Mobile Massage Therapy in Santa Monica
Expert Deep Tissue & Myofascial Release in the Comfort of Your Home

With nearly a decade of experience—including four years as the top-booked therapist at Equinox Spa Beverly Hills—I bring professional, therapeutic massage directly to your home.
Whether you're recovering from a beach run along the coastline, dealing with post-workout soreness from training at the Santa Monica Stairs, managing desk-work tension, or simply maintaining your wellness routine, I provide personalized massage sessions tailored to your specific needs.

Why Choose Mobile Massage in Santa Monica?
Convenience Without Compromise Skip the drive down Montana Avenue, the hunt for parking near the Promenade, and the rush to get back home. I bring everything needed for a professional massage session—table, linens, music, and aromatherapy—directly to you.
Privacy & Comfort Relax in your own space where you're most comfortable. Many Santa Monica clients appreciate the convenience of in-home sessions, especially after active beach days or long workouts. No need to navigate Third Street traffic—just pure relaxation at home.
Exceptional Experience As a graduate of the National Holistic Institute who finished top of my class, and former lead therapist at Equinox Beverly Hills, I deliver the same caliber of service you'd expect from premium coastal spas—without the spa price tag or inconvenience.
Flexible Scheduling Morning appointments before your beach walk, midday sessions between meetings, evening wind-downs after sunset yoga, or weekend self-care—I work around your schedule.

What to Expect from Your Santa Monica Mobile Massage

During Your Session Each session is fully customized. Whether you need intensive deep tissue work on your shoulders and neck, full-body myofascial release, or relaxing Swedish massage, I adapt to what your body needs that day. My approach is intuitive and holistic—not one-size-fits-all.
After Your Session I'll pack up quietly while you continue to relax. Many clients schedule regular weekly or monthly sessions to maintain their results and manage stress.
