Skintalk Massage Therapy & Body Care - Columbus, WI

✨ Hello friends! ✨

I have an opening this Thursday at 11:00 AM for either a 60- or 90-minute session. You can choose between a relaxing facial or therapeutic bodywork, depending on what your body is asking for.

It’s also a great chance to explore something new — like craniosacral therapy for nervous system reset, a quick stretch session on your lunch break, or a lymphatic treatment to support circulation and recovery. 🌿

Ever wonder if I get my own treatment? I absolutely do!

Today was my *much needed* self care day. Spent the morning with the amazing Nelly at Wisconsin Lymphatic Therapy in Verona for a much needed lymphatic treatment.

I am so very grateful for all of the providers that help me along on my own healing journey. I wouldn't be able to show up in life or in my work the way I do if it weren't for them.

And I'll leave you with one of my favorite self care mantras for the day:

When I take care of me, I take care of US.

🍂 It sure feels like fall this weekend, and my goal for the season is simple: to enjoy it.

Gwen and I are soaking up the crisp air while I dive into an easy read by John Upledger on craniosacral therapy. 📖✨

Bringing this type of therapy to you all has been very eye-opening. I’m thankful for the profound shifts many of you have felt — and also humbled and curious by those whose bodies take longer to respond. Every journey reminds me that healing unfolds at its own pace.

Here’s to learning, growing, and leaning into what this season has to offer. 🧡

I couldn’t have said this better myself! The benefits of craniosacral therapy (CST) are unmatched and so profound.

Healing from one of the deepest core levels of our bodies, and tending to the life force that is the craniosacral rhythm.

I am now offering CST as another incredible tool to help you on your path to healing ❤️‍🩹 and I am so grateful to the Upledger Institute for their amazing education classes and helping me to bring in this one of a kind type of treatment.

🌙 Better Sleep, Naturally 🌙

Struggling with restless nights? You’re not alone—1 in 5 Americans experience chronic sleep deprivation. But what if the key to deep, restorative rest isn’t found in a pill bottle?

✨ CranioSacral Therapy (CST) offers a gentle, hands-on approach that helps calm the nervous system, reduce stress, and invite the body into a state of profound relaxation—making restful sleep possible without the side effects of sleep aids.

🧠Research even shows CST can help regulate the autonomic nervous system—the body’s built-in switch between stress and rest—supporting not just sleep, but digestion, mood, and overall health.

🛌 Sleep is more than downtime; it’s when your body heals, your brain resets, and your well-being thrives. Ready to experience the difference?

September is and a topic that is very close to my heart.

This month is a reminder of how important it is to care for one another in both big and small ways.

My work is trauma focused not just because it feels good to be kind, but because creating safety, presence, and compassion can sometimes make the biggest difference of all.

I deeply value the trust I share with every client, every friend, and every loved one I get the honor of holding space for.

You can always come to me. My door is always open. I will never judge you. If you are struggling, please know you are not alone.

We are in this together and from the bottom of my heart, this world needs .

My books are now open through the end of the year! 🍁✨

With the seasons beginning to shift, now’s a lovely time to plan ahead and make space for yourself. I’ve also made the heartfelt decision to pause accepting new clients for now, so I can continue showing up fully for those already in my care.

Thank you for being part of this healing space — it’s truly an honor to support your body, your rest, and your growth. 🤎🍂

Ahh… so true.

August is always a turning point for me. Summer starts to wind down, school will be starting soon, and I’ll be fully immersed in a state of 🎃 Halloween 👻 until at least mid-November.

And yet, we still ask so much from ourselves.

When is it time to rest?
When are we allowed to take a breath and a break?

If it’s not summer activities keeping us packed to the brim, the holidays come rolling in to continue the momentum. The sun begins to rise later and set earlier… why don’t we?

This season, I invite you to explore what rest really means for you.
🌿 Is it a walk through nature without your phone?
🧘 Is it that yoga class you’ve been meaning to try?
📖 Is it journaling on your porch with your morning drink as the sky slowly brightens?

Whatever it is, I’m so excited to hear what sacred little pockets of peace you find through this season.

Let’s soften together. 🍂

Two... years...

Two freaking years! Yesterday marked two whole years since I went solo as a bodyworker, and opened the doors to my private practice. It has truly been a leap of faith — and believe me when I say: I couldn’t have done this without you 🥺

Thank you to everyone who has allowed me to work with them over the years. Some of you have been with me since I was just a student in school! You’ve watched me grow, I’ve watched you heal. Together, we’ve created a beautiful space to care for your health and well-being 🌱

Bodywork has taught me so many things, but most importantly this: life is all we’ve got. Literally. It’s essential to keep learning, stay curious, keep discovering, and keep healing. Bodywork is one of the greatest gifts we have been given to connect with ourselves.

Here’s to many more. Thank you for your support — I am endlessly grateful to walk alongside you on your journey 🐦‍🔥

✨ Now booking for SEPTEMBER! ✨

I know… it feels wild to think about fall 🍂 when we’re just starting to soak up these July days. But here we are — planning ahead so we can keep feeling our best as the seasons change.

I've opened up quite a few appointments online, so feel free to snag a spot that works for you. More times may become available as we move closer.

I can’t wait to take care of you this fall. 💛

✨ I’m not training for a “summer body.” I’m training for a lifetime body. ✨

This is why I love massage therapy so much. It’s not just about relaxation — it’s about helping our bodies stay strong and mobile for the long haul.

We’re lucky if we get to make it through life without a big injury or setback. But health isn’t really about luck… it’s something we nurture, little by little, every day.

Be gentle with yourself today — your future self will thank you. 💛

I’m sharing this update with deep appreciation for the trust and connection we’ve built. I truly value being able to cultivate effective and collaborative sessions that heal deeply, and I thank each person who allows me to help them.

Beginning August 1st, my session rates will increase to reflect the ongoing presence, education, and care I bring to each session. This remains a non-tipping practice, with all massage techniques included, and minimized additional charges for add-ons in facials.

I hope you all have a wonderful holiday weekend filled with joy and love! ☀️

Today we celebrate all the moms out there! Including us dog moms 🐾 those of you who have met my little Gwennie know how much I love her and I’m grateful for the love she brings to our healing space ☀️

Whether you’re a mother by birth, by heart, or by nurturing spirit— I hope you know how much your presence matters. You are seen, cherished, and deeply appreciated.

I hope today brings you a soft moment to rest, and to receive even a small piece of the love you so freely give.

Happy Mother’s Day
