Solo Restore Thai Massage, New York

What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition? I offer Wellness & Yoga coaching specializing in Anxiety and Insomnia. My approach is creating a safe space for my clients to feel heard, seen, and supported. I guide my clients with breathing exercise, meditation, Hatha Yoga combined with my knowledge as a massage therapist and diet and lifestyle. I practice mindfulness and always teach my clients to do the same: to listen to their body and, most importantly, to live with intention. Every session can be different from the last and clients who are more in tune can ask for what they need, or I can guide them more if they don’t know.

What was the inspiration to start or run this business? “I’ve been a licensed massage therapist since 2012 and I was always passionate about informing people on how to manage their own wellbeing. Coaching is a beautiful transition where I can hold people accountable if they need support in applying changes step by step and living more harmoniously with themselves and others.

What do you love most about your job? Coaching is an equal exchange and partnership. I love listening to people and meeting people where they are. The best part is seeing the changes that people have made.

What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer? The best thing reaction is “I feel validated and understood by you, Jess. Thank you for listening to me!” It always touches my heart when I hear things like that from clients.
