Terrah Banakas has opened her own massage therapy business in Renaissance | Farragut, with an open house planned for April 13.

“I do a lot of therapeutic work, for people who have chronic conditions or something they’ve been trying to get worked out,” Banakas said.

Banakas offers deep tissue, relaxation, sports and chair massages and aromatherapy.

Banakas will host an open house from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., Friday, April 13, and invites the public to “come in and check it out.” Massage by Terrah Banakas is located in suite 204 in Renaissance, 12740 Kingston Pike, next to Seasons Café.

Banakas is offering discounts during April.

While Banakas does offer some relaxation massage, she specializes in therapeutic work, which focuses on problem areas or even chronic conditions such as fibromyalgia.

“We really focus in on that muscle group and all the muscles that are being pulled out of alignment,” Banakas said.

“People don’t necessarily have to come in to get a full-body massage, but they might come in just for that one area to work on, and they might make it a shorter appointment and more frequent during the month.
