I’m Natalie, the founder of Ascension Massage Therapy, and my passion is helping people rise above pain, stress, and overwhelm to feel at home in their bodies again. Because here’s the truth: pain isn’t just physical—it’s emotional, mental, and often tied to the weight of everyday life. And nobody should have to “just get on with it.”

My journey into clinical massage has been shaped by a deep curiosity about the connection between body and mind. With training in advanced clinical massage, trauma-informed care, and somatic release rooted in polyvagal theory, I’ve developed an approach that goes far beyond easing sore muscles. I work with people living with chronic pain linked to stress and mental health, empowering them to calm their nervous system, restore movement, and rediscover resilience.

I also have a heart for families. Teaching parents safe, nurturing massage techniques to support themselves and their children—especially those who are neurodivergent or navigating extra challenges—has become one of the most rewarding parts of my work. It’s not just about easing tension; it’s about building connection, confidence, and moments of calm at home.

No two sessions look alike. Some days it’s precise clinical work to unravel musculoskeletal pain; other days it’s guided breath, self-massage, or mindful movement. Whether you see me in person or online, you’ll leave not only with relief, but with tools to carry into your everyday life.

Ascension Massage Therapy was created to be more than a treatment room. It’s a space where healing, learning, and empowerment meet—a place where you can reset, rebuild, and rise.
