We are located in the historic village of Cranbury in the De Hart Building circa 1845, across the street from the Post Office.

Nancy Sheehan founded Cranbury Therapeutic Massage in 1995 with the belief that regular massage therapy can be a powerfully relaxing and centering experience that contributes to lasting improvements in health, balance and awareness. Her clinical training and experience qualify her as an expert in dealing with a wide variety of muscular conditions.

Some of the responses we hear from clients:

“The best massage I ever had”
“Absolutely amazing”
“My pain is totally gone”
“The highlight of my week”
“Can I stay here?”

Rachel Weiss, LMT

Rachel finds giving massage almost as relaxing as receiving it. She values the body and mind’s need to balance activity with rest, allowing one to return to homeostasis and wellness.

A licensed massage therapist, Rachel works with a variety of clients and her massage style is one of subtle intensity. Her hands see beyond skin; molding, reconnecting, and reminding. Her work inspires a sense of renewal to restore optimum function throughout the body. She allows the body to de-stress, helps alleviate discomfort from fibromyalgia and other chronic pains, tendonitis and tendonosis. She integrates neuromuscular massage, deep tissue, Swedish massage, pregnancy massage and geriatric massage.

Prior to graduating from Gentle Healing School of Massage, Rachel earned a B.A. in Accounting from West Chester University and a Masters of Business Administration from Penn State University. She changed her career to massage therapy simply because, after incorporating massage as part of her wellness regiment, she realized the healing power of touch.
