Welcome! I am committed to showing up wholeheartedly for each session, supporting you on your journey through life or motherhood, which — as a mama of two myself — I find to be so beautiful, so joyful, and so humbling.
We are all living in a fast-paced world that can be quite overstimulating. It is my intention to help you pause, take a much-needed break from all responsibilities, nourish your nervous system, harness the healing power of your breath, and fully receive. As a Licensed Massage Therapist for over twelve years, I blend modalities such as deep tissue, circulatory, sports massage, sensory re-patterning, and neuromuscular therapy to create treatments that are both restorative and effective. I hold a special place in my heart for mothers, parents, and women navigating times of uncertainty or transition — though I truly value the uniqueness of every individual I work with.
My work is rooted in compassion and inspired by my own seasons of growth, change, and healing. Before discovering my calling as a massage therapist, I spent over a decade as a behavior therapist supporting children and families navigating developmental and sensory challenges. While working with these beloved children, I first experienced the profound power of touch and intention — how intentional deep pressure could help an overwhelmed, dysregulated child find their calm center. That early chapter also taught me an important lesson about what happens when we pour our hearts into others without filling ourselves back up. My own journey through chronic migraines and neck pain ultimately led me to this work, and to a deep passion for supporting others on their holistic healing path.
As a mother of two, I understand how much we give each day to care for our families — and how essential it is to replenish ourselves so we can live and give from a truly wholesome, heart-centered place. Creating a space where you can slow down, support your nervous system, fully receive, and reconnect with yourself brings me so much joy. I am deeply grateful to love what I do. My sincerest intention is to help you feel more grounded in your body, free in your mind, and more connected to yourself — so that you can move through life's ebbs and flows from a nourished, heart-centered state of being.
PRENATAL MASSAGE
I am certified in prenatal care and bodywork during this transformative time in your life. I go above and beyond the light and fluffy surface massage and use intentional, specialized techniques to create deeper therapeutic releases as the body is miraculously shifting and adjusting from your baby. I have endless pillow and body support options to ensure you feel as comfortable as possible and can fully receive the benefits.
my story
My journey to motherhood wasn’t a straight path. I’ve found so many books and resources that helped me along my journey that I love sharing with others, too.
root to radiate
“I am deeply rooted in the earth, I flow with the waves of life with grace, I radiate from the essence of my being: compassion, joy and love.”
It has become my mantra: Root to Radiate which came to me during a yoga class sun salutation. It’s meaningful layers have become a grounding force that help me nourish my roots: mind, body, heart and soul so I can live in a more grounded, joyful and peaceful state of being towards myself and others.
"Rachel has been an amazing gift to my pregnancy journey. Seeing her throughout my pregnancy made all the difference! Her energy is peaceful and loving, and you feel that with each massage. She has tons of props to help you get comfortable on the table with your growing belly. She always communicates with you to make sure the pressure is exactly what you’re looking for. She is amazing!”
