Laura Skarpa

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11

I have been a massage therapist since 2006.  My certification in orthopedic massage in 2008 from James Waslaski revolutionized my practice.  I work to relieve pain by balancing muscles and restoring motion.  I have worked with soldiers, athletes and people of all ages.  I welcome the challenge of teaching people how to help themselves through stretching and strengthening.

Overall experience and massage was top notch. She has 20 years of experience and is very skilled and professional. Would definitely recommend Laura to anybody who has any type of back or hip pain.

Laura is the best

Just by looking at me she already knew several items that needed fixed. After a few motions she knew even more that I didn't know myself. Her knowledge, touch and experience are a tenfold blessing. I felt so much better afterwards it was amazing. No pain during or after! I had no idea how much I had normalized until I could hold myself upright, walk, even breath without struggle. Amazing isn't even close to enough. 5 stars is also not enough.

I had a sore achilles tendon, injured 6 months ago. I occasionally limped from the pain. The masseur, recommended by my chiropractor, had a gentle touch backed with a thorough knowledge of musculature. She had successfully relieved my frozen shoulder a couple of years back. Her presence was calming and her touch eased sore muscles surrounding the tendon. Again I felt relieved. I'm grateful this masseur is in our community of healers.
