Your Massage Therapist in Huntersville, NC


Ginny Hicks

Founder and NC LMBT #16615


Hi, I’m Ginny — and I’m so glad you’re here.


A Place to Exhale


If life has you carrying stress in your shoulders and neck, tensing your lower back, or feeling like you can’t quite turn your brain off, this is your place to find relief. My work is relaxation-focused — the kind of massage that helps your nervous system settle, your muscles release, and your whole body remember what calm feels like.


Massage Training


I became a massage therapist in 2002 after training at the Wisconsin Institute of Natural Wellness, and I spent years in a resort spa working with clients from all over the world. That experience shaped how I practice today — offering excellent bodywork and exceptional customer service — because every detail matters.


Creating a More Personal Practice


Craving stronger connections with my clients and the freedom to develop individual therapeutic plans, I opened my own practice in 2005.


A Deeper Understanding of the Body


In 2016, I earned my associate’s degree as a Physical Therapy Assistant, which enhanced my understanding of how the body moves and why certain areas tend to hold tension. I incorporate this knowledge into every session — not to make things clinical, but to make your massage more effective, comfortable, and 100% tailored to what your body needs.


A Calming Retreat in Huntersville

Knead It or Knot Massage was founded in 2018, when I relocated to Huntersville seeking milder winters and a lively, active community. Nestled among Lake Norman’s local farmers’ markets, live music, and street fairs, Knead It or Knot Massage offers a calming retreat that balances the town's energetic scene with rest and relaxation.


Thai Massage Certification

I completed Thai Massage Certification in 2025, which offers a great option if you love stretching, want to feel more open in your hips and back, or prefer a session that’s both rejuvenating and energizing. Thai massage blends acupressure, assisted stretching, and rhythmic bodywork, leaving you feeling looser, lighter, and refreshed.


Sound Healing


If you enjoy stillness and deep relaxation, you’ll love my monthly group sound healing experiences. And, of course, I can also add sound healing to your massage session — an easy way to help your mind unwind while your body relaxes into the table.




No Upsells. No Add-On Fees. Just Care.


One thing you’ll notice right away: I don’t believe in nickel-and-diming your self-care. You won’t be upsold or pressured into “enhancements.” Instead, I offer complimentary options — always — so your session can match what your body needs that day. Choose from these complimentary enhancements:

  • Cupping Therapy
  • Hot Stone Therapy
  • CoreStone Therapy
  • Tok Sen Therapy
  • Sound Healing
  • Aromatherapy

And every table massage takes place on an advanced Crystal Rainbow Chakra Far-Infrared PEMF Mat, adding another layer of warmth and support to help you relax more deeply.
