ARIA CARDWELL
NC LMBT #20069
As a licensed massage therapist since February 2022, I specialize in providing therapeutic massage and bodywork characterized by slow, intentional movements and medium-firm pressure.
My practice prioritizes creating a serene and calming environment where clients can unwind from the demands of daily life.
​
I am passionate about offering holistic full-body massages that facilitate deep relaxation and restoration.
My approach involves dedicating ample time to each area of the body while intuitively addressing specific areas of tension or discomfort. This personalized attention ensures a uniquely tailored experience that leaves clients feeling refreshed and revitalized.

NC LMBT #20244
I grew up in Garner, NC and attended massage school at Gwinette College in Raleigh, NC from 2021-2022.
​
A career in massage really captured my interest after receiving chiropractic care and massage therapy for a repetitive use back injury that I experienced in 2020.
​
Massage was the modality that really stood out to me, my pain was relieved, and my injury resolved.
​
My approach combines the relaxing flow of Esalen style massage strokes with targeted techniques for pain relief and muscle recovery.

NC LMBT #19611
I completed my massage training at Caldwell Community College in January of 2021, a career I pursued because I’ve always appreciated how beneficial massage can be for overall human health and especially for pain management.
I’m dedicated to providing high quality treatment that’s both relaxing and productive, and strive to meet each individual clients’ specific needs - both what clients tell me about pre-treatment and also helping them to identify and address areas that may cause problems down the road. While I practice full body massage, I’m especially focused on trigger point therapy and focused pain relief for the shoulders, calves and neck. I practice cupping as well for additional muscular release without discomfort sometimes associated with deep tissue work.

BALLARD
NC LMBT #20534
I was led to the field of massage and bodywork in an effort to heal my own personal trauma. I believe my empathy and compassion for others is my God given gift.
In my massage practice, I rely on intuition and attentively adapt to the individual needs of each client. I am particularly drawn to working with those who may be new to massage or are navigating trauma, providing a safe and nurturing space for healing.
​
My expertise lies in addressing low back pain, hips, legs, feet, and prenatal massage. I am deeply committed to helping clients find relaxation, healing, and a renewed sense of well-being through the power of touch.

CHELSEY HODGE
NC LMBT #18012
A decade of experience in healthcare has instilled in me a deep appreciation for the power of touch in healing and well-being. My journey as a massage therapist began at The Center for Massage and Natural Health in Asheville, NC.
​
With nurturing yet firm hands, I intuitively guide each session, focusing on areas that need attention and providing deep relaxation. My approach seamlessly blends medium to firm pressure, with the ability to adjust to deeper pressure as needed.
​
I particularly enjoy working on the head, neck, shoulders, and feet, areas often burdened by stress and tension. Through skilled touch and a calming presence, I strive to create a sanctuary where clients can unwind, release anxieties, and experience a renewed sense of peace and well-being.

JENNY JOLLY
NC LMBT #19821
I discovered massage therapy after decades of working a full-time desk job left me with chronic neck and shoulder pain. I found massage to be an intuitive channel of
communication that allowed me to understand my own body on a deeper level.
As a licensed massage and bodywork therapist, I love that I get to continue this conversation
with my own clients. Through massage, I am able to nurture, hold, uplift, ground, and create
space for my clients to become curious about their own bodies, patterns of pain, and to discover
a path to healing.
My background in Ayurvedic bodywork and Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT) lend to my
integrative style of massage. I also enjoy incorporating modalities like stretching, cupping and
hot stones into my practice. I love to work with clients from all walks of life who are looking to
manage chronic or acute pain, to relax deeply, and/or to improve their overall wellness through therapeutic touch.

One of my greatest joys is assisting my clients in deepening the relationship with their body. Your body is your greatest tool for navigating a healthy, joyful and vibrant life. The deeper relationship and awareness you have of your body, the greater potential for a rich and fulfilling human experience.
I have been a professional massage therapist for over 10 years and have been licensed in NC, SC and CO.
My favorite clients to work with are those who have specific, acute or chronic pain and are looking for focus work on these areas to bring sustainable relief over time. I also enjoy working with clients who appreciate an intuitive massage approach, where I allow the wisdom of your body to direct the massage.

Inspired by massage's ability to alleviate anxiety, depression, and chronic pain, I embarked on my journey at the Asheville School of Yoga and Massage in 2018, becoming a licensed therapist in 2019.
​
Over the past four years, I have honed my skills in relieving injuries and chronic pain, discovering the restorative and pain-relieving modality of Thai Mat Massage. I now offer Thai Mat Massage in 60, 90, and 120-minute sessions.
​
Additionally, I offer deep tissue table massage, incorporating hot stones, cupping, and Thai-inspired joint mobility movements and my very own stretching techniques that my client's love!

From childhood I've had a strong passion toward health, wellness and caring for the physical body. Since then I have also discovered the necessity of caring for the mind and spirit. In merging these ideas I found massage and Reiki and have been licensed and certified in both since 2016.
I enjoy working on all body types, specifically those looking to unwind, reconnect, and feel better within their mind, body and spirit. I combine my knowledge with intuition to provide a custom treatment for each individual client.
