Massage with Acharya Sunyata Shyam

Dr. Sunyata Shyam began her rigorous bodywork training at an immersive massage school. After earning her degree in massage therapy, she apprenticed at an Ayurvedic and naturopathic practice, where she integrated Western massage techniques with her mentor’s Eastern knowledge. Through this work, she developed proficiency in both the physical and sacred anatomy of the body.

For over 25 years, Dr. Shyam has practiced massage therapy with clients of all ages, shapes, and sizes. Her warm, personable nature helps each client feel comfortable and confident they are in skilled, caring hands. Working with her is a timeless experience that has truly changed people’s lives

    Vedic Massage sessions with Sunyata draw from the classical healing traditions of India and her training as a Vedic Acharya. This work combines warm herbal oils, rhythmic flowing strokes, range of motion, gentle stretching , and focused marma point therapy to release muscular tension, support circulation, and restore the natural flow of energy throughout the body.

    Marma points are vital anatomical and energetic junctions described in Ayurvedic medicine. Gentle, intentional contact at these points helps calm the nervous system, open subtle pathways, and encourage the body’s innate healing response.

    Each session is unique, attentive, and individualized. Sunyata works with the whole person—structure, breath, and energy—so clients leave feeling deeply relaxed, more open in their body, and quietly revitalized.

    Massage during the second and third trimesters can be deeply beneficial for both mother and baby. I offer gentle, full-body prenatal massage using warm herbal oils to ease muscular tension, support circulation, and promote relaxation during this time of physical and emotional change.

    Sessions are carefully adapted to each stage of pregnancy. With the support of specialized prenatal cushions, many clients can comfortably receive massage face-down even as the belly grows. When needed, I also work in a safe side-lying position to ensure comfort and ease.

    Prenatal massage may help reduce back, hip, and leg discomfort, ease swelling, calm the nervous system, and support restful sleep, while creating quiet space to connect with the changing body and the growing baby.

    Available after the first trimester.
    Session lengths: 60 or 90 minutes.
    Prenatal care can also continue postpartum to support recovery and integration
