Hello! I’d love to take a moment to introduce myself and my space.

My name is Vanessa Thomas, and I am a licensed massage therapist, graduating from Ivy Tech in 2015. I am trained in Swedish (relaxation) massage, deep tissue massage, sports massage, prenatal massage, TMJ release/intraoral massage, hot stone massage, and sacred healing energy massage.

I specialize in helping clients find relief from chronic pain and chronic stress, creating sessions tailored to your body’s specific needs.

As someone who is chronically ill and disabled, I work limited part-time hours. Because of this, I operate from my home, located just off Runnion Ave, just west of downtown Fort Wayne, Indiana.

My living room has been fully transformed into a tranquil, spa-like massage space. Please rest assured - my practice is fully professional, and working from home does not compromise the quality of care you will receive. I’ve included photos of my space so you can feel comfortable and confident before your visit.

If needed, I also offer mobile sessions for clients within Fort Wayne or up to 30 minutes outside my location, provided there is a suitable first-floor space for a massage table.

Hours: Monday - Saturday, 1:00 PM - 7:30 PM
Sundays: Available for emergency appointments only

To schedule, please send me a DM or call/text 260-209-4430.

I look forward to working with you and helping you find the relief and comfort you deserve.

Introducing: Sacred Healing Energy Massage at Healing Willow Therapeutic Massage

This is not just a massage, it is a sacred healing ritual.

Sacred Healing Energy Massage is a 75-minute spiritual experience designed to restore the body, align the chakras, and reconnect you with your divine center.

Each session begins with prayer and intention, followed by a cleansing with sage and a blessing of palo santo to clear energy and prepare your spirit for healing.

You will receive a deeply relaxing Swedish massage infused with Reiki and intentional energy work. Healing crystals are placed and used throughout the session to support chakra alignment and energetic balance.

Warm towels and essential oils enhance physical relaxation while sacred energy work restores inner harmony.

The session closes with sound healing using a hand drum, followed by prayer and a final energetic clearing with sage and palo santo, sealing in the healing and grounding you before you return to your day.

This experience is for anyone seeking more than relaxation.
For anyone ready to realign body, mind, and spirit.

Message me to book your Sacred Healing Energy Massage either through DM or call or text 260-209-4430

Could TMJ release/intraoral massage be beneficial for you?

If you suffer from jaw pain, clicking and or popping, clenching, grinding, headaches, ear pressure, facial tension… you are not alone. I live with TMJD myself.

I got into this work because of my own chronic pain. I know what it feels like to be desperate for relief, and to not feel heard and not be able to get the relief I need. But I finally found the relief I was seeking with massage. So, as a massage therapist, I decided to learn how to do it myself so that I could pass the healing I had received onto others.

Intraoral TMJ release is a gentle, targeted technique where I work externally on the jaw, neck, shoulders, head and face, and internally (inside the mouth, with gloves) to release deeper muscles that can’t be accessed from the outside.

This work can help:
• Reduce jaw pain & clicking
• Ease headaches & migraines
• Improve range of motion
• Decrease clenching & grinding
• Calm the nervous system

I give the work I want to receive - intentional, trauma-aware, and respectful of your comfort and boundaries.

Message me here or call/text 260-209-4430 to see if this is right for you.

Pricing Update

When I introduced my monthly frequency discounts, my goal was to make consistent bodywork more accessible and to encourage regular care. I truly believe massage is essential for many people, not a luxury.

I have genuinely enjoyed being able to offer those discounts for as long as I have. Supporting my regular clients in that way has meant a lot to me.

However, as my practice has grown and business expenses have increased, I’ve had to reassess what is sustainable long-term. Unfortunately, continuing the frequency-based discount program is no longer possible.

Effective April 1st 2026, all sessions will return to my standard rates which are as follows

30 minutes - $55
60 minutes - $85
90 minutes - $120
120 minutes - $155
My travel fee for in home massage will be $40 (only charged one time per household)

I do have availability this month still if you feel the need to get in before the discounts are discontinued.

Thank you for your continued trust in my work and for supporting my small business. I’m grateful for each of you and look forward to continuing to provide the care you deserve.

✨ What Is TMJ Release / Intraoral Massage? ✨
If you struggle with jaw pain, clicking or popping, headaches, ear pain, clenching, grinding, or facial tension, TMJ release may help.
TMJ stands for temporomandibular joint — the joint that connects your jaw to your skull. When the muscles around this joint become tight or overworked (often from stress, trauma, clenching, or grinding), it can cause pain not just in the jaw, but also in the neck, shoulders, head, and even sinuses.
Intraoral massage is a specialized technique where I gently and professionally work the muscles inside the mouth (with medical gloves) as well as outside along the jaw, face, and neck. Many of the primary jaw muscles can only be fully accessed from inside the mouth, which is why this technique can be so effective.
Clients often report: • Reduced jaw pain and tension
• Fewer headaches
• Less clenching and grinding
• Improved range of motion
• Relief from ear pressure or facial pain
Your comfort and consent are always prioritized. I explain everything beforehand, and you are in control the entire time.
If you’ve been living with jaw tension or chronic headaches, this may be a missing piece in your healing.

Exciting updates from Healing Willow Therapeutic Massage!
I’m thrilled to share that I’ve been working hard these past few months—both studying new techniques and fully renovating my workspace—to offer you even greater relief from stress and pain.

My massage area is no longer just a table in my living room. It is now a dedicated, tranquil treatment room designed for deep relaxation and healing.

I’m introducing Hot Stone Massage and Facilitated Stretching, and the first five clients to contact me for either service will receive their first session for only $40. I continue to offer Swedish/relaxation, deep tissue, sports, prenatal, and TMJ release/intraoral massage as well.

I am also now including the following free add-ons with any session: essential oils, hot towels, magnesium lotion, sage or palo santo, and sound healing with a hand drum. You may choose as many as you like.

Prices will increase slightly at the beginning of the year, but regular clients will receive larger discounts based on how frequently you’re seen. I have plenty of availability in December if you’d like to book before the new rates begin.

I’m located just west of downtown Fort Wayne, Indiana, and I also offer mobile appointments for a small travel fee—$25 through the end of the year and $35 starting in January. If more than one person at the same location receives a massage, the travel fee is only charged once.

DM me or call or text me at 260-209-4430 or email me at hwtm333@yahoo.com! I look forward to being able to providing you with relief from pain and stress!
