Our goal is to make you feel seen, safe, heard, and a little more comfortable in your body.
(Even if feeling comfortable in your body is a relatively new thing.)
Remedial Massage for Chest Binding
Binding can be an important part of gender expression and bodily autonomy—so we love it for that. But, because it’s compressive by nature, it can cause postural discomfort, restrict your breathing, and limit movement in the muscles and joints along your ribcage. And all of that can add up to pain and discomfort, especially with long-term use.
We understand the important place binders can hold in your gender affirmation journey, so we want to help you stay as comfortable as possible while using them—whether that’s long-term or while awaiting top surgery. Through massage, we can help ease discomfort and pain, increase mobility, and even improve the quality of your breathing.
Remedial Post-Surgical & Scar Massage
You had gender-affirming surgery! Yay! But also…ouch! Whether it’s soreness and stiffness from having to limit your movement during recovery, scar sensitivity, or any other type of surgery-related ache, it’s pretty common to have a little bit of lingering pain.
Thankfully, massage therapy and scar massage can help reduce that pain by increasing your range of motion, breaking up scar tissue, and decreasing scar sensitivity. It can also help improve sensation to and around your surgical scars—super helpful if you experience any numbness!
Gender-Inclusive Massage Therapy
Feeling sore and achy overall?
Or need rehab for something that isn’t gender-related? We can support you with that, too!
Our clinic is safe and gender-inclusive, so no matter the reason for your visit, you’re welcome and you can trust that you’ll be in good hands!
What To Expect During Your Appointment
Booking your first appointment can be intimidating. Here’s what we want you to know:
Our space is clean & comfy
Our space hits that perfect balance of clean and comforting. We keep it hypoallergenic and sanitized so nothing interferes with your chill, and you feel at peace from the moment you walk through the door.
We set the table for you
Before your arrival, your RMT will prep the room by sanitizing every touchpoint, dressing the table with crisp sheets and a fresh blanket, and heating or cooling the room to the perfect temperature. (Yes, we have AC!)
This is a judgment-free zonE
This is your appointment! Your comfort is #1. Please do not apologize for having hairy body parts, showing up sweaty, crying during your session, wearing sweats to your appointment, or wanting to stay fully covered.
No need to strip down!
What You Wear—Or Don’t!—Is Your Choice
For top surgeries, you can choose to keep your shirt on or take it off, lie over or under the sheet, and keep on any garments or undergarments that increase your comfort.
For lower body surgeries or treatments, most clients choose to wear only underwear, but the choice is still yours. And of course, we stay within our scope of practice, treating only the areas around the genital region. (The inner thighs, glutes, low back, and the upper and lower abdomen.)
Hear from Happy Patients
I would Give Capra More Stars if I could
“The clinic is welcoming, inclusive, and has an overall good vibe. I’ve been seeing Richelle since the beginning and I always walk out feeling like new. She knows where I’m tight and sore better than I know myself. I saw Michelle who helped me quickly recover from a minor knee injury. I was also able to grab an appointment with Dave for my first relaxing massage, which is just what I needed going into spring break. Everyone on the team is so easy to talk to and professional with clear communication so nothing is awkward. I look forward to trying out the other RMTs, but so far they’re all amazing. Parking is clearly marked and they do direct billing for BlueCross. I don’t follow a lot of businesses on Instagram, but I highly recommend following Capria to find last-minute appointments and wholesome content that makes you feel part of the collective. 10/10 would recommend.”

Recommend Capria 10/10!
“My experience at Capria has been fantastic! Loi was my RMT and she does a phenomenal job of focusing on my concerns and is really down to earth! Front desk staff was also really helpful, knowledgable and provided stunning refreshments to start the day off right!”

My experience at Capria Care Collective is always exceptional!
“From the moment I am greeted at the door & to the moment I leave! I started going to Capria in February of this year & I’ve loved it! I receive RMT services with Loi & she’s amazing!! She has since been able to help relieve the muscle fatigue & soreness I get from working as an RN. Ever since my first session, I always make sure to book before & after my set! I highly recommend this clinic to anyone that’s looking for an RMT!”
