Mandy Rivella

Mandy Rivella, LMT
From an early age, Mandy had an innate ability to tune into others and their needs. A curious child with a passion for holistic healing, Mandy always felt the happiest among plants, animals and nature. She soon learned to trust her intuition as it served her well. As she grew older, Mandy continued to help others in the role of a spiritual counselor, which ultimately led to the career path of massage. As a licensed massage therapist and reiki master, Mandy is passionate about her profession, and extremely grateful to have found her vocation. Mandy enjoys working with clients looking for specific results, and employs a unique variety of modalities tailored to her clients' needs. Mandy loves teaching her clients that therapeutic work and deep tissue don't need to be painful to achieve results because an effective massage is about working with the client's body rather than fighting against it. She does this by intently listening to clients, working to their comfort levels and using modalities such as therapeutic massage, myofascial release and trigger point therapy blended with Reiki to relax their parasympathetic nervous systems. Mandy loves having such a wide variety of options to help others, and is excited to continue to learn new modalities to enhance her bodywork skills and help more and more clients. |
