About Us

Our Philosophy & Values

At SOMA Massage & Wellness, we believe professionalism, integrity, and great customer service are essential to a thriving practice. Our goal is to provide the highest quality bodywork at an affordable price, making self-care accessible and consistent rather than occasional.

We see bodywork as more than relaxation—it is a pathway back to balance. Each treatment is thoughtfully designed to help release tension, calm the nervous system, and restore a deep sense of ease. Whether you are seeking therapeutic relief or restorative rest, our experienced practitioners tailor every session to what your body needs in that moment.

Our work is rooted in listening first—honoring the body’s intelligence and meeting each client with care, skill, and presence.

Integrity in Care
We practice with honesty, clear communication, and strong ethical standards, always prioritizing your well-being.

Professional Excellence
Our licensed therapists are highly trained and committed to ongoing education and effective, thoughtful bodywork.

Accessibility & Sustainability
We believe wellness should be attainable. Our approach supports ongoing care, not just temporary relief.

Human Connection
We create safe, respectful, and inclusive spaces where healing is supported through kindness and trust.

Balance Over Force
We work with the body—not against it—supporting lasting results through presence, patience, and skilled touch.

We invite you to slow down, breathe deeply, and experience the restorative power of mindful, intentional care.

About SOMA Massage & Wellness

At SOMA Massage & Wellness, we believe that exceptional care is built on professionalism, integrity, and genuine human connection. Every experience is guided by thoughtful attention, skilled hands, and a commitment to making you feel welcomed, heard, and supported.

Our goal is simple: to offer high-quality therapeutic services at an accessible price point—so caring for your body doesn’t feel like a luxury, but a sustainable part of your life. Whether you’re seeking relief from pain, a moment to slow down, or ongoing support for your well-being, SOMA is a place where balance begins.

Balance begins here.

A Founder’s Note

SOMA was founded by Julie Wright, a Licensed Massage Therapist with over two decades of hands-on experience in therapeutic bodywork. Julie created SOMA with the belief that massage should be both clinically effective and deeply human—rooted in listening, trust, and respect for the body’s innate wisdom.

After years of working one-on-one with clients, she saw a need for a space that made consistent care accessible without sacrificing quality or integrity. SOMA was born from that vision: a welcoming wellness center where skilled practitioners, thoughtful service, and fair pricing come together to support long-term well-being.

Experience you can trust.
