Frequently Asked Questions
-
We are fully mobile and provide all services in the comfort of our client’s home, office or gym. We service Cincinnati, NKY, Mason, Blue Ash and Surrounding areas.
-
Calming Souls Massage is for former competitive athletes and active adults who are still training but dealing with the long-term effects of old injuries. Most of our clients have an athletic background, experienced injury during their competitive years, and never fully regained trust in their bodies afterward.
This work is especially helpful for people who feel like they’re constantly managing pain, compensating during movement, or reinjuring the same areas despite staying active.
-
This is not relaxation or spa massage.
Our sports massage approach is assessment-driven and focused on identifying compensation patterns created by past injuries, training habits, and movement mechanics.
We use targeted techniques to support recovery, mobility, and long-term movement health—rather than providing temporary relief or passive relaxation.
-
For the safety of our therapists, we unfortunately will not be able to carry our equipment up flights of stairs. A few steps to the entrance of the home (or place of service) we can accommodate, however, please communicate when booking and ensure adequate space is available on the main floor.
-
Physical therapy is excellent for acute rehab and return-to-function. However, many athletes are cleared to return to activity before underlying compensation patterns and tissue restrictions are fully addressed.
Sports massage helps bridge that gap by supporting tissue health, improving movement quality, and addressing the patterns that often remain after rehab ends—especially for people who continue to train regularly.
-
Frequency depends on your injury history, training load, and goals. Most clients benefit from bi-weekly to monthly sessions, especially when addressing long-standing patterns or supporting consistent training.
We help guide this based on how your body responds—not a one-size-fits-all schedule.
Reviews
from our clients:
“Kisiah (the face behind Calming Souls Massage) is a very professional and skilled massage therapist. During a session, time is used fully! And questions are asked about experiences after previous sessions and areas you as a client have concerns about and would like to be targeted more. With the use of different types of techniques the result including the release of tension is amazing!! If you are looking for a true sports massage this is the place!”

Her deep tissue massage worked wonders for my soreness and significantly improved my mobility through her expert assisted stretching and cupping techniques. Kisiah's professionalism and attention to detail truly set her apart, making the session feel tailored to my needs. I can't recommend her highly enough if you're looking for top-notch, in-house massage therapy!”
