I am Debra Barbarick and if you're looking for a professional massage therapy in the Auburn, California area, you've come to the right place. I practice advanced mind-body based massage therapy, bodywork therapy, and movement therapy modalities. My work is especially helpful to people suffering from physical and emotional pain coming from injury, surgery, repetitive motion strain, grief and chronic illness.
As a mind-body therapist, I apply postural analysis and careful assessment to help identify physical and emotional patterns that may underlie pain and distress and design sessions to meet your individual needs. My gift is to carefully listen and provide an appropriate treatment plan giving insight and tools to help relieve symptoms, promote healing, and support wellness, relaxation and pain relief.

Services
I am a graduate of the Massage Therapy Institute in Davis, California. I have over 1,000 hours of training and focus on Medical Massage, Cranial Sacral Therapy, and Movement Therapy. I am also trained in Energy Medicine and graduated from the school Energy Dynamics of the Psyche in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Your session will focus on Wellness, Relaxation, and Pain Relief and will draw from a variety of therapies depending on your needs. Medical Massage differs from regular Massage and Bodywork in that the treatment is specifically directed to resolve conditions diagnosed by a medical doctor. I may use a variety of modalities or techniques during the treatment, but I focus the treatment only on the specific areas of the body related to the diagnosis.

Over the years I have experienced countless massages from numerous providers. Debra brings a quality to her work that surpasses all. She took the time to know her client and understand my unique needs. She is thorough and knowledgeable and inspires confidence. Her intuitive, 'healing hands' are a gift and a blessing Thank you, Debra !

Debra is such an amazing massage therapist! She has truly improved my quality of life. I started seeing her last year. I suffer from back spasms, tension headaches, sciatic and inflammation. When I first came to see Debra I was in so much pain I couldn't even raise my arms over my head and I am in my mid 30s. Her vast knowledge of the body and her numerous techniques have given me back my life and allow me to really enjoy being a Mom to me 20 month old Daughter. I recommend her to everyone! Do yourself a favor and go THE BEST therapist in California if not the country.
