Christy worked with me for 11 weekly sessions, and the experience was genuinely transformative. She has an incredible ability to identify areas where I was holding deep tension -- even in places I hadn't consciously noticed. Her technique is unique and intentional. She doesn't just massage muscles; she works with fascia in a way that feels precise and intuitive. After each session, I felt taller, lighter, and noticeably more relaxed in my body. What stood out most was her holistic approach -- she evaluated how I walk, stand, and sit, helping me understand patterns I've likely carried for years. Her work goes beyond surface-level bodywork. It feels thoughtful, skilled, and deeply attuned. I'm so grateful for the care she provides and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for truly integrative bodywork. read more

Focuses on your areas of need. Very mindful. Knowledgeable. Highly recommend. Nice office with plenty of parking. The room is very comfortable. read more

Akasha is fabulous! I Iinitially went to address a long standing issue with plantar fasciitis. My first contact was with her website. It was so transparent about the process,and the cost, that it was easy to evaluate if it was what I was looking for. I went through her 11-week program, and in addition to helping with my foot, it has changed my posture and how I carry myself, to the point that people have commented on it. I had never done any type of massage other than Swedish, and this is NOT that! But it is so worth the results and Akasha is very attune to adjusting pressure based on the client's responses. I now go monthly and I would highly recommend Akasha. read more

I went to Akasha for an introduction to some techniques to help find a way through some emotional blocks that have been hampering my progress towards certain goals. I met her in her office--a very peaceful and pleasant space that made it easy to let go of my surroundings and turn my focus inward. Akasha asked all the right questions, and gently led me through some frameworks and techniques that I can use on my own to explore new ways of relating to old trauma. While the techniques are general, her treatment was specific and personal, and even after one session, I felt my relationship to these old patterns shift. Akasha has a good touch, and knows how to invite change in a way that feels safe, and fertile. Every journey is different, but so far Akasha feels like a skilled and intuitive guide! read more

Akasha is a multi-talented, seasoned provider of relief and care. Her hands-on work is deeply informed by her intuition combined with the deep knowledge that can only be accrued by listening intently to many bodies over the course of time. As a healer overall she pulls from many modalities and experiential dedication to growth and healing for all, on all levels. She recently suggested some spiritual/energetic work related to my need to process some grief and held open hearted space for that so graciously I was able to shift my entire frame of a really intense situation. read more

Akasha is very good at what she does. Her massage is very attuned and skillful. The level of care she provides to her clients goes above and beyond what I would expect from massage therapist. The attention to detail Is very high. You can expect a rejuvenating and effective treatment. I highly recommend the services provided here. read more

I have been seeing Akasha as a massage therapist for a few months now and it has been wonderful. I have a fair amount of aches and pains all over my body (knee, ankle, and back problems), and I always leave Akasha's massage sessions feeling some relief. I leave in a better mental place as well, as our conversations are always calming and healing. The space is warm and welcoming with a comfortable temperature. The office is convenient to get to (close to the freeway) but without any noise from the outside. I also enjoy the playlists that Akasha puts on during the sessions - they're the right vibe to relax my body and mind. The setting is perfect for helping me get comfortable and transition from my sometimes chaotic life into the healing space. During the sessions, Akasha is attentive and responsive to my needs. She is great at diagnosing and working on the mental and physical sources of my pain. She has helped me explore ways to live healthier and happier through the conversations we have. I couldn't be happier going to Akasha as a massage therapist, and I've gotten a lot more out of it than I had expected. read more

I've been getting bodywork for 30 years now and am very picky about practitioners. Akasha is fantastic! Her 11-session structural integration series was incredible at creating space within my body and so good at loosening up and adjusting my posture that I was actually taller at my annual physical this year. She has a warm, welcoming personality and I cannot recommend her highly enough. I've continued to see her for bodywork and she's contributed to faster recovery after weight training and intense multi-day treks. read more

Akasha is the most intuitive healer that provides immediate relief and long term benefits. I have been under her care for 10 years + and only have good things to say! She has a deep awareness of muscular infrastructure as well as the connective tissue. Her office is cozy and peaceful, scheduling is a breeze and there's ample parking! read more

I have been struggling with back pain since my early twenties (I'm in my 50s now). Over the years, my whole body has tightened so much that I could foresee that my mobility would no doubt be impacted at some point. I recently connected with Akasha and over the course of full series of structural integration sessions, she has helped me find space in my body. She is very intuitive and at one point in our series, she stopped, and we both knew that something wasn't working. We discussed my body and realized that we needed to change course slightly to accommodate how incredibly tight my body was. I loved this interaction as it changed the course of the rest of the sessions, and I felt like Akasha and I forged a partnership allowing me to feel very engaged in my healing process. Akasha also turned me on to breathing practice that has been very helpful. As with many things in life, there is not a one stop shop anywhere, but I am incredibly grateful to have found Akasha and intend to have her and her practice as part of my regular practice of taking care of my body. She also plays the best music and I often find myself going into an extreme state of relaxation. I can't put my finger on it - but it is all about Akasha's work and the lovely space in which she works. She is phenomenal! read more

Background: I have exertion intolerance from CFS/ME. Back in my days of vigorous exercise, I sought out the true tough-guy massage treatments, e.g. shiatsu... no pain, no gain, right? But these days, my body reacts badly to really intense body work. So when I found Akasha's site and was browsing the list of her services, I instinctively clicked on "The Gentle Session." I wasn't sure what to expect, but it sounded like the total opposite to what I would normally have picked ("Bring The Pain") so I took a chance on it. You should too. Just do it. Don't ask me to explain how it works, but this experience is a level of deep relaxation that can hardly be matched. Just specific positional holds with barely the weight of your body doing the work. I have returned regularly. The sessions, and Akasha's guidance and wisdom for life outside of the sessions, have had a cumulative effect in reducing my stress, and have become a key ingredient in my quest to recover. read more

Akasha is a truly wonderful structural integrationist and massage therapist - I can't recommend her enough! I'm a distance runner, and I really appreciate how Akasha can identify and address the root cause of my muscle tension at every session. I've also noticed a big improvement in my overall mobility and running performance since I started seeing her about a year and a half ago. Thank you for everything that you do, Akasha! read more

I am a chiropractor and body worker and Akasha is my go-to therapist. Skilled hands, deep understanding and a bedside manner that inspires trust and ease. Her office is soft, beautiful, light-filled and oxygen-rich. Akasha is the Sanskrit word for space and that is exactly what she holds for her clients: a quality of open spaciousness that encourages healing and self unfolding. Highly recommended. read more

Each and every visit felt like a soul journey. I came in as one person and left as an evolved version of myself. I deeply appreciate the care and empathy I receive from our work together. I learned so much about myself and continue to have gratitude to you. read more

I have really enjoy my sessions with Akasha! I feel she is really considerate of how my work and day to day activities affect my body and energy. She is also a very kind person who genuinely cares about her clients' wellbeing. read more

Akasha is terrific. Her incredible skill at structural integration and deep tissue massage is made even more powerful by her calming presence and her ability to diagnose emotional and mental sources of physical pain. I can't recommend her highly enough. read more

I've not only found an exceptional practitioner in Akasha, but also a life coach, therapist and overall amazing human being. I could go on and on about her masterful hands, or intuitive touch, but then I'd just be echoing other reviews on Akasha. Instead, I'd like to highlight how much she does for me that exceeds my expectations of a bodyworker. Akasha sends me texts to check-in on my pain levels, meditation resources during her downtime, podcasts episodes that I'd find helpful, and light banter to show she cares about me as more than a paying customer. The term "bodyworker" doesn't even scratch the surface of what Akasha means to me. She's the glue that holds me together. read more

Serious body work. I did a course of structural integration, and my body shed its joint pain. Akasha is professional and attentive. She has many specialities, her office is light-filled and vibrant. read more

Akasha has worked on my upper body for 3.5 months. I have become more flexible and less tight for the first time in my life as she has helped me release many years of muscle tension. I move freely now, and I feel much healthier as a result. Her professional backround is fundamental, wide and extremely well informed. During the first session I knew she was gently exploring my needs but also developing a plan and approach for further work. This was a new experience for me, and I feel so grateful to be in her care! Akasha is a skilled therapist and really understands the body! read more

I sought out an experienced "Rolfer" and I was so lucky to find Akasha. I've had horrible TMJ most of my life as well as injuries from car accident. I did the package of 12 and it changed my life. I cannot recommend Akasha enough. Akasha is a healer. read more

I have been see Akasha for almost two years now. I came because I was having severe neck pain among other issues. I find Akasha's work to be intuitive with good skill/technique. She is gentle yet firm. I find that I can reliably count on her to effectively aid in my pain relief. Akasha and I have a good rapport I really enjoy our time together. She is an invaluable asset in my self care routine and a great gift to myself. Do yourself a favor and check her out! read more

Nobody can really prepare you for how changed your body can be after pregnancy and giving birth and how difficult it can be to find your new normal. I was really struggling to find relief from lingering discomfort and pain from both the pregnancy and birth but also the postpartum period and breast feeding. I did the 10 week structural integration (rolfing) series with Akasha and found it to be a game changer. Not only did it resolve my lingering physical discomfort but it also opened up and released feelings that I hadn't realized I'd been carrying. Not only from the pregnancy and postpartum period but old trauma that I didn't know was there. Akasha made me feel very safe not only in my body but with my feelings as well. It's hard to put into words just how deep and changing the work we did together is but I will say it was a transformative I will continue to see her on an ongoing basis for maintenance. read more

What a wonderful, compassionate Healer...I can't recommend her services enough. She was so understanding and accommodating when I was going through a difficult time. I'm going to be spreading the word to anyone who will listen that this is the place to go to feel better!! read more

Akasha is exceptional. I met Akasha at the referral of my physical therapist. I am an aging athlete with a history of orthopedic injuries common to skiers and rock climbers. I was immediately comfortable with her approach to bodywork and soon became impressed with her knowledge of the practice. Over the course of six months, I received twice monthly treatments. The results have been evident: proprioception and flexibility improved, and chronic pain reduced. Thank you, Akasha, for your transformative touch! P.S. The new office is even more serene than the last one. read more

Akasha is amazing. I struggle with TMJ, stress headaches, and neck pain, but since working with her I feel so much better. She is very skilled, and I appreciate the deep massage to reduce pain. Her presence is so inviting and calming. She really cares about your well-being. Her office is also beautiful and serene. I can't recommend her enough! read more

Akasha is truly the best! Not sure why it took me so long to write this review, but I honestly walk out of every session feeling like a brand new person. I started seeing her about a year ago because I had really awful consistent shoulder/neck/back pain. I have gotten normal massages in the past (from other places) and they do not compare to the amazing bodywork that Akasha does. Not only is she professional, kind, and knowledgable but she is also super empathetic and intuitive. She provides such a calming and accepting space for both your mind and body, which is so rare to find. Thank you, Akasha, for everything that you do! read more

I have been seeing Akasha for TMJ and neck issues for a couple of months now. I had been having chronic tension and pain for almost a year and was not having much success with prior massage and PT. I got almost immediate relief after one visit and things have gotten progressively better. She is very skilled at what she does and a good listener. I had a lot of emotional tension in my jaw and neck that her techniques have helped release and that has made a big difference. I am very happy I found someone as experienced and understanding as Akasha. I highly recommend her! read more

I did a 10-session rolfing series (structural integration) with Akasha. She is extremely gifted, knowledgable, strong, and has a very sweet and safe energy to her. I appreciate how she weaves in her mastery across several different healing modalities to holistically hold her clients. Her studio is beautiful and relaxing. I have definitely noticed a positive shift in my posture and pain patterns since working with her. She has my highest recommendation! read more

Akasha is a wonderful somatic healer that helps you get into your body to heal old patterns and to charter a new future. She developed a structured, effective approach to dig into different aspects of life and offers many resources and exercises to help release stress, and develop a deeper connection to the body. Akasha exposed me to many valuable tools to cultivate an ongoing sense of well-being. Every session is documents with extensive notes and includes exercise to integrate into everyday routines. Her techniques helped me feel more grounded, centered, and empowered to navigate life's challenges. read more

I had a great first session with Akasha a few weeks ago. She's very talented and pleasant. Her space if beautiful and clean. I'm looking forward to starting my 10 series with her this week! read more

Clearly highly trained and knowledgeable, her treatments get results. The series is worth it if you're looking for bodily Input to encourage or enhance healing or re-aligning muscle/tendons & energy flows along their lines. read more

Akasha Christy saved my body!! I am a very tense person with insanely tight muscles. Regular massage doesn't even break the surface. But Akasha Christy was my godsend. She is professional, polite, punctual, and very knowledgeable. I have been seeing her for almost a year and have definitely noticed a difference is my muscles and the overall way I carry myself. I finally have gotten some relief in my body and it frees dynamite. I look forward to each appointment because I know that I am going to be taken care of. Five Stars hands down. She is a miracle worker and an amazing person too. Thank you Akasha!!! read more

I signed up for a 12-session Rolfing sequence with Akasha as part of an inner development program I was taking. She had been referred to me as a competent practitioner through my wife's orthopedic doctor. Did not know what to expect, but without exaggeration, it was truly a life-changing experience. After this work with Akasha, my standing posture noticeably improved, my walking became more natural (and more mindful). Akasha rolls with the flow. Though she never did, Akasha could work equally well blindfolded. She knows her way around human anatomy and her touch leaves things better off, everywhere it goes. So, I highly recommend others to consider working with Akasha. read more

Akasha is a truly gifted healer. I began work with Akasha while navigating a complex health issue. When not traveling, I have seen her on average twice a month for some time now. Her bodywork is incredible - she is so amazingly talented. I also need to add that my sessions with her have gone beyond body work - she has introduced me to an array of writers, healers, thinkers, etc. through various podcasts she plays during our sessions. She is so smart and I have learned so much. I always look forward to our sessions - they are both physical and emotional healing journeys. read more

Akasha has been a miracle! I have been seeing her for nearly 7+ months of my pregnancy for regular bodywork and massage sessions, almost every week. This is my second pregnancy and I swear it has made all the difference in keeping my body feeling aligned and comfortable. And beyond pain relief, Akasha has made every session an extra special space for me to relax and find some peace. I cannot wait until I can start a proper structural integration series postpartum. Would recommend her to anyone: athletes, pregnant people, people suffering from chronic pain, and everyone in between! read more

Wow. Where do I even begin? I have been going to Akasha for bodywork for about ten years now, and she's definitely my go-to person. Over the years, I've come to her for specific body pains (usually neck and back) or simply deep relaxation. From the moment I step into her massage room, I know I'm in good hands. She is able to work with the nuances of every muscle I have while finding the perfect balance of pressure, holding, and movement. I also appreciate the fact that while she's available for conversation, she also intuitively has a sense of when to create a warm and spacious silence for me to surrender into. In that way, I find my body and mind relax even more. In short, I recommend Akasha with the highest praise. read more

Akasha is a wonderful massage therapist! I have EDS (Ehlers Danlos) and sometimes finding massage therapists who can work with my body is hard, but working with Akasha has been lovely. She is very skilled in her craft & knows multiple techniques, and her office is beautiful and very soothing. She was also able to point me in the direction of some wonderful emotional regulation techniques which have really helped me. Definitely would recommend! read more

Thank you Akasha! - You were able to focus on my trouble areas and release a world of tension! The 10 week therapeutic message session really worked on one area at a time. I had been avoiding the pain my legs for years, but she encouraged me to work through my trouble area. Releasing the tension in my legs helped eliminate my back pain and improved my yoga flexibility. read more

She gives intense, thoughtful bodywork, and is great at communication​​ with me about my needs, her intentions, and the results. I have seen her at her lovely studio and also in my own home. I am doing the Ten Series with Akasha and it is great- it addresses the entire body and feels very effective. Highly​ recommended​! read more

Akasha is a really great massage therapist who has a holistic approach to massage therapy. She has helped me manage a lot of the chronic pain issues I have been experiencing during the pandemic (owning to long hours spent in front of the computer in a subpar ergo setting). She is also really personable and has a great perspective on life. read more
