Come exactly as you are. Rest your mind body and spirit.
Hi, I’m Diana (or Dee). I am a Licensed massage therapist passionate about creating a healthier Gainesville by facilitating self care and providing a place of deep rest and relaxation for the people of our community.
My background before massage was in classical music and martial arts. Much like these arts, I believe true healing through massage requires dynamic techniques ranging from subtle to intense. Within my sessions you will find an entire orchestra of techniques personalized for each individual. Whether I am delicately placing a dab of rose water on your temples, or using Ashiatsu techniques to place my entire body weight on a stubborn glute muscle, presence and intention are at the heart of my work. Together we will engage your whole body and being in deep levels of relaxation to bring about authentic and lasting healing.
All too often I see people living in constant patterns of tension and pain, giving from an empty cup and ultimately ending in burnout.
Put your oxygen mask on first. Take a little time for yourself and enjoy deep rest for your mind, body and spirit. You deserve abundance. You deserve a massage.
“Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It’s a relationship between equals. Only when we know our own darkness well can we be present with the darkness of others. Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity”
