Reconnect.

Poise Massage is a spiritual wellness brand centered around connection. We introduce each of our clients to the power of touch-because touch is the very first form of healing, and one of the most powerful.
Poise is more than a massage brand; it is a gateway to the many possibilities of holistic healing. We embrace wellness practices such as reiki, reflexology, herbal medicine, and other solutions that support the whole person.
At Poise, we believe true wellness requires caring for the mind, body, and spirit. Our mission is to provide individualized experiences through massage and holistic practices-understanding that no two people are the same, and we all heal differently.
Poise is rooted in spiritual connection and holistic wellness -not just physical relief. More than a brand, Poise is a sanctuary for restoration, alignment, and intentional healing. We combine the power of touch with holistic practices to create personalized experiences that nurture the mind, body, and spirit.

Gina Townzel
LICENSED MASSAGE THERAPIST
Rooted in New Orleans and raised Uptown, Gina Townzel is a licensed massage therapist with over 12 years of experience in the healing arts. After studying at Blue Cliff College and becoming licensed in 2014, she built her practice around pain management and deep tissue therapy, helping clients reconnect with their bodies through intentional touch.
As her journey continues to evolve, Gina is expanding her work into women's wellness, combining therapeutic massage, reflexology, prenatal massage, and reiki to create restorative experiences that nurture the mind, body, and spirit. Her mission is to provide care that is deeply personal and holistically aligned, because every woman deserves a healing experience designed for her unique path.
Healing Philosophy
Gina honors touch as the first language of healing, understanding that intentional touch has the power to restore balance, release stored tension, awaken awareness, and create space for the body to return to its natural state.
She believes true healing is never one-dimensional. The body cannot be restored without acknowledging the mind, and the mind cannot find peace without nurturing the spirit. This is why she integrates massage therapy with holistic wellness practices that support healing on every level.
Connection to New Orleans
Gina has always felt a deep connection to her city. From a young age, she was drawn to New Orleans' rich culture, history, and architecture- elements that nurtured her curiosity and openness to healing.
New Orleans culture is deeply rooted in spirituality, including traditions such as voodoo—an ancestral form of healing that has influenced generations of practitioners. This spiritual energy, woven into the fabric of the city, has shaped Gina's approach to wellness and continues to guide her work as a healer.
She also honors the legacy of legendary New Orleans healers like Marie Laveau, whose influence inspires her to carry forward traditions of holistic care and spiritual connection. For Gina, the energy of New Orleans is not just a backdrop-it is an integral part of the healing experience she offers.

Kind words from beautiful souls.
Gina, your recovery plan is one of the best I’ve ever had. I thank you so much for being a part of my recovery process. Not only does she care for you as a client, but as a person. I thank you for just being with me during this season. One of the best I’ve ever had.
Tulane Quarterback (2020)
I just got off the table and I am totally relieved — I’m uplifted. Whatever she did, I’m healed. For those of you who don’t understand, come see for yourself. I came in so heavy and I’m leaving out so light.
