Meet the Team
Jo Elan Collins
Utilizing their advanced certification in Neuromuscular Therapy, Jo approaches each treatment as an opportunity to help the body reeducate itself. Precise, slow mobilization techniques engage tissues methodically to improve feel and function.

J.K. (Nita) Whalen
Nita offers myofascial release, soothing Swedish massage, stretching, and muscular energy techniques to address her clients' needs. She also provides certified meridian cupping and gua sha (soft tissue release) treatments to help reduce pain and feelings of disability, and to improve range and quality of motion.
Kyla Jones
Kyla encourages pathways to better health via hands-on techniques and education. Her areas of expertise include Bobath Therapy (a neuromuscular re-education technique), Manual Lymphatic Drainage, Thai Massage, and Myoskeletal Work (derived from Rolfing and Osteopathy).
MeZzo Mya Steam
MeZzo graduated from the Soma Institute of Structural Integration in 2007 but has been massaging others since elementary school. Their work builds on the innovative work of Dr. Ida P. Rolf — a technique known as "Rolfing." MeZzo strives to provide lasting results through advanced myofascial release massage that mobilizes fascia and integrates new patterns of movement. Their work is very slow and can be deep, but your muscles and breath determine the depth.
Instead of being worked on, they like to think you're being worked with. Aside from massage, their biggest loves are being immersed in nature, being inspired by music to dance in new ways, and collaborating with others in the creation process.
Pat O'Rourke
Pat's treatment approaches include injury treatment, myofascial release, structural integration, and craniosacral therapy. She teaches advanced programs in structural injury assessment, treatment, and craniosacral therapy.
Solomon Spigel
Solomon specializes in acupressure and manual therapy to treat traumas — both physical and emotional, new and old. He incorporates modern evidence-informed research alongside traditional holistic approaches. His techniques include acupressure, trigger point release, mobilizations, and gentle holds similar to myofascial release.
He can help with many issues including migraines, back pain, sleep issues, vertigo, grieving and loss, TMJ, childhood traumas, EDS symptoms, and more. In addition to massage therapy, Solomon is a furniture maker and blacksmith. He has studied many martial arts since the age of 12 and enjoys connecting to nature through primitive skills like flintknapping and hide tanning.
Acupressure uses gentle pressure to stimulate specific points on the body to help with healing and the cultivation of health. Each point has different properties, and selecting the proper ones for your current issues can have profound effects on your healing and wellness. Like acupuncture, it is based on traditional East Asian medicine dating back over 2,000 years — but with acupressure, the same points are stimulated without the use of needles.
Susan Rosen
Susan's treatment approaches include myofascial release, muscle energy technique for correction of muscle length and imbalance, as well as alignment and decompression of spinal joints and nerves. She is an instructor of advanced certification in Orthopedic Massage, including assessment and treatment of soft tissue injuries.
Please Be Aware
We respectfully request that any schedule changes — cancellation, reschedule, etc. — be communicated to the office no less than 48 hours before your scheduled appointment. It is very difficult for us to fill a therapist's openings within a 48-hour window.
Any cancellations after that window has passed, as well as anyone who does not appear for their scheduled appointment within the first 10 minutes, will be considered a "no-show" and will be subject to our $55.00 no-show fee.
We understand that life gets complicated and there are times when 48-hour notice is not feasible. In these cases, please notify us as soon as possible and our office will work with you regarding this policy.
We are currently accepting new patients. Please call our office staff at 360-459-9780 to get scheduled.
If you would like to use insurance to pay for your treatment, please be aware that a medical referral is required.
Kaiser Permanente referrals must include the full name of a massage therapist in order to bill insurance. An office associate can provide you with more information. We look forward to scheduling you soon!
