The Zen Chameleon
Chameleons symbolize adaptability, transformation, self-expression, and patience. They change color to blend in with their environment when they’re in stressful situations. When they feel relaxed, they stay as they are, unaffected by the outer world.
Like chameleons, people adapt to their surroundings - high levels of stress, overstimulation, and lack of rest cause unpleasant shifts in our bodies. Through awareness, detachment, and self-nourishment, we can retrain the body to reestablish balance and remain zen, even when our environment feels out of control.
Our Healing Intent
My holistic healing approach focuses on the body’s natural ability to detox, restore, and rebalance. I specialize in lymphatic drainage and abdominal massage and believe the lymphatic system is the root of true nourishment and long-term vitality. My sessions support organ function, energetic release, and deep relaxation to enhance the body’s natural healing processes.
Each session is a space for whole-self healing, where physical techniques are combined with energetic awareness to reduce inflammation, bring the body back into harmony, and promote systemic balance..
I meet each client exactly where they are, honoring their unique needs and rhythms, and guiding them toward a deeper connection with their own well-being.
When we give ourselves permission to rest and receive, we honor our body and are better able to interact more peacefully with the world around us.

"I thought people were exaggerating when saying, "best massage ever!" But they're not... I think that really was the best massage I've had so far! Courtney is definitely at a different level than your regular Massage parlor practitioner. The stretching she does as part of the massage really helps address your trouble areas - for me that was the neck and back. Will be back soon!"

"Courtney has a good, gentle heart and truly wishes to help her clients. It's reflected in the time she took to talk to me about my medical issues before we started, and the way she listened (!). It's reflected in the room she performs treatments in, which is a secret little getaway filled with cozy details and warmth. And it's reflected in the quality of her treatment; I'm a difficult person to get to relax, and not only was she a good conversationalist, but her treatment was soothing as well as effective. Five stars, Courtney is fully recommended by me and I hope to go back again soon."

"As an RN working 12-hour shifts, I have become a devotee of regular massages. Since working with Courtney, the places in my back that flare up are less bothersome. She also works with my husband who has a history of shoulder injury and soreness from rock climbing. I highly recommend her as she is experienced, effective, and kind."

"I had the greatest experience with my first appointment with Courtney for a lymphatic and digestive massage. Courtney makes you feel so comfortable and knowledgeable on what to expect and was happy to answer any questions I had. She truly has a healing touch. The many benefits I've experienced even the same day and the past two weeks after my appointment have been awe inspiring. I've been telling all my friends about her services!"

"I always feel like a new person after a massage with Courtney! She caters specifically to my needs and is willing to walk my through how each process is going to help me. Even when I'm getting deeper work I always feel at ease and relaxed. As an avid massage-getter, it is by far the best massage I've ever gotten!"
