Hi there! Nice to meet you :)
I'm Dakota, I am a Licensed Massage Therapist, Reiki Practitioner and Personal Trainer based out of beautiful Schnecksville, Pennsylvania. I specialize in deeply therapeutic sessions that target both physical and emotional blockages and trauma.
My goal with my practice is to provide a pathway for my clients to a life of fulfillment and longevity. After receiving my first reiki session in 2013, I experienced first hand the transformative power of energy work. I immediately enrolled to become a Reiki Practitioner myself and have since achieved Mastery Level. Wanting to expand my knowledge, skillset and ability to help others, I decided to go to school for Massage Therapy. I received my Massage Therapy license in 2015 after graduating from McCann School of Business and Technology. While Reiki and Massage Therapy changed the way I viewed health and wellness, my mindset shifted even further after working alongside of a Holistic Doctor of Chiropractic.
From 2018-2020 I watched as patient after patient overcame physical challenges, came off of prescription medication, broke mental barriers, and achieved goals they were told they would never be able to reach. My views on medicine and healthcare were completely shattered. Going through these life changing monuments has shifted my mindset from healthcare being something you utilize after becoming ill, to taking preventative measures to get your mind and body into a state of ease. Through Reiki and Massage Therapy I help to instill this mindset shift onto others. I plan to continue my education to help my clients break down barriers keeping them stuck and achieve limits they never knew were possible.
Services
Muscle Therapy and Reiki sessions are offered in 30, 60, 90, and 120 minute increments . New to Reiki? Make a quick stop to my Reiki Page for more information! Schedule your appointment online below or call to get your appointment set up. I realize every client has a different goal in mind, we will work together and discuss the treatment type best suited for you :)
A 30 minute session is best suited for relaxation. Take some time to unwind and relax- The moment you get onto the table you will feel your stresses and worries start to dissipate. 30 minute sessions are typically spent Swedish style with slow gentle strokes leaving the body feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. You may however opt for a therapeutic 30 minute session spent on one localized problem area.
A 60 minute session is wonderful if you are suffering from overall body aches and pains or if you are looking for a deep relaxation session. This type of massage is typically a combination of relaxation and relief. However, you can choose a total relaxation session which will have your tension melting away and your stresses and worries along with it!
A 90 minute session is great to eradicate tension in a problem area. 90 minutes of muscle therapy will have your body relaxed allowing for work on the deeper muscles causing pain and restricting movement. This would be equivalent to a deep tissue massage with a revitalizing twist. I work slow and with your body to locate the source of tension you are experiencing. This will allow you to relax , your body to trust my hands and your tension to slip away. This is the best recommended session for problem area work. Although, you absolutely can choose 90 minutes of relaxation to completely refresh and rejuvenate your mind, body and spirit.
