“I started to see Victoria for some specific somatic issues related to my emotional well-being. As a mental health counselor and yoga teacher, being integrated and centered is essential to my work. After my massages with Victoria, I feel much more embodied, lighter, and open throughout my body, and I am more present with my mind, body, and spirit. Victoria is kind and compassionate. She helps to heal my body through her massage techniques and presence.”

“Victoria takes note during each massage to address my current concerns and situation. She takes great care in remembering a surgery I had. She is mindful and adjusts the pressure applied with intuitive expertise. Working at a computer all day, my neck and shoulders tighten up. After Victoria massages me, I always stand up from the massage table feeling like I am expanded to my full height, and my breath is deep and full. I highly recommend Victoria.”

“I am so grateful for Victoria! She has helped me so much with pain management.

“Victoria is a rare healer. Her art and passion for massage therapy has transformed my body, lifestyle, and self-care habits. I have had chronic neck and back pain for nearly a decade, due to sports injuries. Countless practitioners have failed to address the core root of my injuries. I had almost given up on the healing modality of massage until I met Victoria. My experiences with her have blown me away! I’ve regained a level of flexibility, performance, and strength that I’ve lacked for years! Her dedication and skills are remarkable and unique!”
