The Building
What does the studio look like when you pull in?
A single-storey storefront with a brown standing-seam roof, a cobalt bench under the windows and its own paved lot. The sign above the glass carries the tree mark and the phone number, so the building says its own name before you have finished reading the house number.
Kline's Dairy Bar is the landmark. The studio sits about a block north of it on Greenville Avenue — US-11, Staunton's main south-side commercial corridor — and about a quarter of a mile south of the Statler Boulevard junction. The lot runs the width of the property, so there is room to turn up five minutes early.

The Work
What can you book at Healing Touch Body Work?
There are 28 bookable services in 4 families: massage, the signature rituals, sessions for two, and skin, lash and brow work.
If none of the names on the menu describes what your back is doing, book the Custom Massage — it is built in the first five minutes of conversation and can hold Swedish-style flow, deeper focused work on one area, or a few minutes of assisted stretching. Choosing a session for a tight back goes through the same decision at length, and what to expect at a first massage covers the parts nobody mentions in advance: the intake form, the draping and how early to turn up.
Massage
Swedish, deep tissue, Thai combination, Traditional Chinese Tuina, lymphatic-style and prenatal, plus the custom hour most first visits start with. Pressure is a dial you keep hold of the whole session — say the word and it lightens on the next stroke.
Signature rituals
Hot stone, reflexology, cupping, the Detox & Ear Candling Ritual, ear candling with neck massage, the Glow exfoliation and the Therapeutic Bliss hour. Several of the longer massage sessions on the menu include the smooth heated stones at no extra charge.
Sessions for two
Couples Massage puts two tables in one room and includes heated stones for both. Duo Massage books the same hour in two private rooms, which is the right call when one of you wants firm work and the other wants to fall asleep.
Skin, lash and brow
A licensed esthetician works alongside the bodywork team: nine facials from a half-hour cleanse to diamond microdermabrasion, traditional and UV lash extensions and fills, lash lifts and tints, brow shaping, tinting and lamination, and facial and body waxing.
Add-ons attach to a booked massage — heated stones, essential oils, hot towels, Thai stretching, cupping, gua sha, dry brushing and reflexology among them. Two carry rules: the reflexology add-on must accompany a massage, and exfoliation needs a session of 60 minutes or longer.
The Difference
Why do people keep coming back to this studio?
Because the session gets built in conversation. Every client completes a short health intake form before a first visit, the first five minutes decide what the hour does, and the pressure can change halfway through without anyone taking it personally.

The Valley
Where do people drive in from?
Staunton first, and then the towns down US-11 and along I-64. Verona is about 11 minutes away, Fishersville about 13, Waynesboro about 18, and Charlottesville — the longest run anyone makes regularly — about 45 minutes on I-64 over Afton Mountain.
Which side of the road is the door on?
It depends which way you came. 838 sits on the even, west side of US-11. Coming up from the south — Mint Spring, Greenville, Waynesboro and 4 more — the studio is on your left, across the centre two-way turn lane. Coming down from the north — Verona, Fishersville, Churchville and 2 more — it is a right turn straight into the lot.

Scope & Safety
The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health puts the safety question plainly: massage therapy appears to have few risks when performed by a trained practitioner.
Sessions at Healing Touch Body Work are offered for relaxation and general wellness. They do not diagnose, treat or replace medical care. If you are pregnant, managing a health condition, or dealing with pain that is new, severe or getting worse, talk with your physician first — the two work well together.
Book
How do you book a session?
Straight into the Square calendar, at any hour of the day or night, or by phone or text while the studio is open.
If this would be your first massage anywhere, what to expect at a first massage walks through arrival, the intake form and how draping works before you get here. If it is a present, e-gift cards arrive by email within minutes and never expire — gift cards and prepaid packages sets out the options.
