SLEEP

Plagued with sleep issues since she was young, Rebekah began exploring holistic ways to improve sleep when an incident in 2014 reactivated her childhood sleep anxiety.

As an experienced massage therapist and wellness practitioner, she knew that there must be a connection between lifestyle, massage, and sleep. She began researching sleep in earnest and trained as a certified sleep science coach with the Spencer Institute. She is currently studying to become a sleep technician with the American Academy of Sleep Medicine to deepen her understanding of sleep science.

Massage began as a personal journey after a difficult period during her early twenties. The desire to heal herself morphed into a desire to help initiate healing in others. Rebekah brings over 25 years of massage and meditation experience to the table.
