Francesca, AZ License MT-18255
I have been a massage therapist since 2007. I love the work I do, and find real joy in helping people. I am a Reiki master, craniosacral therapist, myoskeletal alignment certified through Erik Dalton and the Freedom from Pain Institute, a Zen Shiatsu practitioner, use myofascial release, and structural alignment to create a custom session. Over the years I have developed work that goes deep while remaining gentle. I like treating people as a whole, instead of overly focusing on “what’s wrong”. I find an integrated approach yields better results over time. Each session is customized for you, from relaxation to therapeutic and deep tissue. I hope to see you soon! |

I specialize in helping clients relieve stress and deeply relax. My style includes a light to moderate touch. I like to access deep tissues slowly, waiting for muscles to relax rather than forcing my way into the tissue. During my sessions, I incorporate a variety of techniques but primarily use Swedish Massage and Myofascial techniques. I also love incorporating Reflexology into my work.
I have experience with a range of clients, including elite runners. Through my work at a physical therapy clinic, I have also helped clients with physical injuries such as low back pain, sciatica, and nerve impingement. I especially enjoy helping clients working through emotional trauma. |

Health and wellness is my passion, and I exercise that passion through massage therapy. Massage for me is defining muscle groups, separating and spreading muscle fibers to allow growth and healing, and bringing functional movement back into your body. I use various modalities in my session like deep tissue and trigger point work to relieve muscle tension and discomfort. I also incorporate myofascial stretching and NMT to bring relief to both acute and chronic pain. My areas of expertise are in sciatica, shoulder and posterior chain dysfunction. I focus on each guest's level of comfort and relaxation so I am able to achieve the best results possible from our time together. |

Katie, AZ License MT-15516, Certified Stretch Therapist Level 1
My passion is helping clients relieve pain and restore physical and mental calmness through skilled and compassionate touch. I specialize in injury recovery and have experience working with a range of pain conditions, including sports injuries. I especially enjoy helping people progress to meet specific goals and needs, whether that means alleviating pain or achieving an improved sense of well-being.
My bodywork style is slow and deliberate, combining the blended techniques of Deep Tissue, Neuromuscular Therapy (trigger point), Structural, Myofascial work and other massage modalities. During my sessions, I like to create a space for others to reconnect to their authentic selves and physical bodies — all through the healing powers of bodywork and therapeutic touch. |

With over 18 years experience in Massage Therapy, I am dedicated to helping you achieve improvement from the “Aches and Pains” of Soft Tissue, Muscle and Joint discomfort so prevalent in our lives today.
I hold State Licenses in Arizona and Ohio, as well as Nationally Certified in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork. I hold numerous certifications in Neuromuscular Therapy, Orthopedic and Sports Massage, Golf Conditioning, and Corrective Exercise. I am a member of the American Massage Therapy Association and a former member of the Ohio State Sports Massage Team. My practice focuses on a wide variety of massage modalities including: Neuromuscular Therapy, Orthopedic and Sports, Myoskeletal Alignment Technique, and Myofascial Therapy. These are proven systems of soft tissue techniques that help to restore the structure, function, and postural integrity of the body; offering improved recovery from chronic pain or injury. I especially enjoy working with athletes of all ages and those who have recent injuries or chronic soft tissue conditions through an individualized approach. I have studied with the most advanced instructors in massage, sports injury, stretch therapies and exercise specialists in the country, and I take great pride in studying the latest research on these subjects. As I like to share, true healing relationships are not just about the delivery of technique, they are about the compassion and touch we embrace with our clients. |

Caitlin, AZ License MT-22767, Certified Stretch Therapist Level 1
As a therapist, my goals is to help clients relieve pain and move better. I frequently work with clients who have a particular injury or pain complaint. I especially enjoy helping clients relieve headaches and reduce pain and tightness in their neck, back, and shoulders.
During my sessions, I typically incorporate Sports Massage, Trigger Point/NeuroMuscular Therapy, and Deep Tissue techniques. I like to adjust and customize my session for each client to meet their individual needs. FST (Fascial Stretch Therapy) is a favorite technique to help deeply release hips and shoulders. Over the years, I have worked with a wide range of athletes including runners, cyclists, hockey players, and professional football players. I integrate that knowledge and experience into my sessions. |

Heidi, AZ License MT-06824P
I love helping clients relieve pain and improve their mobility. I worked with a chiropractor for many years and have experience with a wide range of injuries and pain conditions, including sciatica, low back pain, shoulder injuries, headaches, and neck pain.
I also have experience helping athletes recover from sports injuries such as tendonitis, IT Band tightness/pain, and strained muscles. In my sessions, I integrate Sedona Swedish Relaxation, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point Therapy, and gentle stretching to mold every massage to each individual client’s needs. I’ve continued my education with specialties such as Neck Release and Cranial Unwinding, which help people who suffer from headaches and migraines. I’ve also studied Low Back Release which reduces lower body aches as well as sciatic pain. These therapies have proven helpful to cyclists, runners, swimmers, as well as those who spend a good portion of their day sitting in front of a computer. My training and experience helped me achieve a greater understanding of the total body connection so I often suggest stretching and postural corrections to help clients live pain free. |
