Laura

Massage Therapist

We are thrilled to welcome Laura back to the Simi Spine and Wellness family. With decades of experience, a compassionate approach, and a true passion for helping people feel their best, Laura brings an exceptional level of care to every massage session.

Laura has been practicing massage therapy and bodywork since 1988 and has dedicated her career to helping clients reduce stress, relieve pain, and improve their overall well-being. Her extensive experience allows her to tailor each session to the unique needs of every individual, creating a personalized treatment experience that supports both relaxation and recovery.

Laura’s foundation is rooted in traditional Swedish massage, but her approach goes far beyond a standard session. She thoughtfully incorporates a variety of therapeutic techniques based on what your body needs on any given day, including:

  • Swedish massage
  • Acupressure
  • Reflexology
  • Trigger point therapy
  • Therapeutic stretching
  • Relaxation techniques
  • Soft tissue therapy

Because no two people are alike, Laura takes the time to listen and customize each treatment to address your specific concerns and wellness goals. Whether you are dealing with chronic muscle tension, recovering from physical activity, managing stress, or simply looking to relax and recharge, she creates a session designed just for you.

Patients appreciate Laura’s ability to combine technical skill with genuine care, helping them feel comfortable, supported, and relaxed from the moment they step into her treatment room. Schedule a massage with Laura and experience the difference that nearly four decades of experience can make.
