Angela Bavuso

Massage Therapist

Angela has been a Massachusetts Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) since 2012. She studied at Cortiva Institute of Massage Therapy and is trained in a variety of modalities including Swedish, deep tissue, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, IASTM, kinesiology taping, and sports massage. Additionally, she holds certificates in both prenatal and Thai Massage. Her practices in yoga and Reiki bring a greater understanding to the physical and energetic properties of bodywork therapy. Her style of massage consists of firm, comfortable pressure using integrative techniques. Different approaches yield different results; so with a strong foundational knowledge of muscular and energetic therapies she can allow intuition to guide her in offering clients the treatment that best serves them.
