Welcome to Basalt+Balsam, where relaxation and expertise converge. I’m Emily, the founder and owner with 14 years of experience in therapeutic massage. My path into this profession began after experiencing firsthand the incredible benefits of massage during my recovery from a snowboarding injury and throughout my pregnancy. These transformative experiences fueled my passion for helping others find the same relief and rejuvenation. As a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), I bring a blend of clinical knowledge and compassionate care to every session.

At Basalt+Balsam, we are inspired by the dual elements of the name. "Basalt" represents the grounding, stabilizing energy akin to the powerful and therapeutic properties of basalt stones, often used in our treatments. "Balsam" signifies the soothing, healing qualities of nature’s own remedies, reflecting our commitment to nurturing your well-being. Our mission is to create a tranquil sanctuary where you can escape the stresses of everyday life and emerge feeling renewed. We look forward to guiding you on your journey to wellness and demonstrating the profound benefits of expert therapeutic care.
