Paula Cortis LMT
I have been working as a licensed massage therapist in Connecticut, since 2009. During that time, I have had the pleasure of working along side many other amazing and talented practitioners. (body workers, physical therapists and chiropractors) For several years, I had an office space in East Windsor-(Peaceful Waves Therapeutic Massage).
The pandemic, changed things for many of us. After covid happened, I shifted things a bit and worked for a few years, as a caregiver for family and friends. I am happy to be part of Dr. Joyce’s team. I believe that Chiropractic work and therapeutic massage, complement each other very well. I have always believed that these two modalities have a very positive, codependent relationship. Both are highly beneficial, and if done regularly, can be an effective form of preventative maintenance, that can help us all to stay healthier and stay mobile, for the long-haul.
​
For the most part, I believe in natural medicine and holistic healing, as a way of life. I believe that stretching, and drinking LOTS of water should be a mandatory part of everybody’s daily routine.
The focus of my work, is primarily to help to alleviate the negative effects, that our day to day repetitive actions, & physical/mental stressors, have on our bodies.
Although my sessions are mostly deep tissue in nature, my massages are not necessarily always heavy pressure. Every individual is different. We all have different needs. I like to use an integrative approach that may include myofascial work, range of motion and light stretching techniques, mild energy work, trigger point work, and a touch of Swedish massage thrown in here and there as well.
Each session is always designed for your own specific circumstances. It is always a team effort. My hope is that when you leave, you will feel a little lighter, move a bit more fluidly, and have some sense of peace that you can carry with you throughout your day.

With therapeutic massage, Generally, more time is needed to work on multiple areas of the body that need attention. If you are requesting a full body massage that is not strictly for relaxation, then 90 minutes is recommended. Often times if there are multiple areas of the body that you’re having concerns with, 60 minutes may not be enough time to address them all.
