BlackSage Bodyworks, LMT Artfully facilitating the natural healing forces within. My unique approach aims to combine modalities in order to gratify each of my clients' unique needs.

I am a Board Certified Massage Therapist who has devoted myself to implementing a consciously holistic approach to the ancient art of bodywork. I am here for those that have an interest in their overall health, those who call for a held space where they can escape from the rat race of the world to relax, and those who seek ease from musculoskeletal discomfort. I aim to help clients dive deep in order to reconnect with themselves to facilitate the body’s natural strive for homeostasis.

✨ We’ve officially moved! ✨
BlackSage Bodyworks has a new home.

While we’re so sad to say goodbye to our cozy space at Rooted Heart—our home for over five incredible years—we’re excited to begin this next chapter. Rooted Heart has been a place of deep connection, healing, and growth, and we’ll forever be grateful for the community we found there. We’ll still be visiting often and continuing to refer clients back to the amazing team there.

Come see us at:
🌿 244 N Washington St, Denver, CO
(Inside Fusion Chiropractic, Cherry Creek/Wash Park)

Let the next season begin 🌱

A few details to keep in mind:

• Parking: Easiest access is from Speer into the lot cradled by the building. There’s also free street parking on Washington. Both streets are one-ways, so plan your route accordingly.
• Entrance: Use the main door on Washington St and look for the Fusion Chiropractic sign. There is a lovely tree right next to the entrance and little turquoise chairs.

Let me know if you have any trouble finding us!

I wanted to show you a glimpse of what life is like in the mountains…

This is the view from our home at Redtail Retreat—where the moose occasionally wander by.

We’ve been pouring love and effort into turning our off-grid home into a full-blown homestead. Our newest additions include two Colorado Mountain Dogs named St. Stephen and Mr. Charlie (our loyal LGDs), a pig named Mr. Dinner (yes, really), and a spirited flock of chickens. 🐓🐾

Next up? Bees and sheep, if all goes well this next year.

Someone recently suggested I share more of what we’re creating up here, and truthfully, I never thought to. So—thank you for taking interest. Here it is! More to come. 🌿

BlackSage Bodyworks is Moving!

We’re relocating this June—just a mile down the road to 244 N Washington St, inside Fusion Chiropractic in the Cherry Creek neighborhood. The new space features a large parking lot and a fresh, welcoming atmosphere that truly supports the work we offer.

While this move wasn’t something we anticipated, we’re choosing to see it as an exciting opportunity to grow —both professionally and personally—as we continue building the BlackSage brand with intention and care.

We’ll be taking a short break at the end of May and into early June to make this transition (and road trip cross country!). Thank you for your continued support—we can’t wait to welcome you into this next chapter.

Happy Spring Equinox from BlackSage Bodyworks,

As the light stretches further into our days, may it continue to grow within each of us. This season invites renewal, awakening, and a soft return to the body. We hope you’re finding ways to honor this shift in your own rhythm and pace.

What’s New at the Studio…

We’re thrilled to share that Maylani will be taking over our second room full-time to offer her beloved floor-based Thai massage as her own independent practice. This shift allows her to do what she loves most, while also creating space for me to focus on the next chapter: opening a new, additional, studio in Idaho Springs later this year.
And speaking of Idaho Springs…

This summer, BlackSage Bodyworks will begin offering massage sessions in local Airbnbs! Whether you’re planning a mountain getaway or hosting loved ones in the area, our on-site massage service brings the experience straight to your door. With optional add-ons like foot soaks, hot stones, and CBD salves, it’s easy to create a private retreat without ever leaving the cabin.
We’ll also be offering massage to guests staying at our own Airbnb, Redtail Retreat—a newly renovated mountain escape featuring a wood-fired sauna and stunning views of the Continental Divide. Until further developement, massage at Redtail Retreat will only be available to guests staying at the property. Sorry, we have not gotten further than that (yet)!
If you know an Airbnb host in or near the Idaho Springs area who might be interested in partnering, we’d love to connect!

Thank you, as always, for being part of this growing, evolving community. Wishing you a season of light, growth, and deep nourishment.

-Sara

Hi, I’m Sara.
Founder and practitioner at BlackSage Bodyworks.

At BlackSage Bodyworks, we embrace a philosophy of profound holistic healing, rooted in the synergy of artistic application and scientifically backed methods of therapeutic bodywork. Our mission is to artfully facilitate the natural healing forces within, using massage techniques that confront dysfunctional patterns and promote wellness—so your body can move, function, and feel better.

Black Sage itself is a powerful medicinal herb—used topically to soothe musculoskeletal ailments (especially of the feet, our connection to this earth) and as smoke medicine to clear out all the bu****it that clouds the soul. It’s about releasing, realigning, and reclaiming your path.

As I step into my 13th year as a practitioner, I feel more aligned than ever with the medicine I carry. Every session, every client, every breath affirms this mission.

Today, I’m making BlackSage bath bombs and herbal goodies infusing the herbal element that is our name 🖤

Here’s to the alchemical dance with the deep obsidian of the soul. Always learning and uncovering the layers of the self 🌱

Our Story

BlackSage Bodywork’s mission is to artfully facilitate the natural healing forces within by providing therapeutic massage with the mindset of mindfully confronting dysfunction patterns in order to resolve the root cause.

Sara's style is detailed and adaptive to benefit every body, since no two are alike. She is able to dive deep into the crevices that are often overlooked to bring radical normalization to the body. She enjoys working outside the box by developing, customizing, and adjusting treatments to the ever changing needs of each individual client. Since graduating from Berkana Institute of Massage Therapy in 2012, Sara found her niche in deep tissue massage after working extensively with the unique musculoskeletal maladjustments faced by the circus arts community. Being an athlete most of her life, and sustaining injuries as a result, she has developed pertinent knowledge of kinesiology, as well as the associated therapeutic techniques.

Sara is trained in a variety of modalities including, but not limited to: Swedish, deep tissue, neuromuscular therapy, myo-facial techniques, inter-oral therapy, aromatherapy, Thai massage, hot and cold stone therapy, cupping, and pre-natal. She is pursuing the full 250- hour advanced Mindful Expressionism® Certification and currently is a competent practitioner of 'Level 1: Extremities, Sciatic, Carpal Tunnel, and Plantar Fasciitis', 'Level 2: TMJ, Jaw, Head, Neck, and Face,' as well as ‘Level 5: Low Back Specialization.’ To learn more about this program: http://berkanainstitute.com/mindful-expressionism/

Massage therapy provided Sara with an opportunity to combine her scientific fascination of anatomy with an outlet for her natural artistic ability. Ideal candidates are those who want to receive professional and artistic therapeutic touch from someone who is deliberate in their work.
