Meet Donna
Intentional, loving, and healing touch has been an integral part of my journey since the very beginning. My grandmother, Donnagene, graduated from massage school the same year I was born, and from an early age, she introduced me to the transformative power of bodywork. I spent my childhood visiting her spa, where I learned not only from her teachings but also from the deep connection formed through receiving her nurturing touch. As the owner of this massage studio, the name “Deep Roots” is a tribute to that foundational influence.
My formal training began at The Pacific Center for Awareness and Bodywork in Kauai, Hawaii, where I learned the importance of postural alignment alongside various modalities, including deep tissue, sports massage, and Swedish relaxation. I have also been trained in cupping therapy, which continues to impress me for its remarkable ability to release tension, promote detoxification, and enhance mobility.
In 2014, I had the privilege of traveling to Thailand and Laos to study the art of Thai yoga massage, and later to Nepal with a group of massage therapists. There, we set up massage clinics and taught locals how to work on each other—a profoundly meaningful experience that I hold dear.
I bring together intuition, compassion, and a broad knowledge base in a variety of modalities to offer healing, balance, and comfort to the body, mind, and spirit.
Meet Lydia
I see massage as coming home to your body and its deep wisdom. After a profound journey of self-discovery in Baja, Mexico, during a yoga teacher training, I knew I had found my calling working with the body. Growing up in West Africa, I battled with mental and physical health challenges, consistently seeking relief. It wasn't until embracing a cleansing diet and incorporating movement into my life that I truly connected with my body's intuitive capacity for healing. This awakening led me to pursue a career as a massage therapist, where I have had the privilege of assisting over 13,000 clients on their healing paths. With over 14 years of experience and 3000+ hours of education as a therapist and massage instructor, I have honed my skills in cranial sacral therapy, neuromuscular techniques, deep tissue, Thai/sports stretching, trauma-informed breathwork, and intuitive touch and now manual lymphatic drainage. Seamlessly blending these modalities allows your unique needs to be met with the utmost care. Together, we will create a safe and nurturing environment that encourages deep healing and relaxation, allowing your body's innate healing abilities to flourish. Witness the amazing language of touch as it gently brings you home to yourself, and let me guide you to a place where your mind and body find true harmony. Come as you are, leave refreshed.
Meet Jasmine
I love helping facilitate health and wellness in myself and others. The human body is incredible in all that it is capable of and in all of the intricacies of its day to day functioning. Learning about the body is a lifelong process and I love sharing what I know through healing touch. I am a graduate of Higher Elevation Healing Arts in Gypsum with training in Swedish, Deep Tissue, Sports, Hot Stone and Cupping therapies. I have lived in the Vail Valley since December 2017.
Outside of the massage world I have worn many different hats… I have a Bachelor of Music in Piano Performance and a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry. Since graduating from college I have gone to massage school, been a raft guide, ski instructor, tutor, substitute teacher, wrangler and yoga teacher. I love to do just about anything active and outside… acroyoga, climbing, backpacking, rafting, mountain biking, slacklining, horseback riding… All of these things have led me to deepen my appreciation of the healing effects of bodywork. Excited to meet you and help you on your health journey!
Meet Brigitte
My original healing journey started with my love for the medicinal powers of food. After earning my bachelors degree in nutrition, I quickly realized how sacred touch can be. The artistic quality of massage is truly my passion. Working and creating with my hands has healed me in ways I didn’t realize I needed; taking time to connect, slow down and breathe.
I grew up in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and made my way to Colorado in 2013. I immediately enrolled in the Colorado School of Healing Arts and following graduation, traveled to northern Thailand to study the ancient practice of Thai massage. I have been growing and continuing to expand my practice in the Vail Valley for 6 years. My strengths in the practice are deep tissue, sports recovery, dynamic stretching, Thai/ashiastu, qued breathing and compassionate touch. From start to finish I want my client to feel that they are in the safest hands and they are going to leave feeling better than they’ve ever felt.
Meet Molly
I’ve grown my roots as a massage therapist here in Vail after graduating from Higher Elevation Healing Arts School in 2017 where I learned deep tissue, Swedish, hot stone, prenatal, and sports massage as well as the more subtle yet potent practices of Reiki and Cranio Sacral Therapy. I love the blending of art and science that massage therapy lends to and the deep healing that can be experienced as layers of tension in the body and mind are released and melt away. In addition to loving massage therapy, I also love being creative and making art! In the studio are some items for sale such as planters and some jewelry made from bike chains.
Meet Nikohl
As a massage therapist I am passionate about therapeutic work, wellness, relaxation and creating a space for all of those needs to be met. I believe in communication and active listening to create a partnership so each client leaves receiving the massage they wished. I have training in Swedish, deep tissue, sports recovery, hot stone, pre-natal and cupping massage and love being able to use these modalities to create the perfect massage for each person. I am so lucky to have lived in the vail valley since 2018 and to call these beautiful mountains my home. I moved here from the Outerbanks, NC, lured by the promise of snowy winters and sunny summers. In my free time I love hiking, snowboarding, attending music shows and volunteering at Habitat for Humanity and the Mountain Horse Rescue in Wolcott.
