Testimonials
“Rachel is thorough, thoughtful, and very warm. She takes time to listen to you, and to your body to best assist with releasing tension, and bringing about a sense of relaxation and restoration! Each session with her is customized to your bodies specific need (at that time). She adjusts her pressure according to what your preference is. And even gives recommendations on stretches that can help/support you on your own time. Rachel is one of the better masseuse I’ve worked with over the years, and I’d highly recommend her to be your Massage Therapist.”

“Rachel is a master of her craft! I saw her for deep tissue & myofascial release to aid in the recovery of old injuries and to relieve stiffness in my neck, shoulders, and legs from strength training and scar tissue build up. I like my massages with firm pressure, and Rachel does a great job communicating pressure preferences with me & meeting those preferences. She does a lot of intervention work for me around my scar tissues to effectively break up adhesions and stored tension. I always leave her sessions feeling deeply relaxed in my body, mind, and nervous system. She has a very welcoming & comfortable energy to be around, and it's clear that she is very experienced in her craft and knows her way around the body's systems from the muscle & soft tissues, to the skeletal system, and even the subtle body (mental/emotional/spiritual).”

attributes of massage therapy.
Compassion.
Creating a safe environment for you is the first step in your care to support your physical and emotional being when you come in. Approaching each client with compassion helps build trust, ease tensions and promote a deeper sense of healing and relaxation during your session.
Therapeutic.
With the use of various deep tissue techniques, (including Myofascial Release, Trigger Point Therapy, soft tissue manipulation, joint mobilization, stretching, etc.), we have the tools necessary to address our client’s goals, resulting in pain and tension relief, improved mobility, and a reduction in stress.
Intuition.
Intuition is necessary to address the client’s emotional and physical sense. We meet you and your body where you’re at. Both verbal and somatic communication is crucial during a bodywork session.
Somatics.
Somatics is a therapeutic approach designed to help release trauma that is stored in the body. By focusing on physical sensations and self-awareness, incorporating somatics helps regulate the nervous system, reduce stress and promote healing for both the mind & body.
