Larken’s main goal is to provide therapeutic relaxation by developing a customized plan for each client. She will work with individual needs and her knowledge of an assortment of therapeutic techniques to bring about a state of physical, mental and social well-being.

Larken’s passion for full body wellness started while in high school. Because of a repetition injury from competitive swimming she started seeing a chiropractor weekly. When this did not improve her problem, she found and fell in love with massage therapy, which helped her continue her swimming. An interest in the human body and wellness continued at the University of Connecticut where she graduated in 2011 with studies in kinesiology, psychology, and health science.

After college, Larken moved to Colorado to enjoy the mountains and be outside daily with her puppy. During this time she found her previous experience, health focused education plus a passion to work with people was pointing her to massage therapy. She graduated from the Colorado School of Healing Arts in 2015 with an AOS in Massage Therapy with certification in lymphatic drainage, sports massage and reflexology. Since that time Larken has become a Reiki 3 practitioner and studied Thai massage therapy with Rob Martin. Recently she also became a certified ashiatsu therapist with DeepFeet Therapy. 

Larken has been working in massage, bodywork, and wellness for over 10 years. With a B.S. in Kinesiology and training in massage therapy, sports massage, Thai massage, yoga, and a variety of therapeutic techniques, her approach combines an understanding of movement and anatomy with intentional, restorative touch.

In addition to massage and bodywork, Larken offers private yoga sessions for those looking for a more individualized approach to movement. Sessions can incorporate Vinyasa, breathwork, meditation, hands-on assists, mobility, and one-on-one exploration of poses and sequences.

Whether you're here to move, recover, relax, or simply take better care of yourself, the goal is the same: helping you find a little more balance.

I received a sports massage, and Larken was very professional! She was able to tailor it to my marathon training and focused on areas where I needed it the most!

Larken was amazing! She is very thorough and skilled at what she does. I own a food truck, and my body pays the price. This was one of the best massages I've ever had. I'll definitely be making another apt soon.

I had a great experience with Larkin. My first time trying this type of Northern Thai massage and I loved it. The gentle stretches of my muscles was exactly what I needed. Highly recommend for women over 60 looking for a way to regain flexibility. I need to seek out someone to do this for me back in my home state. Thank you Larkin. I will be back!

Larkin knows exactly what you need even when you can't explain it yourself. She is also quite skilled in working with tendonitis and I left feeling like a new person.
