My experience receiving Shiatsu from Rita was immensely positive. Rita brings a presence to her work that creates a safe, nurturing and supportive space for true healing. I have come away from these sessions feeling deeply replenished and balanced. Rita also worked with my 10 year old daughter when she was healing from an injury and I was really impressed with the gentle yet thorough support she brought to that treatment as well. Our family has been so fortunate to access the beautiful care that Rita offers. I highly recommend her work!

Rita is an amazing massage therapist, healer, and body worker! I would suggest her to all my friends. I have been her client for 2 years and my body is always relaxed after my sessions and her healing touch helps to relieve emotional and physical stress that I carry.

Sarah N.

Wonderful! Rita is a special therapist. I have received numerous treatments from her, and she is a gentle and compassionate healer. I would recommend her Shiatsu work to any and everyone. Shiatsu is much more gentle than a typical massage, so you shouldn't expect deep tissue or Thai massage from her. But her work leaves you feeling whole and happy and healthy, and above all, super relaxed.
