About Us
I specialize in Trigger Point Therapy and Sports Massage. I attended and graduated from International Professional School of Bodywork (IPSB) in 2015 and have work in chiropractor offices for about 3 years until I opened my own office. If I'm not working, I'm either hiking, surfing or going on adventures.

What an amazing massage with Nellie, I have had numerous massages due to the tightness and pain in my shoulder blade and up to my neck. Nellie was able to work out the area and I am going on day 3 with less pain. Thank you Nellie. I will see you soon for my next appointment.

Nellie Riddle should be your go-to whenever you have the need to de-stress your life. I've had multiple massages by Nellie and I always feel relaxed and rejuvenated after every session. There's a reason she's called the Knotfinder!

No other massage therapist i have been to truly understands trigger point resolution as well as Nellie. I had been struggling with chronic pain of "unknown cause" for 10 years, and i now feel much better after just 1 session! I'm finally hopeful i can be completely pain-free soon. I have the utmost gratitude for Nellie's expertise!

Nellie is able to get right to the root of the issue (which is sometimes not obvious, at least to me) to solve the underlying problem rather than just address the symptoms. And she's very nice too. :-)

If you need more than relaxation then Nellie is the therapist for you. She also showed her gentler side as well so I know it’s there when that’s all I want. I am an active 58 year old and have ignored so much tightness by blaming it on age. Turned out to be false and I’m looking forward to more freedom of motion over the next few months.

I liked EVERYTHING about my experience, from parking space to ambiance to my massage, AND recommended stretches. Nellie's skill is AMAZING. I would totally recommend The Knotfinder to anyone who asked me, and probably to those who didn't ask me. It was a great day for me, as I went from The Knotfinder to a chair yoga class with Aundria that was just right for me.

Nellie is a great massage therapist. She has a magic touch, her fingers do a miracle. I had pain in my neck for so many months and I had seen a chiropractor and acupuncture none of them could do anything for me to ease the pain....
After going to Nellie for the first session the pain was much much better. The name KNOTFINDER is the perfect to describe Nellie. That name really suits her.......
You have no idea until you try her until then you would be missing out so much.
I highly recommend her and every penny you invest is well worth it.

The location is important to me because it's very close to my home. Another big plus was having a bathroom in the suite. With many other places you have to use a bathroom down the hall. Rooms were decorated tastefully; simple, pleasant, clean & airy not heavy & dark like some. We had to make a couple of changes to the appointment & Nellie was very accommodating. She is very friendly & makes you feel welcome right away. She is very attentive to requests. I am not able to comment on every minute of the massage because I fell asleep! Which is a good reflection on how relaxed she got me! I will definitely be returning.
