Your Massage Therapist 

​

Hello! My name is Iara (pronounced "Yara"), 

I love how massage therapy allows me to blend science with the intuitive and creative.

I care deeply about your experience and supporting your body autonomy. I believe strongly in the health benefits of regular positive touch. I want clients to know that each session is intended to be co-created with you and you are fully in control of your body at all times. 

​

I bring to you a diverse background of studies and experiences that inform the work I do with you. My training in, and love for midwifery carves out a special place in my heart for bodywork related to the perinatal year, including fertility, prenatal, labor, and the postpartum period.   

I am committed to creating a welcoming and therapeutic environment for folks from all walks of life, and welcome all ages, genders, body types, races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, religions, and abilities. 

​

I strive for you leave your sessions with less pain and tension than before. In addition, I wish for you to feel listened-to, nourished, supported, and of course, grounded. 

Feel free to reach out and see if a session with Grounded Massage & Healing Arts is a good fit for you!
