I made an appointment with Rosa for an abdominal massage which was well worth it.. She has a wonderful presence and demeanor. She imparted a wealth of knowledge and to top it off, some back pain that was longering for years completely vanished. I had been contemplating going back to a chiropractor to resolve this back pain but who would thought that her dominal massage was the answer. I noticed its absence the moment I got off the massage table. So, two for one! I'm so happy I found her and I'm looking forward to my 2nd visit tomorrow. read more

I can't say enough great things about Fertile Hands and Rosa. I know she's known as the "pregnancy whisperer," but she also helped me tremendously with my fibroids and getting my body back on track after dealing with major issues. I've seen her twice now, and each experience has been incredible. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a holistic approach to help with fibroids. read more

I met Rosa six years ago, and she has been with me through two pregnancies and post-partum recoveries since then. I have always been amazed by her intuitive skill, thorough knowledge, good heart and integrity, all of which she brings with her to every massage. Whenever I go to Rosa for a massage, it isn't just to get a nice feeling and some relaxation. I got to Rosa because I know she will help me put my body back together and those benefits are longer-lasting than any massage I have received from anyone else before. I have lost track of how many times I have recommended her to family members, friends, and clients that I work with. My husband has also been to see Rosa. At first, he thought Rosa only worked with women and fertility, only to discover that she is equally amazing with athletic recovery, lymphatic drainage, and other areas of massage and detoxification. Rosa is more than just a trained massage therapist, she has a gift of healing hands. She may as well be a doctor! ARC is a hidden gem for athletic recovery, and takes any serious athlete's training to the next level. She has the perfect balance of knowledge, technology, and privacy to meet your recovery needs. For all you weekend warriors who are looking for the fastest recovery, you won't find a place better than this! Anything that Rosa doesn't know how to do herself, she's really great about referring you to other people on her team. read more

Rosa is the real deal. I've seen her several times during my pregnancy and postpartum, and she's been the only one to truly help with complex pain related to the pregnancy and delivery. She's thorough, attentive, strong, and all around amazing at what she does. Her new space is wonderful - very clean, inviting, and has lots of tools to aid in health and wellbeing. read more

I first came to Rosa over three years ago when I was struggling with infertility, and she turned out to be a true blessing in disguise. After just two fertility massage sessions, I found out I was pregnant! Fast forward to over three years later, I was having a hard time conceiving again. I went back to Rosa, and once again, after just two massages, I got a positive pregnancy test. I truly can't thank her enough. Not only is Rosa incredibly knowledgeable, but she's also one of the kindest and most welcoming people I've ever met. I'm so grateful I found her, and I can't wait to return for prenatal massages. Thank you, Rosa, for everything! read more

Rosa is pure magic, strength, experience, and ease I'm currently 36 weeks pregnant (which she knew as soon as I walked in), and I've been craving a deep massage for the last few months. Most prenatal massages I've had recently have been too gentle for my liking / needs, and Rosa struck the perfect balance of getting into alllllll the pressure points, stuck fascia, and muscle tension, in addition to getting my lymphatic system moving again and helping me feel more at ease and relaxed immediately. Rosa also offered other modalities such as the "hammer + chisel" and scraping on my back when she noticed that my fascia was more stiff - feeling so good right now! I wish I had come to see her throughout my entire pregnancy - so grateful to meet her during this last stretch. Can't wait to come back for a labor prep / encouragement session in a few weeks, and for postpartum recovery after baby arrives. Highly recommend for any mamas! read more

Fertile Hands - Prenatal/Perinatal Care Near Me - Monrovia, California

Rosa is an incredible bodyworker. She goes very veryyyyy deep (that dang trigger point work!). It's akin to those Chinese/Asian massages that have you grimacing in pain, but the good kind. She is extremely gifted in a variety of modalities, including fertility, pregnancy, lymphatic, sports, the list goes on. Many women have gone to see her and have gotten pregnant soon after. It's definitely worth a shot if you're trying to conceive! read more

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Rosa! I booked a 75 minute prenatal massage around my 26 week of pregnancy. Prior to booking I was in the phase where everything hurt at the end of the day, I was sleeping awful, and could never get comfortable - so I knew it was time for a good massage. This massage is not your typical soft and enjoyable prenatal massage, like most good massages you know it works if you squeem a couple of times while on the table. Rosa adjusted me and pinpointed all of the places I was having pain and worked each area out and adjusted me accordingly. It's amazing how knowledgeable she is. I left the appointment floating out the room and to my car in the parking lot and slept that night like I did in my pre-pregnancy comfortable days. Three days later and I still feel great. I wish I would have found Rosa sooner. I definitely plan on going back in four weeks and until I give birth. Especially love that she offers breach massages and massages that help induce labor + if I am able to give birth naturally I plan on hitting her up for vaginal steaming. read more

I saw Rosa in my third trimester after persistent and excruciating back pains. After the first session, I left feeling light and anew. She is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about her work. Just through touch, she is able to pinpoint the cause of my pain and relieve the tension through massage. Be warned that this is not your typical massage, each session can get unpleasant but the moment you step off the table, you feel a sense of relief that lasts. She is pricey but totally worth it. I highly recommend! read more

I struggle with PCOS and as always, my doctor recommended i either get back on birth control or take progesterone to induce my period-i refused. A friend of mine who is dealing with endometriosis referred me to Rosa. Before i met Rosa, i had a missing period of 7 months. I scheduled myself a consultation and massage. Rosa spent an hour with me going over my reproductive health, suggesting supplements and minerals to add to my diet. The massage itself was not painful just slightly uncomfortable due to tension in my belly-as the massage went on, relief came in. The following day, i was dealing with cramps and started my period! Unbelievable. read more

In my first visit with Rosa, I was drawn to her calm and caring energy. Rosa is full of knowledge in many facets of wellness and I very much enjoyed learning from her and am in the midst of executing her many suggestions for me. Her massage technique is also exceptional and I would not hesitate to return to her. Consider her for her wholesome approach to wellness. Come and try at least one modality and you will see the variety she has. read more

I loved the massage.. she talked me through the process. Can't wait to go back for more treatments. Thank you!

She is the best talks about everything she is going to do step by step her massages work I'm currently 10 weeks pregnant

I've been dealing with Stage 4 endometriosis and infertility. I follow Fertile Hands on social media, read the the wonderful reviews, healing and successful story's Rosa has done. I finally made an appointment for today, she is so sweet and knows her stuff! I just told my husband how lucky I am to have meet her! After my consultation, I feel much more confident, less stressed and hopeful I will become a mom one day with the help of Rosa. I'm excited to have her be part of our journey! Now, I have some fun homework to do. : ) Thank you so much! read more

Rosa is absolutely amazing. She helped me with my first baby in making sure my body was aligned also made sure my baby was in the right position to start labor. I was 41 and 5 days and the next day, I went into labor. Rosa helped me feel lighter and loosened up my body as well. I recommend her to everyone and came back to her for my second baby. She's totally worth it and is a true life saver! read more

Rosa is so AMAZING! I had hip pain for some time now, and I was seeing a chiropractor for it. They would do minor adjustments and had me do daily stretches, which helped a little bit. But I was still in pain. I just felt they didn't really "get in there". When I got pregnant, they told me there wasn't much they could do about it because of my condition. They would only adjusted my neck and called it a day. As I got bigger it progressively got more and more painful. It was to the point where it was painful to walk and to sleep on my side. Since I got a pregnancy massage from Rosa I had been pain free. She wasn't afraid to really get in there. She knew exactly where my pain was, without me telling her. I am forever grateful. I am 8 months pregnant, and now I can walk freely and sleep on my side again! I will be definitely coming back. read more

After having a baby, I felt like my body was in need of a lot of healing. Rosa is probably one of the most knowledgeable and effective massage therapists I've ever seen. She is not only a wealth of knowledge about the human body but I feel like she is putting me back together after having two kids! I have gotten many massages in my life and she is definitely in a league of her own. I really appreciate her holistic approach that makes me feel balanced and whole. read more

Rosa helped flip my breech baby at 37 weeks! I was referred to her by my chiropractor Kolleen Gregory, and between the two of them, they really opened up SO much space in my hips to allow my babe to move head down. I had been doing inversions and breech tilts for over a week and an ultrasound confirmed she wouldn't budge, but less than 24 hours after my treatment with Rosa she flipped on her own and I was able to cancel my ECV scheduled for the following day. Besides her high competence in this area (and general passion which was evident in how she is dedicated to staying current with best practices) she was also lovely and easy to talk to. Got me in right away as well given the quick timing of my OB appointments. I can't thank her enough!! read more

Thank you Rosa for taking time to educate me and give me hope! Not only did I get a great massage but I learned so much more from you than I did the whole year I spent at Kaiser's infertility clinic! Rosa taught me how to give myself a fertility massage to increase my chances to have a baby! My husband and I have been trying for 3 years now just to find out from Rosa it's probably been challenging due to my uterus being tilted to the left. So she showed me a great technique to get it back into place! Also, she gave me advice regarding my endometriosis! I was getting ready to give up on my dream to become a mom, but I'm feeling more hopeful now, thanks to Rosa! read more

Once in awhile you come across a healer whose understanding of the physical body is extraordinary; Rosa is such a healer. Her extensive background ranges from physiotherapy to Mayan massage. She also has expertise in a variety of other alternative and traditional practices such as yoni steaming. She has played an integral part in my healing and understanding of my own body starting from structural and postural to esoteric and subconscious. I highly recommend her if you want to conquer your dis-ease; she is the one to go to. Thank you Rosa for your care on my path and I look forward to our continued work together. read more

There just enough good things I can say about Rosa! From her calming office to her tried and true methods I appreciate her more than I words can describe. She's got healing hands and knows exactly how to work your body. I've been seeing her for fertility/Mayan abdominal massage. She doesn't just stick to one way of doing anything. She more so customized each treatment to what your body needs. If you've got strained ligaments affecting your uterus alignment she'll work on that. If your uterus is tilted she'll work more on your abdomen. If your lower back is strained she'll work on that as part of her treatment. Rosa truly lives by the notion that fertility is about your whole being snd being balanced. So she'll often give you suggestions as she talks to you during the treatments. Also, she's got a great personality! She's confident in what she does, she's calming and also super fun and just a really honest person. She'll say things as she sees them as she's working on you. And she talks you through the treatments so she can help you figure out how to incorporate more ideas to help with your overall being! Fertility is definitely a journey... and Rosa is the best person to be on this journey with! read more

I strongly recommend Rosa!!! My hubby and i had being trying to get pregnant for over a yr and with a visit with Rosa, I got pregnant!! I did the fertility massage in which we learned that my uterus was tilted back and shifted to the right. Thankfully rosa aligned me up and helped the bby to stick!! Her hands are magic and more importantly, she knows what shes doing. I'm currently 29 weeks pregnant, got my massage a week after my peak and tested a few days after with my first ever BFP read more

Just wanted to tell u the good news! I'm 19 weeks pregnant!! I went to see Rosa a few times for fertility massage, but she also worked on lymphatic drainage massage with me and recommended some supplements for me. Specially the iodine protocol which she said I was probably deficient. She took the time and explained to me she was doing each step of the way during her massages. I felt so comfortable with her. I was open minded and really took in the wealth of knowledge she holds. I just want to thank Rosa so much so all her help and advice! ( She has magic/healing hands and will be booking a prenatal massage soon and will be recommending her to my sister in law who is TTC) read more

Rosa is amazing! I booked my wife an appointment during her pregnancy with twins. My wife really enjoyed the massage. Rosa was able to pin point my wife's old injury from over 15 years ago! Rosa made my wife feel like a whole new person. I booked my wife another appointment when she was 33 weeks pregnant, but she ended up going into early labor. I quickly canceled my appointment with Rosa and texted her at 2am to let her know. Rosa gave me a refund right away. We are looking forward to Rosa's postpartum recovery massage. read more

Rosa is extremely detailed and knowledgeable about the massage therapy services she provides. She'll keep you in the loop during the whole process, which is important because that education is critical for knowing what to do or what not to do going forward. One if my concerns going in has always been maintaining a healthy body as I age and I definitely left with the information I needed. Thanks Rosa :-) read more

When a woman decided she is ready to conceive but finds out that it won't be as easy as a soft kiss and a night with the man she loves it can be a devastating reality. On top of fertility issues, imbalances in the womb can create blockages in every aspect of womanhood. I've been on a journey to naturally shrink fibroids for the past 6 years, fearing surgery for reasons most women with fibroids can relate to. After a trip abroad in Kenya I discovered a technique that incorporates womb massage, something that I hadn't been aware of in the states, so when I returned home I began researching fertility massages and the power they have to align the uterus and balance the womb. When I contacted Rosa the first time I had no idea what a gift she would become to my life. She is like a fruit tree, that extends its branches far and wide bearing all that is nourishing to the soul and body. Our initial conversation was close to 20 minutes and all I wanted was a couple questions answered about Maya Massage modality. Instead it served as a consultation in which I was introduced to an entirely new world of energetic healing. Through Rosa I've been educated on ways to keep myself off of the operating table as well as the steps necessary to conceive and grow a child in a healthy environment. Rosa talks hormones, toxins, exercise, meditation, vaginal steaming and herbs. I've found that she often has and an answer for all of my questions, and If she doesn't, she is consistent about following up with texts that address my concerns in detail. I don't feel rushed, instead I'm lulled into a deep meditative relaxation inhaling the warm scent of lavender in her massage room. She has a bumper for my belly that makes it comfortable to lie on it while getting massaged and talking with her during my visits is like having a girlfriend who is a healer and gives the BEST massage you've ever had. I mean, have you ever had your chest plate massaged or your back fully cupped and massaged simultaneously? I highly recommend Rosa as a starting point for anyone with fertility concerns, fibroids, cysts or energetic imbalances. She's continuing to work with me and give me hope. When one embarks upon a holistic journey it is of utmost importance that you're surrounded by people with healing energy and faith. I believe Rosa has been blessed with both. Thank you. read more

She spent 90% of the hour consultation trying to sell me supplements and going over the articles she wrote on her blog based on anecdotes, not actual scientific studies. Saying things like how supplements cured one lady's cancer. I understand the importance of vitamins & nutrients but I eat a good diet and take a prenatal vitamin. When I would bring things like that up, she would cut me off and say I need to listen to her in a very confrontational tone. I went there just hoping to feel heard & get some compassion after some bad experiences with doctors. But instead it made me feel silenced and trapped. I tried to be nice and say "I just don't think that's for me" and she would hold her hand up to stop me and continue on talking and talking. Unfortunately a lot of what she shared comes from misinformation, not everything of course, but a lot of it. For example, she would say that the full spectrum of B vitamins were important for fertility, which is true. But then would say that all animals' fertility cycles link up with the lunar cycle, which is not true. I excused myself before the massage portion because I just didn't feel comfortable. She offered a half refund at the time, but the refund never actually processed. So I just felt compelled to share my experience because it was so opposite the other reviews. read more

I'm 36 weeks pregnant and I had the best massage all the weight was taken off my legs and back. Legs felt really heavy and now I my legs feel light. read more

I have been seeing Rosa for over 3 years. I first started seeing her for painful periods and fertility. Not only did I feel better but I understood what was going on with me. I was impressed with the knowledge she had about menstruation and fertility. During my massage Rosa explained to me what she was doing and why. Most masseuses will not take the time to do this and I've had my share. Every time I see her I learn something new. I've seen her for the following: painful periods, fertility, prenatal massage, induction massage, and deep tissue massage. Rosa has also done cupping and gua sha. All of which I've been very satisfied with. I suffer from neck, and shoulder pain. Rosa has given me exercises to do at home to maintain between visits with her. Again I don't know any other masseuse who will do that. She truly cares about her clients and it shows. I recommend her to all my friends and family. Everyone who I've recommended has been very pleased. read more

She was not helpful amd she charged 250 for a "Consult" which she didnt ask me anything she just massaged my thighs. She just kept talking about vaccines and didnt care to ask anything about me. read more

I highly recommend Rosa for prenatal massages. I've had pain at 28 weeks and finally decided to treat myself to a massage. She was great and relieved a lot of tension. She's also very informative and great to talk to during the massage. I am very comfortable with her and can't wait until my next appointment. read more

Rosa's hands are amazing. She knows RIGHT where to go to bring long lasting relief. A massage with Rosa is always so much more than a massage...no matter what is going on with me, she always knows an herb or other modality which can help me, and points me in the right direction. I very much look forward to my monthly sessions with her, and cannot recommend her enough! read more

Rosa is great!! I have had several massage therapy sessions with Rosa, she has magic hands, and she has really helped me out. She has also been a wealth of information for me during my journey towards optimal health. I recommend her for all the services she provides. read more

Rosa and I met at a cupping class a couple of years ago, but I did not realize she practices Arvigo therapy until a couple of weeks ago. I actually manifested an Arvigo practitioner and could not find one. Rosa's knowledge and skill is superb. Her understanding of the anatomy and women's physiology is excellent. Her sessions will benefit people who are trying to get pregnant, have hormonal imbalance, digestive issues, etc. Not only Rosa will explain during the session how to perform Stomach massage, she will also supply a handout by email how one can do it at home. While Rosa performs her therapy, she is able to point out if your internal organs are functioning properly and give you further recommendations. I give Rosa the highest rating and will definitely come back and refer clients to her. Sofia Ianovskaia read more

I reached out to her this weekend over text to ask about her availability since I am 39 weeks pregnant and was looking for an appointment either on Monday or Tuesday. She replied with a date and time (not even with a greeting as I am a potential new customer). I agreed to Monday at 6:15pm. I also asked for her office address in a way to confirm our appointment since she was very short on text. However, she never followed up. So, I texted her the day of massage to confirm as I am heading to her office...mind you it's raining! She "liked" my message so I took that as confirmation. I should have know better, but I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt, especially after seeing her amazing reviews. When I get to her office, the door is locked. I texted her. No reply. I assumed she's with another client , and I graciously waited (in the rain). I called her but her phone was off and you can't leave a voice message. I texted her again, but no reply. I ended up leaving 15-20 minutes after. I never got a courtesy text or call with explanation or apology. I understand she was her online booking system, but she shouldn't have given me an appointment date and time if she wasn't going to see me. And if payment is needed before confirmation, then she could have instructed me to pay before by either calling or texting me. I would have gladly done it. To me, this was very unprofessional and could have been prevented if she had better communication with potential new customers. read more

Rosa is such a blessing. the only professional I've seen so far to want to review my charts/temps. She is very knowledgeable and actually cares. She reached out to me several times following my appt to make sure I understood everything. Such a breath of fresh air to finally see a professional who can relate and truly cares about your well being. read more

I just walked or maybe I floated out of my massage. I had a prenatal massage at message envy and assumed that all prenatal massages had to be extremely gentle and boring. But thank goodness I found Rosa . She has a very gently touch yet firm pressure on all the right spots. She stretched my entire body and made sure I knew what was going on the entire time. Love read more

Make an appointment and she never showed up, she said I have to wait 2 hours. Until she gets here.i did text the day before that I was interested read more

Simply amazing!!!! Rosa is awesome! I can't compare with nobody else! She is extremely knowledgeable and the way she teaches me and guides me through out my session is great!!! This is only my second appointment and I'm feeling great! She gave me pointers on what to do at home, and I'm definitely going to follow. I'm planning on going back soon! Can't wait!!!! Thank you Rosa! May God bless you with more wisdom! read more

Rosa is the best! She is very knowledgeable on the female reproductive system and provides you with a wealth of knowledge on how to naturally conceive as well as balance your hormones. I will admit that I have a very regular period cycle and saw Rosa at the very beginning when we were TTC. However, the information she provided is useful to any women TTC or not. I became pregnant two weeks after seeing her. read more
