Welcome
Leiya has been called to health and healing for years. She initially forged a career path in this direction in college by studying pre med. Mid college she signed up for a doula certification course, and the following year she assisted at an East Bay birthing center both as an intern and as a doula. She became clear that a life on call was not for her, but the community felt right. Leiya decided to become a certified massage therapist in 2015 and completed her training and certification in 2016. Today she has a bodywork practice that focuses especially on women, their wellbeing and renewal. However, all are welcome to receive bodywork from her. She considers her workspace to be a safe place for all community members, in particular this is underlined for people of color and those that identify within the LGBTQ community. Leiya offers, Swedish, Deep Swedish, Deep Tissue, Table Shiatsu, Pregnancy massage and Maya Abdominal Therapy in her practice. She hopes to serve her community and those who seek bodywork from her by offering a healing therapeutic touch that will allow for deep relaxation and rehabilitation. Leiya offers a sliding scale to single mothers, as a way of honoring and recognizing the incredible work and dedication of this particular population and that of her own mother.
