Even walking onto the grounds... it is a mesmerizing experience, beautiful stone walkways surrounded by exquisite floral delight. This massage studio is unique in atmosphere and healing techniques. The sound bath is truly divine.

I've had two massages by Roxanne. Most recently my main concern was a tight and painful neck I've…read morebeen struggling with for months. She worked on it with a combination of hot stones, her hands and other tools - tuning forks, different bells that are new to me - and for the first time in ages it is pain free and I have full range of motion back. If you're used to "traditional" Swedish or other massages, some of what Roxanne does will be unfamiliar and seem a bit strange. If you can trust that she knows what she's doing (which she does) and experience it, at the very least you will have tried something new but likely, you will feel the benefit. If you don't want those things however - just tell her! She listens well and constantly seeks education on new techniques and healing massage therapy approaches. She also checks in throughput the session to make sure the pressure and other aspects are comfortable and acceptable. Besides that she is kind and generous with her time and knowledge. Her studio is comforting and cozy too. I can't wait to go back.

When I first conceived of a trip to Orcas Island, I was looking for a restful getaway. With Erin…read morehelping to guide my trip, it turned out to be so much more. The massage/bodywork element to her work was exceptionally therapeutic by itself, but I'm really glad that I decided to have her curate a full, intentional retreat. Erin is incredibly intuitive and a gifted healer. I felt very open with her. After only a brief discussion, I found her suggestions for activities while I was there so personally and insightfully tailored to what I was going through. Her recommendations really helped me get lost in "deep time." Checking in with her at the end of my time on Orcas to discuss what I did and the significance I found in it was helpful for me to process it, and our visits framed my trip in a meaningful way. If you want an intuitive soul to help you traverse a meaningful transition in your life, I couldn't recommend Erin more highly.

I feel fortunate that Mary Jackson was able to see me on relatively short notice. She did…read morewonderful work focusing on my tight back which was acting up with sciatica. Felt better immediately afterwards, and for several weeks. She not only took care of me short term, but also recommended some exercises and postural strategies to prevent problems in the future. Would see her again in a heartbeat, highly recommended!

She called me back an hour later to say she was cancelling my appointment because "intuitively she did not think we were a good fit and I should know what that meant." Then she hung up on me. Well, I am LGBT so if she looked me up online that would have been clear. I would recommend avoiding this business.

I received a massage from Deborah a year ago and it was so therapeutic that it is still fresh in my…read moremind. The massage was done in her comfortable and warm home studio. Her vast experience was clear from the start. I've received many professional massages and she is truly a highly skilled and intuitive practitioner who seamlessly combines various modalities for a customized experience. Deborah took her time, focused on my areas of concern, worked deeply without causing me discomfort, and facilitated deep relaxation. I hope to have the opportunity to return to Orcas Island and I will contact Deborah again!

Mckenna is a gifted massage therapist and a very kind person overall! I have been getting…read moredeep-tissue massages weekly for years in California before I moved to Bellingham this summer, and I experimented with a few other practitioners before choosing Mckenna. She is strong and thorough and her studio is very comfortable. I enjoy our discussions before my massage and I am grateful for her attentive care. I am a pretty active person, I have a desk job, and I develop pain and tightness in my body during the week. After my sessions with McKenna, my body feels much more comfortable and free :)

Mckenna gave me a wonderful massage experience, intuitively finding each of the spots that needed finding and addressing each in a way where I felt transported to a very happy place. I felt relaxed, rejuvenated and emotionally and physically integrated by the end of it. I highly suggest you treat yourself to an experience with her.
