Katie Ochoa -Owner/Massage Therapist

My Specialities-

I specialize in providing relief to individuals grappling with chronic and acute pain. With a wealth of experience in medical massage, particularly for post-injury and post-surgery scenarios, I am dedicated to aiding clients who may have been let down by conventional medical avenues. 

My passion lies in helping individuals surpass the limitations imposed upon them by their conditions.

Things About Me-

I love to read! But due to a busy life with my husband, daughter and work I’ve learned to embrace audible books and podcasts. I often foster baby kittens that need to be bottle fed. 

Who I work Best With

I work best with clients who appreciate deeper pressure and massage modalities that can often be intense. Understanding that the journey to healing may involve discomfort, my ideal clients are committed to the process, recognizing that consistent sessions are essential for working through scar tissue, muscle adhesions, and a history of injuries.

Live Well NMT

Specialties – Cupping, Prenatal/Postpartum, Stretching

About Me – I am a Certified Advanced Neuromuscular Massage Therapist. (NMT) I believe that a massage should be therapeutic as well as relaxing. Thats why, as a NMT, I have skills to assess and address each person’s individual needs while maintaining comfort and relaxation.

The work I do is described as slow and intentional. It is done by manipulating muscle fibers at the neuromuscular junction with appropriate techniques needed to treat hyper irritable areas that cause weakness, muscular imbalances, and limited range of motion (ROM). My goal is to provide a massage that stands out differently than most by validating my clients needs and educating them. Massage gives me that opportunity to serve others the way Jesus did and to validate each person’s needs.

Who I work best with

My ideal client is someone who has a desire to learn about how my work affects them and listens to any recommendations they are offered. I appreciate those who ask questions and who are open to listening.

We look forward to seeing you!
