Hi! I’m Rachel. I bring nearly three decades of healthcare experience into my work as a massage therapist, blending clinical knowledge with a grounded, compassionate approach to healing and recovery. After years working as a nurse, I felt called to move beyond traditional “sick care” and toward helping people feel strong, connected, and well in their everyday lives.

I am passionate about supporting active individuals, athletes, and anyone dealing with stress, tension, burnout, or chronic pain. Influenced by my love of functional fitness and whole-body wellness, I believe massage is more than relaxation — it is an important tool for recovery, nervous system regulation, and overall health.

My goal is to create a space where clients feel genuinely cared for, supported, and empowered in their wellness journey. Whether someone is recovering from training, managing daily stress, or simply wanting to feel better in their body, I want each session to feel intentional, restorative, and personalized.

I have three boys who are grown now, one crazy dog and a wonderful life partner of 25 years. When I’m not working, you’ll likely find me at CrossFit Manana, on a patio somewhere having a great cup-o-joe, or enjoying the beauty and spirit of the high desert.
