A lifelong healer and Eaton Fire survivor, Yvette brings over 25 years of experience as a licensed integrative massage therapist, offering deeply intuitive, custom-tailored bodywork. Her approach weaves together sports massage, deep tissue, Swedish, myofascial release, reflexology, Reiki, lymphatic drainage, and pregnancy massage—always guided by what each body needs in the moment. With a calm presence and trauma-informed touch, Yvette believes every body holds its own story. She takes the time to listen, assess, and uncover that story alongside each client, then guides them on a personal healing journey using the modalities best suited to their unique needs. By integrating mind, body, and spirit, her work supports healing on both physical and energetic levels. Each session is designed to restore balance, relieve pain, and cultivate a deep sense of safety, grounding, and renewal.
A powerful blend of integrative massage techniques—including tissue manipulation, PNF stretching, neuromuscular re-education, and EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique)—works to reset the body, rewire old patterns, and restore balance from the inside out. Using muscle testing, the provider taps into the body’s innate intelligence to identify the root causes of both physical and emotional imbalances, creating real transformation beyond symptomatic relief. This approach is especially helpful for chronic pain, acute injuries, tension, and calming an overstimulated nervous system.
