About
Hello, I’m Nadia.
I’m a registered nurse who also does massage, and my practice is for women only. I built it around one idea: you should be able to fully relax.
Why a nurse who does massage
I graduated in 2014 with an Associate of Science degree in Therapeutic Massage from Heritage Institute of Jacksonville. Then I became a registered nurse (RN, BSN) and worked as a nurse in different settings, from bedside to home care to pediatrics. I even took a travel nursing job in Hawaii for four months, the best experience I ever had. Now, with the news that I will soon be a grandma, I’ve decided to make my life a little less stressful, so I’ve come back to massage.
With this background, I pay more attention to your health history and any medications you are taking. If you’ve had a recent surgery, I’ll know whether massage, and what type of massage, is right for you. If something needs a doctor, I’ll say so.
To be clear, this is a massage practice. My nursing background is a credential and a reason to trust how I listen. I don’t provide nursing care, diagnose, or treat medical conditions here.
“I love this job. I like to make people feel comfortable and give them the best experience of relaxation they can have.”
Why I do this work
I love this work because it’s calm for me, too. Spending an hour helping someone relax is quietly rewarding, and I like helping people feel better.
In nursing, the results often take time and I don’t always get to see them. In the massage room I do: someone arrives tense and leaves lighter, within the hour.
Italian and English
I speak Italian and English, so if Italian feels easier, I’m happy to talk with you in Italian. Parlo italiano: leggi questa pagina in italiano.
Why women only
A lot of women tell me they’ve never fully relaxed on a massage table, because part of them stayed guarded. A space made for women takes that away. You can arrive as you are, and nobody has to explain why it matters.
How I work
- You are draped at all times, and only the area being worked on is uncovered.
- You set the pressure, and you can ask me to skip an area, pause, or stop, for any reason.
- I ask before working on sensitive areas.
- We talk through a short health form before we start, so I know what to work around.
License and insurance
I’m a Licensed Massage Therapist in the State of Florida, license number MA110275. I’m also a registered nurse (RN, BSN). I’m insured.
