Caitlin completed a 600 hour Massage Therapy Certification at American Institute of Massage in 2012. After graduating she worked in a Chiropractic Clinic cultivating her Medical Massage techniques, helping patients alleviate chronic pain, restricted mobility and assist in their rehabilitation. During this time she completed a 200 hour Karuna Yoga certification. Realizing the root of "dis-ease" is not just skin deep, Caitlin started looking for other natural paths to medicine. For the better part of 2014, she studied under Shaman Maryvel Guardino learning a Celestial form of Shamanic Healing for the mind, body and spirit. Continuing along the path of energy work, in 2016 & 2017 Caitlin studied under Master Teacher Rachel Kloiber at Divine Spark to become an Usui Holy Fire Reiki Master. Also in 2017, Caitlin completed 120 hours of Thai Massage training with Niss Bach in Guatemala. She enjoys spending time outdoors with her dogs, practicing yoga and discovering new places abroad.
Maya received her massage therapy license after graduating from American Spirit Institute in March 2020. She then received her Thai Massage certificate in 2021 to broaden her practice, as well as receiving her Reiki Holy Fire 1 & 2 placements in March of 2022. Her curiosity about the mind-body connection and overall health was inspired by her personal journey to wellness from having Lyme disease. Through her physical and mental health journey, she has found purpose in healing others as well as herself. Her goal is to facilitate body awareness and relaxation through therapeutic touch and customized massage techniques. Her personal experience with anxiety and background working in the restaurant industry has inspired her to gear her massage practice towards relaxation, using medium-firm pressure. Her specialties include Swedish massage, Therapeutic Massage, cupping therapy, Reiki, prenatal massage, myofascial release, and Thai massage. In her spare time, she enjoys hiking, camping, cooking, traveling, and listening to music and podcasts.
