About Me

Hi, my name is Catie Mengel and May River Massage is my private practice. I am very passionate about my career and am constanlty learning new techniques in order to provide the best massage for my clients.
​
I was born and raised in Bluffton and have always felt a strong connection to the beauty of the low country but more specifically the magic of the May River. It has always been a place of peace and refuge for me and I hope to impart that same experience when clients visit me.
​
I started my massage therapy journey in 2008 when I attended South Carolina Massage and Esthetics Institute (currently known as International Spa Institute). My passion to help others drove me to learn a wide variety of modalities including sports massage, deep tissue massage, swedish, aromatherapy hot stone, body treatments and more.
​
As my knowledge deepened I sought out other therapies to greater assist my clients, such as Medical Massage, neuromuscular therapy, Ahshiatsu Barefoot Massage,scar tissue release work, and Somatic Experiencing that address the body as a whole rather than pieces.
​
With all of these different techniques under my belt I am confident I can design a treatment tailored to your needs, whether you suffer from chronic pain, stress or anxiety, or would just like to melt into the table and relax.
