SAFE INCLUSIVE SPACE to UNWIND & DESTRESS

  • “Fauna is a wonderfully skilled bodyworker! She creates a safe and supportive container, and helped me get the most out of my massage with a bit of gentle breathing and visualization guidance. She’s strong enough to do highly effective deep tissue work, but sensitive and responsive to any tenderness or pain points. She also introduced me to cupping, and it was fantastic. I will definitely be seeing her on a regular basis!”

    T.S.

  • “Fauna's massage was heavenly. Every touch was followed by exactly the very touch my body needed next. When I mentioned this to Fauna, she said "I'm just listening to your body - and what an excellent listener she is! Her hands are warm and soft and the pressure was always perfect. i came out of this massage feeling like my body had a total remodel.”

  • “Fauna is an excellent Massage Therapist! Every session allows me to unwind, relax and release tension in my body and mind. I so appreciate Fauna’s skills, knowledge and caring ways during each session. She is gentle but firm to allow my body and mind to open up and release. As a Massage Therapist also, I look for a massage that melds with my body and mind and Fauna’s massages are exactly what I neeed, want and love. I highly recommend Massage with Fauna!”

  • “I have had a few sessions with Fauna, and they have all been incredibly meaningful healing sessions. As a person who also does healing work myself, it is really special to find a practitioner who embodies the perfect balance on knowledge and intellect about the body, while having the intuition to hold a healing experience in a trauma informed and intentional way. Fauna’s strong and healing touch is impactful beyond words. I’m so grateful to have connected with Fauna, and it’s a gift to be on the receiving end of their gifts!”

  • “I’ve been a massage therapist for almost 10 years and am so impressed with Fauna’s skills. Not just the massage techniques she uses but her ability to connect, to listen, to communicate clearly so that you know she is really paying attention to what you need in that moment. As a fellow body worker, I can be picky about what I want for my massage sessions, but Fauna listened carefully and delivered what I asked for. She is definitely one of the best massage therapists I’ve been to.”

    K.S.

  • “I am wordless after my 1 1/2 hr. massages with Fauna. I sink into the table. She is highly intuitive and each stroke is intentional. Even though she uses the correct pressure I need, there is a tenderness in her actions that I appreciate. I highly recommend Fauna, she is one of the top three massage therapists in my life.”

Nice to meet you, I’m Fauna!

I feel so fortunate to call myself a Massage Therapist. I’ve spent hundreds and hundreds of hours getting to work with clients to help them feel more at home in their bodies. It’s an embodiment practice for me and many of my clients. We get into a flow state where the body-heart-mind connection can be more present, allowing the nervous system to reset, and for pain levels to decrease. Many who work with me feel more at peace within themselves after their sessions and it seems to overflow into their relationships at home and work. I see massage as a necessity for a overwhelming touch starved world. Studies reflect the multitude of benefits for mental health, chronic pain, autoimmune conditions, and stress. I firmly believe that therapeutic caring touch will support you, wherever you are in your life.

I have 1000+ hours of hands on training that informs my intuitive approach. I intentionally learn Eastern and Western modalities to blend into a holistic toolkit that works for just about everyone. Some of these modalities I’m trained in are CranioSacral, Tuina, Trigger Point, Abdominal massage, Facial massage, Breast massage, Traeger, Breema, Meditation, and Yoga.
