Deep Pressure - Deeper Purpose
I’m Alexis Woody—licensed massage therapist, candle-slinger, and one-woman powerhouse behind The Knotty Body. I specialize in customized massage therapy that runs the gamut from deep tissue and trigger point work to full-body relaxation. Because healing looks different for everyone—and sometimes, let’s be honest, it hurts (in a good way).
This isn’t a spa—it’s personal. The Knotty Body is a private, appointment-only studio based in my home, where comfort, quality, and zero judgment are part of the experience. Come as you are. Leave feeling slightly more human.
And when you book with me, you're also part of something bigger. Through my Massage Meets Mission program, I offer optional animal-assisted therapy as a donation-based add-on, with every dollar going to veteran organizations, like K9s For Warriors, a nonprofit that pairs trained service dogs with veterans facing PTSD and other invisible wounds. And now, through our Candles For K9s initiative, you can support the same mission while making your home smell amazing—because a portion of every candle sold goes directly to this life-changing cause.
So whether you’re here to unknot your neck, reset your nervous system, or support a damn good cause—you’re exactly where you need to be.
Proof I'm Out Here Fixing Lives
Alexis W does the best deep tissue massage! I have been seeing her for months. She continues to amaze me with her talents. She’s also a built in comedian and you’re guaranteed to not only have a great massage therapy session, but also a great therapy session in general. Will be seeing her on the regular!!

“I had an absolutely phenomenal massage with Alexis! I have never had a therapist stretch and rotate my shoulders, hips and glutes the way she did. She added cupping to my massage to help with the super tight spots in my shoulders and back. She is extremely knowledgeable and helped me determine which muscle group was causing my issues. This is by far the best massage I have ever received and I cannot wait to be back on her table!"

Alexis is a fantastic masseuse; I have never had a better. I was highly impressed by her knowledge of the body and massage therapy. I have been going to physical therapy for two months now and she was able to improve my anatomical issues in one visit. I highly recommend despite selfishly not wanting her to get booked up.

Alexis is amazing! My husband and I have been getting massages by her for months now. She creates a safe space and allows you to communicate your wants and needs. She is truly an amazing massage therapist that has incredible talent. She was able to find knots I didn’t even know I had and after she worked on them I felt so much better! Highly recommend her! Plus she’s hilarious:)
