nice nap afterwards. So if you'd like a relaxing holistic approach, this is it! Tools included with services---- 🔵Tuina🔵 is a traditional Chinese medicine approach to massage. It's an ancient, proven technique that treats at a deeper level vs. surface level. Tuina targets the whole, affecting the mind, body, and spirit of the client by moving the bio-magnetic life force called Qi or prana. It treats muscular -skeletal issues but also balances emotional with physical issues getting at the cause of stress. It addresses chronic illnesses, organ & tissue dysfunctions, and myofascial pain. This massage is performed without lotion or oil and is done preferably clothed in t-shirt, shorts, or loose pants that can be rolled up to the knee. This is preventative medicine said to help energize the client to add longevity to their life. 🟣Cupping session🟣 - a tool used in massage therapy - plastic & or silicone cups are used and moved on the area of focus, and movement is incorporated with the placement of the cups.
