What clients say
"Literally the best massage I've ever had. If you are looking at this review stop what you're doing, text Mariah, don't even look at the price cause it doesn't matter, it's worth it."
"I'm a client for life after just one appointment and I live over 2 hours away."
"Her Ashiatsu work is incredible. As a chiropractor… I have worked with dozens of therapists. Nothing, and I do mean nothing, has compared to her work."

Meet Mariah
I trained in therapeutic medical massage for deep pain and injury at Advanced Massage Therapeutics. I've worked alongside a local chiropractor and with Racing Louisville, and now I run my own practice in Clifton.
My hybrid approach works scar tissue with traction, slow pressure and heat so your fascia can move freely again. My goal is simple: help you get back to daily life with less pain, or none.
As a 200-hour yoga teacher, I'll also show you where you need strength and mobility, and how to breathe and slow down so your body can respond safely.

It shouldn't. The foot spreads pressure over a much wider area than an elbow or thumb, so deep work feels slow and heavy rather than sharp. You control the depth and can ask for less at any time.
A 90-minute Therapeutic Ashi-Hybrid gives me time to assess you and blend barefoot and hands-on work. If you'd rather stay clothed, start with Table Thai.
For Ashiatsu and therapeutic sessions you undress to your comfort level and are draped with a sheet throughout. For Table Thai, wear comfortable clothes you can stretch in, like leggings or sweats and a t-shirt.
Not always. Pregnancy, recent surgery or injury, osteoporosis, blood thinners, recent implants and some heart and vascular conditions need a different approach or a physician's clearance. List everything on your intake and I'll tailor the session to you. See the full list.
