Enjoy luxurious hands-on assists as your therapist guides you through a series of restorative stretches tailored to your body's unique flexibility, stability, and mobility needs. Narrative Medicine, an interdisciplinary practice where wellness meets the arts, reveals the psychosocial dimensions of pain and illuminates the stories at the heart of healing.
A meditative bodywork session that allows cerebrospinal fluid to move with more ease, symmetry, and vibrancy. Slipstream cupping uses negative pressure to release adhesions, target blood flow, smooth cellulite, and manage pain. I strained something in my shoulder/neck last weekend and it continuously got worse each day.

I've been seeing Larissa for 90 minute massages twice a month for a few months now and there is no comparison for how amazing she is. She has a calm, peaceful demeanor, but don't let that fool you into thinking she can't get into your body and work out deeply held tension patterns. She utilizes a variety of stretching, deep, and Thai massage that are opening up my body in ways that nobody else has been able to. Make no mistake, this is not easy work. This is for unlocking long held tension and takes commitment and trust. If you want to heal your body on a foundational/functional

Came on back...
Saw the owner. Her hands are quite magical....and she's not afraid of deep neck work (so many are) and I slept all through the night--not waking up to neck pain...this was WONDERFUL.
I appreciate that she reached out and offered to make up for my poor experience the other day with that fella (I still cant remember his name) and will come back to her specifically for the neck (which troubles me often)
Thank you again!!!

I got a 90 minute massage from Wendi because I have been feeling stressed and it was exactly what I needed to relax! I have lower back pain and have been seeing a chiropractor, but I should have just come here first because I felt so much relief quicker than what the adjustments were giving me. I also really loved that she took late appointments. I had the best night sleep due to getting a massage a few hours before bedtime. I will be back.

From the moment you step in there is this immediate evaporation of stress and tension. I literally sighed as I walked in and was welcomed by the amazing souls here. Such good energy and felt healed and restored at the end of my treatments. So grateful! Definitely making this place my go-to for my next self care day.

I am SO GLAD to have found this place! I just had a thai yoga massage with Maryam and it was so delightful! The pressure was deep in all the right places, she helped with my tightest places and did some beautiful gentle stretching that felt AMAZING!! I get a lot of massage and could really tell that she knew what she was doing!
Also, the studio is beautiful! So clean and decorated beautifully. The temperature was cool (which most people like but I get really cold) so they brought me the perfect blanket to keep me cozy while she worked.
I will definitely be back next time I'm in town

I just received an excellent session from Maryam! She gave a very good deep tissue, structural realignment and focused triggered point release kind of treatment. She was detailed and paid close attention to detail. If been a bodyworker/massage therapist for 15 years and have had many massages and Maryam is in the top for sure! Julia was also very kind on the phone answering questions as well. Space in clean and inviting.
Thanks again!
I'll see you next time I'm in Austin

I am still floating from my awesome experience with Maryam I don't enjoy hard massages and have found most past experiences painful and unenjoyable. However, I now feel enlightened and optimistic that I have found someone who can deliver a soft yet powerful massage I would 10/10 recommend and plan to go again asap!

My shoulder has been hurting for two months before I decided to do something about it. It felt maybe it's only a pulled muscle and slept on it wrong, however it did not go away.
....until I found Natasha. She worked on my shoulder and it felt better right after. Her after care advise is spot on, too. Apparently, I'm out of shape. I'm now pain-free, thanks to Natasha!!

I feel like I hit the jackpot finding Natasha. Ive been very ill over the last 5-6 months and have not been able to move or exercise the way I need to in order to feel like myself. My body has lost so much mobility and twisted me up in chronic pain. Natasha took her time to recognize the biggest sources causing imbalance. I feel like my puzzle pieces are sorted and more like a human than a frozen zombie. I'm so excited to continue this journey with Natasha to reclaim my healthy body. Absolutely couldn't recommend her more!

Today was a weird day and my back was hurting so bad. I was trying to find a good place to get a massage. I knew it was a long shot because most places were booked up. I've been friends with Julia for years. I gave her a call and was able to get in with Maryam today! She was amazing! I've had a lot of massages. This was a specific tailored massage to my needs. She looked at my body alignment and gave me exactly what I needed. My favorite part was when I was on my side and she was working on the side of my torso into my hip. I've never had that before and it felt amazing. If you want

The Rise School of Austin is a truly magical place. The staff are not only well educated, but so passionate about teaching their students in a way that is meaningful to each child, regardless of ability. Rise teaches reading, writing, math, technology and self -awareness along with speech, music and motor skills therapies. With three playgrounds and a one of a kind gym, The Rise School far surpasses all others in early childhood education.

This has been the best decision I have made for my son. He has attended The Rise School for four years, and the teachers and staff have truly set him up for success in kindergarten (and beyond). The amount of thoughtfulness that goes into every day makes such an impact on all aspects of his development! The teachers truly see my son as a person, and care about him deeply.

We had two children attend Rise. One who is severely differentlyabled and uses a wheel chair and one who was typically developing. It was a 3 hour daily round trip drive for our family and was the best decision we could have made. It made a shocking difference for our typically developing child. She loved feeling the sense of leadership and for the first time really felt special without all of the focus being on her differentlyabled brother. She had greater compassion for the other special needs students and the curriculum was outstanding. It made for an easy transition into kindergarten.
