MASSAGE THERAPIST
Originally from Idaho, Hannah received her massage license in 2021 and has since dedicated her career to helping people enhance their performance and recover effectively. Her passion for massage therapy blossomed from a lifelong love of fitness, particularly through weightlifting and running.
After relocating to Portland three years ago, she’s honed her specialization in sports massage, working with professional athletes from diverse backgrounds. Her approach incorporates various techniques, including myofascial release (John F. Barnes technique) and muscle activation. She also frequently utilizes scraping, cupping, and trigger point therapy. She strives to help her clients’ bodies remember how to move without restriction and decreases compensation patterns that may hinder their performance.
In her sessions, she emphasizes education, helping clients understand the purpose behind each technique and providing them with maintenance strategies for continued improvement.
When she’s not in the treatment room, you’ll find her outdoors with her two dogs, hiking, swimming, or trail running. She finds joy in anything that allows her to appreciate the wonders of the natural world.

MASSAGE THERAPIST & YOGA INSTRUCTOR
After backpacking through many places in the US, Tabitha landed on Mt.Hood in 2001 and fell in love with the mountain, its community, and the beautiful state of Oregon.
Fascinated with the human body and a natural desire to help people with discomfort, Tabitha pursued a career in massage therapy. In 2012, she graduated from East West College of the Healing Arts in Portland, Oregon. With over 13 years of experience working with acute and chronic injury and trauma, Tabitha offers holistic therapeutic bodywork that integrates Deep Tissue, Thai Massage, Tui Na , Gua Sha, Cupping, Trigger Point Therapy, Neuromuscular Techniques, Structural Integration, and Swedish massage. Each session is thoughtfully customized, addressing not only physical discomfort but the deeper patterns of tension that affect overall well-being. Drawing from both Eastern healing traditions and modern therapeutic approaches, Tabitha works to restore balance, improve mobility, and support the body’s natural ability to heal. Treatments are focused, intuitive, and results-oriented—supporting clients dealing with chronic pain, stress-related tension, injury recovery, and energetic imbalance. Tabitha finds passion in helping clients connect, communicate, and discover self awareness by creating space for the body to release, reset, and function more freely for overall long term health.
In 2024, Tabitha became certified as a yoga instructor. As a yoga teacher, she encourages regular exercise and stretching as essential tools for strength, maintaining mobility, reducing tension, supporting overall well-being and helping clients sustain long-term health beyond the treatment room.
Tabitha’s love of nature comes with an adventurous spirit. She loves backpacking, camping, hiking, snowboarding, mountain biking, rafting, paddle boarding, traveling, cooking, dancing, and practicing yoga.

HHP, FDN-P
YOGA INSTRUCTOR & PERSONAL TRAINER
Kelsey's journey in the health and fitness space started after having her first child in 2006. She was exhausted, overweight, and struggling with her health. She changed her life with consistent exercise, healthy eating, and lifestyle habits. After achieving her health goals, she became passionate about helping others find answers to their health struggles. Fast forward to today, Kelsey boasts a variety of certifications to support her clients look and feel their best. As a personal trainer and yoga instructor, she supports clients with fitness, mindset, and wellness goals.
While Kelsey adores fitness and movement, her main scope of practice resides in the functional medicine space. As a board certified Holistic Health Practitioner and FDN-P (Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner), Kelsey is consistently disheartened with stories of individuals who aren't getting the care or answers they deserve from their current healthcare team. Kelsey takes a very different approach! She uses functional lab testing (done conveniently at home) to gather the necessary data needed to assess metabolic function in all areas of the body. She believes the body works as a WHOLE UNIT, not individual systems with no influence on the other. Everything is connected! Kelsey uses your health history, genetic predisposition, previous labs, and symptoms to dig deeper into the root causes behind your health complaints. She then builds personalized programs that are as unique as you are, effectively working with your body, instead of against it.
In Kelsey's free time, she enjoys playing her cello, oil painting, cooking, exploring the Pacific Northwest with her husband and kiddos, or snuggling her pups at home while reading a good book.
