My goal is to provide a holistic experience and to create space for my clients to unwind mentally, emotionally and physically. As well as helping each client figure out how to use their bodies with the greatest ease and efficiency. My work is eclectic. I incorporate Myofascial Release, NeuroMuscular Therapy, Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, Active-Isolated Stretching, and some other modalities to create a deep-tissue massage that allows restrictions in the tissue and fascia of the body to release and unwind.

About Rachel
Report
I started practicing bodywork in the Pioneer Valley in 2002. I spent the first three years working at Ochoa Day Spa in South Hadley. Which was an invaluable experience. Not only did I learn how to keep my center and stay grounded for the numerous clients I would treat in a day, but I learned the ethics of business and having a practice.
Myofascial Release
Report
Myofascial release technique or structural fascial release technique is a type of direct bodywork that engages the myofascia, using forearms, fists, knuckles and fingertips to slowly stretch the restricted areas. By applying firm pressure and encouraging movement initiated by the client, the tissue is slowly stretched or elongated.
Neuromuscular Therapy
Report
NeuroMuscular Therapy (NMT) is a very specialized form of massage. NMT therapists go through extensive training and have a very thorough knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the body. NMT incorporates various techniques such as static pressure, cross-fiber friction and long gliding strokes which are applied to the soft tissue of the body (muscles, tendons and connective tissue) to release trigger points and knots. The entire length of the muscle is addessed, providing a very specific yet through massage.
Craniosacral Therapy
Report
Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment, that is based on the science that each cell of our body breathes and holds an original blueprint of health, that gets formed when we are embryos. We all have the inherent ability to align with that health, dispite disease, physical and/or unresolved emotional trauma that gets stored in the body.
