Massage therapy, body working, body ball rolling available in Nosara, Costa Rica with NCBTMB certified massage therapist Roland Aber. Nestled at the edge of a tropical forest on a noel of ancient volcanic rock, grounded to the earth with two old growth pochote trees, our massage rancho is the perfect place to get yourself back in alignment. The rancho has a surround of lush vegetation. Built of solid teak wood framing and a custom Guanacaste wood flood. No dust, street noise, boxed in room w/ A/C or other distractions from the total serenity of your massage state. There is the sounds of birds and ocean from two directions with the occasional family of monkeys or pisotes traveling through. My massage practice is based on a lifetime of experience in body movement and all of its ramifications; the aches & pains, injures, and accidents inflicted upon the body. My first experiences in movement started a few years after learning to walk, with my father teaching me how to speed skate on ice. Then, in random order, road and mountain biking, motorcycling, downhill and cross country snow skiing, water slalom skiing, inline skating, sea and surf kayaking, body surfing, recreational tree climbing, ballet and modern dance. In addition the practices of Aikido, Chi Chung, yoga and Pilates. I have dealt with knee & shoulder injuries along with a total right hip replacement. Receiving a massage every three to four weeks for years has been a major part of keeping my body mobile and tuned to perform these sports in an enjoyable and passionate way. I trained at the internationally acclaimed Costa Rica School of Massage Therapy, and am certified with the National Certification Board of Therapeutic Massage and Body Work in the U.S. My massage skills are honed from a lifetime of association with massage and my professional training. My practice style is an eclectic medley of several modalities including Swedish, deep tissue, myofascial, Neuromuscular and Trigger Point therapy, Shiatsu, Thai yoga and QiGong, Cranial Sacra Therapy and Reiki. I receive so much gradated when I can be a vessel for others to experience ease and comfort within their body. Please contact to book your massage appointment.
