Parker is phenomenal! I have been consistently going to her for massage for over two years now (prenatal and postnatal). Not only is each individual experience so relaxing, comfortable, and highly anticipated but the work Parker has done has increased overall wellness to my body on a regular basis. Parker is attentive, considerate, knowledgeable, and just darn good at what she does! I highly recommend her to all.

I have been looking for a masseuse for several years. I had been searching for someone who could integrate therapeutic massage with a restorative and relaxing experience. Lyra is the perfect person. She is thoughtful and an excellent listener. I had a difficult postpartum recovery and Parker played a huge role in getting me back to my best self. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for an empathetic listener and talented masseuse.

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, QualityI cannot say enough about great things about Parker! I have been seeing her for about two years for general relaxation massages, chronic lower back pain and most recently prenatal massages. One of my favorite things about Parker is that she takes time to check in about overall health and wellness in order to fulfill your expectations. By the end of the massage, I’m always feeling so relaxed. She also tells me things to be aware of (the way I’m sitting or standing or things to change based on the areas of tension Parker discovered). There is so much value in her massage therapy – I highly recommend her if you are looking for a practitioner that cares about her clients and is so knowledgeable about overall wellness!I cannot say enough about great things about Parker!

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, QualityI have been getting monthly massages for a few years now to help deal with issues that have arisen from my job. I started seeing Parker about a year ago, and she has improved my quality of life tremendously!During our consults before each appointment, Parker takes the time to break down what she’ll be doing that session to address my specific issues. While providing phenomenal massage therapy that helped alleviate specific issues, she also provided insight into stretches, breathing practices, etc. that have helped keep these issues in check and prevent them from getting worse between each session. I can’t recommend Parker enough!I have been getting monthly massages for a few years now to help deal with issues that have arisen from my job.

Parker is MAGIC! She’s the only person I’ll go to for a massage. Her compassion and empathy is incredible. She always takes the time to listen and REALLY hear you. She not only gives the best massage every single time but gives good advice and suggestions for a healthier you. I refer to her to everyone I know. She’s also just a lovely human being.

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, QualityI have been seeing Parker for a couple of years. She has always delivered a great experience. Her knowledge of the body has significantly helped when I have had specific problem areas that needed to be addressed. I have never received a massage with the level of care that Parker provides.

Parker is awesome! I started seeing her for prenatal massage and at the first appointment it was obvious she had not only so much knowledge to share but a healing touch too. I always feel relaxed after our sessions and she gives me great advice on what to do at home to continue feeling good. Very glad she was recommended to me!

Parker is a true healer who is passionate about health and wellness! It shows in her work, you will leave feeling refreshed, relaxed and heard : ) Parker is such a bright light and her knowledge of the reproductive system is vast. I would recommend Parker to anyone looking for a warm and compassionate massage therapist. So much gratitude to Parker!

I’ve had many different massage therapists, I don’t feel like I need to look any further than Parker. I have been receiving arvigo/visceral massage from Parker for 3 months. She has been the most knowledgeable and trauma informed massage therapist. Not only have I found physical relief, but together we have discovered the root of my physical pain and tension. For me, massage can really activate my nervous system and Parker is also very knowledgeable about calming the nervous system. Arvigo massage is an experience that has been both unbelievably calming and intensely nurturing—while still feeling like I’m making progress. The impact of the massage lasts long after I get off of the table. I have increased my body awareness and ability to calm myself. Thanks Parker!
