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. 

While starting a successful massage career Larken was having trouble putting her face out there. Having bad skin was a bit of a confidence hit. She really started to learn more about skin hair from the inside out. While working as a massage instructor she found out about the School of Botanical and Medical Aesthetics and fell in love with the skin care industry. Larken graduated and was licensed in aesthetics in 2019. She is very excited to share her passion with others.

What an amazing massage. I cannot recommend Larken enough for her skill, professionalism, and attention to detail. Definitely one of the best massage experiences I have had in Summit County in the past 13 years. Sending all my friends Larkin's way so they too can have their best massage of their lives.

Efficiency with my massage by Larken. She was able to reach all my affected areas in sensitive places without discomfort. I was relaxed and still am after my much needed therapeutic session!

Larken is amazing! With three kids at home, going to Larken to work out our aches & pains is a mini-vacation we look forward to every month. Kind, relaxed and professional. Simply the best!

Wonderful massage with great attention to my trouble spots. I’ve found my go to spot for a massage in Summit County.

I'm thankful to have found Larken after my long time massage therapist retired. She listens to what is going on and I always leave feeling better than when I came in.

Larken was professional in talking about what was going to happen, asking about pressure, etc. Larken was friendly too; I’m a talker so we talked through the massage about many topics and it was great!

It was the first time I had "Assisted Stretching." I like it better than the massage. It helped me to loosen the tight muscles and I learned some stretching I could do myself at home between the appointments. Thank you, Larken!

Larken is amazing! I loved my massage, I went in for relaxation and stress relief and left feeling fully rejuvenated. I can't wait to go back!
