Our Therapists (Eagle)

Katelyn

I graduated from the prestigious school of Utah College of Massage Therapy in Lindon, UT with over 900 hours of schooling and clinic hours and a 4.0 GPA. I customize my modalities and technique to fit each and every client. Every person is different therefore no two massages will ever be the exact same. My favorite modalities are medium to deep tissue and Trigger Point while still having a relaxing Swedish technique.

My goal for every session is to make you feel better than when you came in. Your pain probably didn’t come overnight and it won’t be solved overnight but if you allow me the chance, I would love to see how I can help you to relieve your pain and discomfort. Whether you’re looking for pain relief, relaxation or would like to experience your first massage, I would love to be a part of that experience. Let’s start a new you today!

Relaxation, Tranquility, Progress

Whether you want to ease your mind or work out the knots that are replacing your shoulders with your ears - I can do them both.

With a mixture of Deep Tissue, Myofascial Release, Swedish, and other various techniques, we can achieve balance. I have the gentle, intuitive, calming touch, and the precise firmness required to aliviate and manage muscle aches and tension.

Since graduating from the Insitute of Therapeutic Massage (Bloomfield,NJ, 2015) it has been extremely rewarding to have been able to bring individuals the care and wellness one deserves; both physically and mentally.

In this busy, hectic world, take the time to slow down time, feel rejuvenated, and ready to take on what's next.

Outside of massage you can expect to find me lost in music, in the outside world, and daydreaming about the ocean.

Ask me about upgrades!

John

My name is John and I am originally from Texas. I grew up outside of the Houston area and moved to Idaho Summer 2018. I have lived in a couple different countries and have traveled around much of the world as a backpacker.

I come from a Personal Training background and am a Certified NASM trainer. I have been involved with fitness training since 2015. I have been in the Massage Therapy field since 2017 and have a specialty certification in Sports Massage as well as IASTM (Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization) . My objective is to bring about positive change and address problem areas by working with the tissues/body/client. My style of work can be described as slow/calming, comprehensive, therapeutic, with medium to deep pressure. I also utilize cupping, stones, blades/scrapers, and other tools if needed.

When not providing bodywork, you can often find me in nature hiking, backpacking, or soaking in hot springs. I also practice Qi Gong, yoga, and breathwork.

Josiah

My name is Josiah, and it has always been my dream to make a difference. Many people have come into my private practice and I have always strived to provide the best care for each of their individual needs. I believe that making a difference starts with people, so my goal has been to help each person who walks into my studio feel the best that they possibly can.

I have been working for myself up until this point and while I love running my own business, it tends to take too much time away from my wife and dog, so reaching out to Idaho Massage was the most amazing opportunity for me! This atmosphere allows me to watch more Netflix with my wife, mountain bike with my dog, and will also help me to further pursue my favorite hobby, blacksmithing! I hope to meet you in-person soon!

Taylor

Hello there! My name is Taylor and I welcome you to my space. I have been a practicing massage therapist for 8 years now and graduated from a private medical school in San Diego where I was born and raised and started my massage career working alongside chiropractors and physical therapists. I had my own private practice for 2 years prior to moving to Idaho. I've been in Idaho for almost 5 years now and have decided to make it home. I devote every ounce of love and care into all my sessions leaving you feeling renewed to the fullest extent.

My goal for each treatment is to target your specific needs and concerns to address the root cause of your symptoms you are facing. I can perform any pressure you desire from gentle swedish to deep therapeutic work. I specialize in Structural Integration, Deep tissue, Injury and Sports massage with Neuromuscular Techniques and Craniosacral therapy. I also can perform a vast amount of stretches incorporated into the massage.

From muscle fatigue to cramps and migraines I've helped many people recover from their chronic pain and stress.

"If you work with your hands, you are a laborer.
If you work with your hands and your head, you are a craftsman.
If you work with your hands, your head, and your heart; you are an artists."

Laurie

As a licensed massage therapist for the past 16 amazing years, I’m deeply rooted in helping the lives that I touch. I’m extremely passionate about what I do and that has not waivered since I received professional body work during my marathon training twenty years ago. It is that experience that pathed the way to my career as a licensed massage therapist. I am trained in Myofacial Release, Deep Tissue, Swedish, Some Reflexology and Thai Massage. I look forward to taking this journey together and being a part of your health care needs.

Aubrey

My training started in 2016 and I finished my Diploma of Remedial Massage Therapy at VFA Learning in Melbourne, Australia in 2018. I was able to transfer my knowledge and expertise to Idaho after passing the Idaho State Board Exam in 2019 when I decided to move to be closer to family. My experience has afforded me to work in varied settings and clientele from nursing homes, corporate, sports events, and at a five-star spa. Remedial Massage is a systematic approach to managing muscle pains due to injuries, soreness and tension. It employs various techniques such as proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching (PNF stretching increases the joint range of movement), trigger point therapy, myofascial release, deep tissue, and relaxation. I am also adept in cupping and hot stones which can be added to the treatment as an enhancement. When asked why I decided to enter this line of work, my response is, “I aspire to be like my late grandmother who died at the age of 99 years old. She was a massage therapist who was revered in her village as the healer. The amount of people she touched was amazing." It is fulfilling work to be in an occupation that facilitates your healing.

Brey

I have been a Certified Practicing Massage Therapist in Idaho since 1997. I went to massage school under Gayla Nickel, who was a founder of the National Certification exam for massage therapists and sat on the Idaho Licensing Board.

Over the years, I have branched out to learn many different modalities. My primary experience has been in assisting women in pre natal massage/labor support and infant massage. Through later giving birth to my own 8 children, my intuition in practicing massage was enhanced. My primary modalities are Swedish, Medical Massage and Structural Muscular-Balancing, along with a strong emphasis in energy healing techniques gained through my instruction in my advanced kinesiology certification. I give clients the added option of using
1- visualization energy release( certified hypnotist)
2-foot zone therapy
3- chi machine

4-tuning forks
3- hot stone
4-cupping
5-aroma therapy
I am very skilled in helping create a long term healing plan for my clients and addressing chronic pain and trauma recovery.

I am a volunteer for a child’s rights organization and teach couples, prenatal and infant massage classes through community education and outreach at birth centers and hospitals throughout the Treasure Valley. I would love to see a world where more of our youth receive regular professional massages. I was 17 when I received my first therapeutic massage and wished it would have been sooner! I look forward to helping your family discover wholistic healing through massage and body work and energy releasing freedom and peace.

Karen

I believe the human body has the amazing capability of healing itself. I’ve spent over 30 years studying and learning how the body moves, recovers and can improve itself. I have a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology and certification and training in Stott Pilates, NIA, Reiki, yoga, Medical Exercise Specialist, and Nutrition and Lifestyle Coach. In 1998 I went to massage school at the International School of Healing Arts in San Diego, CA.

Massage and Bodywork are very individualized. Communication is important. I enjoy customizing and specializing each session according to my clients’ needs. The types of massage that I generally do include deep tissue, trigger-point, Swedish, hot stone, cupping and prenatal.

I spent the last eight years living in South Texas. Primarily in the small Gulf Coast fishing town of Rockport and more recently in San Antonio. Being new to this area I look forward to exploring and seeing everything that the Treasure Valley has to offer. I am already enjoying the low-humidity!

Roger

Roger has been massaging since 2001. He specializes in orthopedic massage. He has an estimated 3000 hours of orthopedic massage experience. He has helped clients reduce and eliminate chronic and acute muscle pain in the neck, shoulder, upper and lower back as well as many other areas. Orthopedic massage balances and aligns the muscles which leads to longer lasting results. He has been trained by some of the top teachers in the nation such as James Waslaski, and Erik Dalton. His love of learning has led him to be educated as a personal trainer with a specialty in corrective exercise. This training has enhanced his knowledge of how the muscles work together and enhanced his orthopedic massage skills. He looks forward to helping you reduce or eliminate your muscle pain as well as help prevent muscle injury.

Tunde

Hi, my name is Tunde and I’ve been a massage therapist for a decade now. I graduated from Milan institute in 2011 with a passion to help people feel better in their bodies and I believe that prevention is the key in our health. From stress comes a lot of illness and if we can find a way to ease and slow-down in our everyday life and enjoy the little things it will help achieve the big goals in our life. I 100% believe good health comes from our everyday choices to care for yourself in a way that de-stresses you. Do the things in life that you enjoy and helps you achieve your goals as well. Here for you if you’re hurting with muscle soreness and will help you feel your best every time! Show you some stretches you can do at home in between appointments to keep you going.

I specialize in aromatherapy and Swedish relaxing massage, deep tissue and trigger point therapy. Hot stone massage and couples massages are always my favorite.

Also recently graduated from Paul Mitchell Boise with a cosmetology license and I’m able to provide you with a facial massage treatment. If you love a massage and facial combo book an appointment and let me relax and unwind you. I use organic products that are beneficial for your skin care. Facial treatments take about 30-45 minutes customized to your specific needs. Come and get a nice treatment to keep you in good health, because you deserve it! I’d love to be able to help you!
