Hi there! I’m Solange, the licensed massage therapist and owner of Solange Connolly, LMT. I have been a licensed massage therapist since 2012, after completing my initial training at Bancroft School of Massage Therapy in Worcester, MA.

I received my first massage as a teenager and was amazed at the therapist’s ability to discern my habits and lifestyle simply from feeling my muscles! During college I continued to seek out massage therapy and I became interested in yoga and functional movement. It was only after college that I followed my curiosity and interest and considered massage therapy as a career. 

I first started practicing massage therapy at a chiropractic office in Boston, where I learned a lot in a short time working alongside the chiropractor. Next, I found a position at the Boston Bodyworker and remained there for ten years. During that decade of practice I encountered a multitude of different client concerns, injuries, goals, and ailments.

Through my career, I have completed numerous continuing education workshops, becoming certified in Orthopedic Massage through the Academy of Clinical Massage, prenatal massage with Elaine Stillerman of Mother Massage and more.  In addition to these certifications I have taken courses in Myoskeletal Alignment Techniques, Thai Table Massage, Kinesiology Taping and Myoskeletal Mobilization techniques. I also worked with countless numbers of marathon runners, triathletes, college and other competitive athletes, gaining so much knowledge from each and every massage treatment. I bring all of this experience and training to all of my massage sessions and am still continually seeking out new workshops and massage experiences to add to my toolkit. 

I feel that the entire experience of the massage impacts the results; from the first interaction online and walking in the door, to getting off the table and leaving after your treatment. I strive to create a welcoming, friendly and comfortable environment to help you relax more easily and get the most out of your appointments. I also love educating my clients and empowering them to understand and get to know their bodies and what they are capable of. My goal as a massage therapist is to help you achieve your self care goals; finding calm amid the stress of life and feeling good in a body that moves comfortably and feels balanced. 

In my free time I enjoy reading all kinds of books, cooking and eating, and spending time with my two young kids, husband and elderly dog. I love getting outside and working in my garden, hiking, running and playing on the beach!
