About Us
Dana Licensed Massage Therapist
My name is Dana Yanas, and I am a Licensed Massage Therapist. Massage therapy, to me, is an art, a gift, a way to heal, and a devoted service to help anyone who desires better health and tranquility in their life. I began my journey in 2016 when I moved to Colorado for a life in the mountains. After a season packed full of hiking and snowboarding, I realized that massage therapy was a necessity of life and my calling to make a difference in people’s lives. Soon after receiving my license in massage therapy, I had the opportunity to do body work on athletes, and it became clear that deep tissue and therapeutic approaches were my specialties. In 2020, I moved back to Philadelphia to be closer to my family and try my hand at living the city lifestyle. In the heart of our hustle and bustling city, I worked alongside physical therapists who share similar passions and interests to benefit our patients. Through this experience, I learned additional helpful techniques and other modalities to help those in need. I look forward to meeting with you and sharing your journey to a happy and healthy life

Our Services
Medical Massage Therapy
​Medical massage therapy is a targeted approach prescribed by healthcare professionals to address specific medical conditions, reduce pain, and improve mobility. Trained therapists use specialized techniques to complement traditional treatments.
Sports Massage
​This type of massage focuses on joint mobilization and joint manipulation. We use techniques such as vibration, shaking, compression, broadening strokes, direct pressure, cross-fiber friction, range of motion, and stretching to achieve this.
Cupping
​Cupping has been shown to increase blood flow to the areas where it is applied. It is often used in athlete recovery to help heal sore, tired muscles. It is also beneficial when applied to the muscles before athletic events.
Maternity and Postpartum Massage
The pregnancy and postpartum period of a woman’s life can be very hard on the body. Maternity massage and postpartum massage is an excellent way to feel better. Both treatments utilize gentle range-of-motion and stretching to relieve pressure through the neck, shoulders, rib cage, lower back, and hips, promoting greater strength, flexibility, and balance.
Deep Tissue
Deep tissue is a massage technique that involves applying firm pressure and slow strokes to reach deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue. This method aims to release chronic muscle tension, break down adhesions, and promote overall healing.
Therapeutic Massage
This type of massage caters to your body’s specific needs to get the best results while promoting relaxation, reducing inflammation, and increasing overall health.
