Rocksteady Therapists

Rocksteady exists to cultivate well-being for our students, ourselves, and our communities.  We generate progressive, meaningful growth. This is NOT change for change sake, and this is NOT a temporary upgrade. Well-being is a discipline.  It demands harnessing our potential, fulfilling our capacity and applying ourselves daily to the work of becoming our greatest potential as an adventure. We believe that our greatest responsibility is to be our best self, so that we can give our best to the world.   We accomplish this through excellent bodywork, distinctive movement classes, life altering private sessions, and profound wellness immersions. We foster real, caring, and down to earth relationships with everyone who walks through our doors while offering high quality at affordable prices.

I am a highly motivated and deeply passionate practitioner of movement and bodywork. I have a master certification from the Utah College of Massage Therapy and a 200-hour yoga teacher certification through the Integrated School of Yoga. I also have a red kundalini yoga certification from the Integrated School of Yoga. I have been practicing alignment and the art of well being for 15 years while diligently authenticating my language with my practical application. Through this process, I have been able to give people a clear cut path for recovery and also limitless development within their mind-body paradigm. I practice yoga and meditation daily and I strongly believe we can overcome any obstacle placed before us and recover from any injury sustained to us. I am extremely grateful to be a part of this amazing Rocksteady wellness team and community. 

I am in charge of Client Management at Rocksteady and will be assisting you during your journey with us. I can assist you in a preliminary phone call or email exchange to explain how we work, our pricing, and our method. From there, we will match you with the right treatment plan based on your needs and goals. Our practice is very busy. If you are ever having trouble scheduling online or finding appointment slots, please contact me at rocksteadybodyworks@gmail.com or at 801.277.9166. We look forward to working with you.

I have been a massage therapist for two years. I graduated from Healing Mountain Massage school in 2021. After graduation I wanted to find a way to create a deep level of healing in my bodywork. I took classes at Summit RidgeBodyworks focused on advanced myofascial techniques and infrared therapy. I specialize in myofascial, emotional body mapping, sports massage, thai yoga, and shiatsu. I love working with the meridians and fascial lines to provide deep physical and emotional healing through trauma release. I strive to facilitate a safe personalized healing space for each one of my clients. A space that they can be heard and cared for.

I am very excited to be joining the Rocksteady team and to be able to share quality bodywork with the clientele here. 

I always knew I wanted to work in the world of health and healing. Though, I never really knew in what way. Massage therapy frequently sat in the back of my mind. 

After years of trying to figure out what to do and passionless corporate jobs, I followed a whim and enrolled in the Holistic Health Practitioner program at Healing Mountain Massage School. I graduated in the Summer of 2022 and now, I absolutely love what I do. The world of holistic health has opened my mind so much and I have loved exploring avenues such as herbalism, sound healing, and reiki energy work along with several kinds of bodywork therapies.

My approach to this work is one of curiosity and wonder. I don’t believe massage has to just be either “fluff and buff” or “tough and rough”. I have received training in a high variety of technical, as well as energetic modalities and believe that the deepest healing comes from finding that perfect balance of techniques, personalized for each client. I practice intuitive touch, to listen to your bodily cues and create a unique session just for you, with each visit. I truly love this work and love seeing bodies change, reset, and come back into harmony. I'm very excited to work with the Rocksteady clientele and look forward to a continuation of learning and growth in this new career.

In summer of 2022, I made the decision to apply for Rocksteady’s full bodywork apprenticeship. This decision came from a deep curiosity and hunger for knowledge and tools to access healing, wellness, and longevity for myself and others. 

The end of my 9-year career as a professional ballet dancer was a dissolution of my whole world. It was also an opportunity for growth and to build something new. It opened a path of discovery which lead me to yoga teacher training, 10 day silent vipassana meditation practice, sound healing training, and now massage therapy. I was accepted to Rocksteady’s full bodywork apprenticeship and began training with Jessa in Fall 2022.

 Massage was an essential maintenance practice during my ballet career. The massage therapist I worked with became a trusted mentor who helped me through some big physical and mental challenges. She was an invaluable influence and support in my life. Her work inspired me to want to give that to others. My intention is to offer a safe space for people to feel held and heard. To deliver quality body work and to empower people to thrive physically, mentally, and spiritually. I’m excited and grateful for the opportunity to work with the Rocksteady team and clientele. 

I stepped foot into Rocksteady about 4 years ago and fell in love with Jessa’s practice and her vision immediately! Here I am, learning from the master herself many years later. Prior to beginning this mind body approach in learning I received my first degree in Pre Health Sciences. Fascinated in the body and how movement can significantly improve quality of life, massage therapy was the next intentional step in furthering my education. I have so much gratitude for Rocksteady and its ability to teach me what it takes to be an excellent practitioner.
