Social media has been feeling pretty heavy lately, so I’m choosing to step back a bit and mostly use this space to share my availability and upcoming events.
But since it’s been a while… I thought I’d reintroduce myself.
Hi, I’m Val, the owner of Little Tree Massage & Wellness. 🌿
My path to massage therapy actually began with homebirth midwifery. I spent four very dedicated years studying and attending 40+ births as a student midwife. Supporting mothers has always felt like a deep calling for me.
Eventually I realized the on-call lifestyle midwifery requires wasn’t aligned with the life I wanted for myself and my family. It was a hard decision—but it led me exactly where I was meant to be.
In 2016, I began my massage studies at the Ashland Institute of Massage, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Through bodywork, I now get to support women and mothers through many stages of life.
My sessions blend intuition with several modalities including therapeutic massage, relaxation, craniosacral therapy, lymphatic drainage, Thai massage, and hot stones.
When I’m not in the treatment room, my favorite role is being a mama to my two young boys 💙💙. Our family loves being outdoors—rafting, hiking, camping, and chasing whatever adventure comes next.
Thanks for being here and supporting my little business. 🌿
