meet your therapist

Amy O'Connell (she/her)
NJ License #18KT01389700

Hi! I'm Amy, a licensed massage therapist in Somers Point, New Jersey. As a life-long migraine sufferer, I love playing a part in helping others to manage their headache pain. It is simply my absolute favorite work to do.  

For just about as long as I can remember I have suffered from chronic migraines. I have vivid childhood memories of being at friends' pool parties, running on a cheese pizza/chlorine water combo, and suddenly seeing that dreaded, cloudy aura creeping in from the corners of my vision. A horseman of my own Pain Apocalypse. 

 

I know exactly how debilitating headaches and migraines can be, which is why I believe that it is so important that we have as many tools in our headache-fighting arsenal as possible. I truly do trust in the power of therapeutic massage in helping people like you and I to manage the symptoms of our chronic pain. In my 2.5+ decades of headaches, massage is one of the most effective remedies I have personally experienced (besides a large fountain coke from mickey D's).

I look forward to sharing this remedy with you!

In addition to headache work, I also work a lot with people in recovery from addiction. When I'm not at Hello Wellness, I'm at a local treatment center offering massage therapy to the patients there as an alternate form of pain management. Recovery is a big part of my own story as well and it very much influences my career and my approach as a massage therapist.

I am LGBTQIA+ inclusive and affirming and welcome bodies of all types into my space.

Welcome in, I can't wait to meet you!

my approach (no pain, all gain)

My treatments focus on creating a soft, safe space for my clients to lower their guards and allow healing through deep relaxation. When the nervous system feels supported, it can let go and begin to restore itself. Because of this, my personal technique is based largely in gentle modalities like Swedish massage and myofascial release. I love curating the coziest experience I can for my clients (they often fall asleep!) and ultimately want each treatment to feel like a warm cup of tea for your noggin. No sharp elbows here!
