    I have been dreaming of becoming a massage therapist for many years.

    Once I started my journey to obtain my license, I knew it was the perfect fit for me. Giving massage is just as therapeutic for me as it is for any receiver of massage. One of my brothers told me that I looked so peaceful and loving when I was giving one of our sisters a shoulder massage. This was one of many moments that I realized I had made the right choice to get my massage therapist’s license.

    Massage is a way to help your body relax, repair, and be healthy!

Kelda’s intention is to meet each individual where they are at and support their goals for wellbeing.

    Kelda’s background includes 28 years in a corporate environment within incentive award operations, leadership, and technology. A 15-minute chair massage at work inspired her to learn Massage Therapy so that she could “help other people feel as amazing as I felt”.

    • Relaxation Massage – With relaxation as the focus, this full body massage includes light to medium pressure with an emphasis on common areas of tension.

By supplementing Deep Tissue, Neuromuscular Therapy, Myofascial Therapy, and other techniques as needed to ease areas of tension. These sessions are collaborative to ensure comfortable but challenging pressure and accuracy of treatment location for ultimate improvement.
    • Reflexology – This healing art brings deep relaxation, detoxification, pain relief, stimulation of all body systems, including the immune, musculoskeletal, and circulatory system to facilitate an overall balance and wellbeing.
