Lisa began her career by graduating from the Connecticut Center for Massage Therapy in 2007. She quickly found her love and niche for deep tissue and pain management modalities and realized the spa setting was not for her. And after the birth of her first child, she became enveloped in all things perinatal and thus began her extensive prenatal and postpartum trainings and birth doula career. Lisa helped support almost 200 families before retiring from doula work in 2023 and continuing to focus on her massage practice. When she’s not at work, you can find Lisa tinkering or fixing something on her 1880 Victorian house, planning some adventurous trip for her family of 5, or trying to not kill her house plants. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e74b04ba11122f24490454/1626227423814-7LWMU5OTK6UZEI3DS6XK/shutterstock_1831755844.jpg About - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.compasswc.com/home daily 1.0 2026-01-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e74b04ba11122f24490454/30eaabd2-1896-4295-9037-97b80253159a/IMG_7921.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e74b04ba11122f24490454/537ec2bc-946c-4365-879e-7aa6062104d7/IMG_7920.PNG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e74b04ba11122f24490454/63c4a801-4fac-43d7-b774-946e0e7b0081/IMG_2659.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e74b04ba11122f24490454/44c25661-6111-4095-9f6b-90273b9a39e7/IMG_6965.jpeg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e74b04ba11122f24490454/9b7f047d-0512-48c7-960d-f1a3c807ee47/3514959716103043899.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e74b04ba11122f24490454/959d4f5e-4008-4a03-b16a-d93591d4327f/IMG_7068.jpg Home https://www.compasswc.com/contact daily 0.75 2023-06-25 https://www.compasswc.com/lisa-de-sousa daily 0.75 2021-07-14 https://www.compasswc.com/massage daily 0.75 2025-06-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Massage https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Massage https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Massage https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Massage https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e74b04ba11122f24490454/260585e4-9525-4e23-8612-6d6d6213f5c2/21ABF78A-AF4B-4A48-A29C-D2547435A704.jpeg Massage https://www.compasswc.com/billofrights daily 0.75 2025-11-04 https://www.compasswc.com/intake daily 0.75 2023-07-11 https://www.compasswc.com/gift-certificate daily 0.75 2026-01-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e74b04ba11122f24490454/16ded432-3729-4cd8-a7ea-c6b8098367f5/IMG_8863.jpeg Gift Certificate - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.compasswc.com/abdominaltherapyintake daily 0.75 2023-07-11 https://www.compasswc.com/abdominal-therapy daily 0.75 2024-03-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e74b04ba11122f24490454/6157c5fc-c270-44d1-a9f7-1ec83e6cc2b8/shutterstock_1332846944.jpg Abdominal Therapy - Abdominal Therapy is beneficial for: -fertility struggles -menstrual cycle complaints -menopause transition -surgery healing/ scar tissue -hysterectomy -fibroids/cysts -PCOS -frequent bladder/kidney infections -incontinence -pelvic organ prolapse -intimacy issues/ low libido -digestive disorders -pelvic pain -trauma/emotional healing -and so much more https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e74b04ba11122f24490454/4b7b8a72-bb8d-4b87-af6e-df76879e79e7/belly.jpg Abdominal Therapy - Your first visit. Once you schedule your INITIAL SESSION, your confirmation email will provide a link to fill out a Your Health Story Intake Form. This is lengthy, so please provide yourself with a quiet 10-20 minutes to thoughtfully fill this out. Your two hour initial visit will begin with an opportunity to express your story and history and hopes for this treatment. Lisa will dig deep into your health intake and ask further questions. Following the discussion will be the hands on portion of the session. The massage will focus on assessment and improvement of nerve, artery, vein, energy, and lymph flow through the abdomen. Work on other areas of the body are commonly wrapped into the bodywork as well. Lastly, you will learn some self-care techniques to implement at home to enhance your healing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e74b04ba11122f24490454/3cc4dfaa-0e79-4fd7-8b31-706c04e02cc1/IMG_3969+2.jpeg Abdominal Therapy - Meet Lisa.
