Working with Isaac

All About Isaac…

Isaac’s first foray into the world of alternative health started with plant identification and tea making when he was 12. He’s come a long way from there when he received his NH Massage License in September 2025 (his massage career in Vermont starting in August of that year). He is also a certified herbalist since 2011, and has been a Reiki practitioner since 2008. His practice focuses on therapeutic massage, but his work is informed and integrative with his history of herbalism and energetic wellness.

FAQ

What is therapeutic massage?

When Isaac is working on a client, he keeps the client’s goals in mind. If the goal is a gentle, relaxing massage, Isaac is happy to oblige. If the client is looking for a session that is focused on pain relief and increased range of motion, through continual communication with the client, Isaac will focus on deeper work, stretches, and specific client muscle engagement as he works to release those muscles. His specialty is deeper work, but not so deep that it is painful, causing the client to tense up and tighten elsewhere.

Isaac offers sessions that run for either a full 60 minutes or 90 minutes. These are the time that the client is on the table, this does not include arrival, paperwork, and anything else off the table.

What is an energetic balancing session?

Isaac offers a session that mixes his training in different spiritual centering and cleansing practices. He is trained in Reiki as well as different shamanic cleansing and connecting techniques.

Reiki is an energetic practice originating from Mikao Usui in 1922. It is passed down through an attunement that began with Usui. It is non invasive, and involves the practitioner gently laying hands upon the client, or hovering their hands above the client. The client remains fully clothed during this session. It is relaxing and realigning, often experienced as a calming warmth from the practitioners hands. Isaac has studied with a few different teachers, and has developed his own style of this traditional healing method.

An energetic balancing session is different for each client, depending on the client’s goals and needs. It will generally involve the use of a rattle, as well as other sound modalities, and gentle touch as Isaac clears out any energetic heaviness and helps the body find a spiritual homeostasis.

A session is usually 60 minutes with the client on the table, with some time around it to have discussion about the experience.

Can a Massage Session also include Energetic Work?

Absolutely, though it will just be Reiki and will not involve much sound work or other spiritually focused techniques! Just sign up for a 90 minute massage, and inform Isaac when you arrive that you would like a portion of that to be Reiki.

What is Isaac’s herbal education?

Isaac completed a year long course with a local herbalist back in 2011. After that, he has completed multiple classes on different herbs, as well as pulling from his botanical education acquired through both his associate’s degree in resource management and his self taught botanical identification skills beyond that. We have a broad selection of bulk herbs for sale at the shop, as well as different products that Isaac has made or bought to sell.

Tea and Herbal Add Ons

When you arrive, Isaac will offer you a cup of your choice of tea. Depending on what you pick, he will begin the steeping process before your session to be a perfect temperature and a strong brew for you at the end of your session. This is, of course, unless you choose a non herbal tea that can only steep for 3 to 5 minutes.

As of right now, aromatherapy add on is complementary. Just ask before your session begins.

Rescheduling and Cancellation

Prepayment is required to schedule a session in Littleton, processed through the scheduling program. To reschedule your session, head to the notification email you received when you scheduled, and there will be a link to reschedule (within 24 hours of your session, please).
