Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation in who you are. -Chinese Proverb

I graduated from Boulder College of Massage Therapy in 2004. After school I worked at a local hospital and was the lead massage therapist working with patients in ICU, Med/Surg, Pre Op, and New Life. In addition to that I worked in the Physical Therapy department where I would work with people that had chronic pain, joint replacements and anyone who needed general relaxation.

I graduated from Boulder College of Massage Therapy in 2004. After school I worked at a local hospital and was the lead massage therapist working with patients in ICU, Med/Surg, Pre Op, and New Life. In addition to that I worked in the Physical Therapy department where I would work with people that had chronic pain, joint replacements and anyone who needed general relaxation.

My husband and I decided to pursue our dreams and make the move to Washington in 2012. Since I have been in Washington I have worked on many people in need of pain reduction, general relaxation or help in reducing anxiety and depression.

What I love about massage is helping people feel good, helping people to take time to be conscious of the body as a whole and helping people feel a little less anxious in this fast paced world. My work has brought many different people and bodies on my table. I have experience in neuromuscular/injury treatment, prenatal/postpartum, intraoral and relaxation where I provide massage at my private practice in Tacoma.

Varity is the best massage therapist I've encountered. She is personable, professional, and extremely talented. I felt comfortable as soon as I came in. It's a beautiful and peaceful setting. Though I never planned to get consistent massages, I'm absolutely a regular.

Varity is amazing. She really knows how to work and smooth out all those nasty knots in my shoulders. I always leave her studio relaxed and refreshed. I highly recommend Varity for your next massage. Susan C.

After my massage I went to my Chiropractor appointment and the Chiropractor moved my back into shape with ease. Later I met my wife for lunch and then went home. Later while watching TV I was so relaxed that I fell asleep, and awoke refreshed.
