Common Massage Needs in Venice and Nokomis

The median age in Venice is close to 70. Common age-related concerns include stiff knees and hips, shoulders that no longer reach overhead, and tight muscles around arthritic joints. Our orthopedic massage works muscles, fascia, and joints together to improve mobility.

A long ride on the Legacy Trail between Nokomis and the Venice Train Depot works the quads, hips, and lower back, and pickleball on the courts at Nokomis Community Park can tighten forearms, calves, and shoulders. Our Signature DEEP Tissue Massage works the lower back, hips, and glutes.

Choosing the Right Massage for Your Body

Starting prices at our Nokomis clinic are below. Specialty services depend on practitioner availability, so call to confirm what is offered.

Our trademarked DR Hit The Spot™ protocol targets chronic knots and neck, back, and hip pain. Sessions run 50, 80, or 110 minutes, from $110 for members and $140 for non-members.

Signature Relaxation Massage.

This session follows the same pathways with lighter pressure and long, flowing strokes. Lengths and prices match the deep tissue session.

Orthopedic Massage and Lymphatic Drainage.

Orthopedic massage is corrective work for limited mobility, and lymphatic drainage is gentle work for swelling. Sessions run 60, 90, or 120 minutes, from $170 for members and $200 for non-members.

Pure Ashi, Prenatal and Therapeutic Reflexology.

Pure Ashi uses barefoot pressure on large muscle groups, prenatal massage uses supportive bolstering, and reflexology works the reflex points of the feet. Each starts at $150 for members and $180 for non-members.

Cupping.

Cups lift the skin and fascia instead of compressing them. Book cupping on its own or add it to a massage. It may leave temporary marks, which typically are not tender.

Book by the problem, not the name. Call (941) 451-5557, describe what hurts, and ask which treatment fits.

The Method and People Behind Deep Relief

Dr. Lou (Louisa Tomaio, D.Ac., LMT) is a licensed acupuncturist and massage therapist with more than 20 years of experience. She opened Deep Relief in 2014 to fix the inconsistent pressure and results clients often found at chain massage centers. Since then, more than 30,000 clients have chosen Deep Relief for professional massage therapy.

The DR Hit The Spot™ method works seven zones in a set sequence: the base of the skull, the base of the neck, the upper and mid back, the waistline, the hips and glutes, the front of the neck and the chest. Every Deep Relief therapist completes training in the method before treating clients. Acupuncture, dry needling and chiropractic care are also on the Nokomis menu.
