Gentle Wave Massage Therapy

You deserve rest and ease.

Gentle Wave Massage Therapy is owned and operated by Tonya J Ross. She has been practicing massage in Bellingham since 2017.

Life as a human being is an inherently stressful experience. The tension and fatigue of daily tasks and your movement through the world can build up and settle into the soft tissues of your body causing pain, discomfort, decreases in range of motion, headaches, and hosts of other issues both large and small.

Tonya’s approach to bodywork involves balancing the physical needs of the body with the subconscious needs of the mind. Stress can cause pain; pain can be stressful. It is vitally important to address both mind and body for effective, lasting change. Her style of massage work encourages deep relaxation to calm the sympathetic nervous system, ease held tension patterns, and address specific areas of pain and dysfunction in a way that is more easily integrated by the body.

If you find yourself in need of relief from tension, pain, stress, and busyness please book an appointment today. You deserve comfort, care, and rest. All bodies welcome.

Tonya is a trauma aware practitioner.

Tonya is knowledgeable and was very in tune with what I needed. In addition to the actual session, she gave me helpful suggestions for what would help me in between appointments. Highly recommend.

The best massage! I have been going to Tonya for years, because I’ve never felt better after a massage (each and every time!) I really appreciate how she checks in with me first to understand any specific problems or areas I’d like to focus on. At the end she offers helpful tips or suggestions for any problem areas to help support my health and well-being between massages. Those two things make it feel personalized to exactly what I need. I look forward to the next massage knowing no matter how I’m feeling (physically or mentally), I’ll get what I need. I also really appreciate how her services are a flat fee with no tips. It may not seem like much, but it just adds another layer to relieving stress. I highly recommend her services!
