Hi, I’m Jodi, a New York State Licensed Massage Therapist and Birth Doula passionate about helping people move, feel, and live better.

I believe massage therapy is more than a luxury — it is an important part of caring for your body and overall well-being. Every session is customized to your individual needs using modalities such as Swedish Massage, Trigger Point Therapy, Connective Tissue Therapy, Reflexology, Shiatsu, and movement-based bodywork.

Whether you are seeking relief from chronic tension, recovering from physical strain, managing stress, or looking for support during pregnancy and postpartum, my goal is to help you leave feeling better than when you arrived.

I am committed to continuing my education to provide the highest level of care while creating a welcoming and judgment-free environment for every client.

I began my career in massage therapy in 2005 after graduating from the Onondaga School of Therapeutic Massage in Rochester. Passionate about helping people move and feel their best, I continued my education and earned my degree as a Physical Therapist Assistant from Genesee Community College in 2015.

I am licensed in New York State in both professions. After working in a variety of healthcare settings, I've developed a holistic approach to wellness. I believe massage therapy, physical therapy, and chiropractic care work together as an integrated system to support optimal health, improve mobility, and reduce pain. Some of my favorite treatment techniques include Active Release Techniques (ART) and massage cupping therapy, which allow me to effectively address muscle tension, movement restrictions, and chronic discomfort.

When I'm not helping clients, you'll usually find me spending time outdoors with my two sons and two dogs. I enjoy running, reading by the water, boating, hiking, and planning my next travel adventure. I love staying active and making the most of every season.

I’m passionate about helping people feel confident, refreshed, and cared for. I specialize in facials and nail services, and I love creating relaxing self-care experiences for every guest.

Whether you are visiting for glowing skin, beautiful nails, or simply a peaceful moment to unwind, my goal is to make your visit feel special and rejuvenating.

Outside of the spa, I enjoy traveling with friends, reading good books, and spending time with my cat, who always brightens my day. I look forward to welcoming you and helping you feel beautiful inside and out.

I’m a Licensed Massage Therapist with an AAS degree from Monroe Community College and has been practicing since 2012.

I'm passionate about the healing benefits of massage therapy and its positive effects on both physical and mental well-being. I combine multiple massage modalities to meet the individual needs of my clients while working intuitively with the body to avoid overwhelming muscle tissue.

My goal is for every client to leave feeling refreshed, renewed, and cared for. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, trying new recipes, and spending time with my husband Brian, son Lincoln, and our dog Luna. Our family is excited to welcome a daughter in August 2026. 

As a licensed esthetician and nail technician, I entered the wellness industry with a genuine passion for helping others feel confident, comfortable, and cared for in their own skin.

My love for skincare began at a young age through my own personal skin journey, which taught me the importance of self-care and investing in overall wellness. That experience continues to inspire the way I care for my clients today.

Whether you are receiving a facial, HydraFacial, waxing service, manicure, pedicure, or polish application, my goal is to provide personalized care in a relaxing and welcoming environment. I strive to help every guest leave feeling refreshed, glowing, and more confident than when they arrived.

Hi, my name is Taylor, and I am a licensed nail technician at Healing Hands Wellness Studio. I graduated from Continental School of Beauty with dual licenses in Nails and Esthetics.

I specialize in clean, precision manicures and deeply restorative pedicures designed to promote relaxation and self-care. To me, nail care is more than a beauty service — it is an act of wellness and self-love.

I have always been passionate about baking and art, and I bring that same creativity, precision, and attention to detail into every service I provide.

Hi! My name is Natalie, and I am a licensed esthetician who studied at Continental School of Beauty. I am especially passionate about waxing and helping clients feel confident in their skin.

My goal is to help your skin look and feel its best while creating a relaxing experience that leaves you glowing and refreshed. I also love working with FarmHouse Fresh because every purchase helps support rescued animals.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, going to the gym, relaxing at the beach, and being with my two cats and two dogs.

I bring over a decade of experience in the beauty industry, with a strong focus on skincare. Since graduating from Continental School of Beauty in 2010, I've worked in both salon and medical spa settings, giving me extensive knowledge of skincare treatments and how to provide exceptional care for every client.

I'm passionate about creating the best possible experience for every guest and am always happy to help however I can. Outside of the studio, I enjoy biking around town, tending to my flower garden, and spending time with my husband and our four cats.

I became a massage therapist after facing my own health challenges and experiencing firsthand the powerful role massage therapy played in my healing journey. That experience inspired me to pursue a career in massage therapy so I could help others feel better in their bodies and improve their overall well-being.

I specialize in therapeutic massage and am certified in Oncology Massage. I'm also a Reiki Master and am currently training to become a Death Doula, allowing me to support clients through a variety of wellness and life experiences.

I am a Licensed Massage Therapist (NY/NJ), NSCA-Certified Personal Trainer, and chiropractic student at Northeast College of Health Sciences (DC Candidate, 2027).

With more than a decade of experience, I developed the Neuro-Muscular Reset System, a gentle, evidence-based approach designed to address chronic pain and stubborn tension by helping reset the nervous system rather than aggressively working the tissue.

Using gentle positioning, active movement, light pressure, and stainless steel tools, I help release tension comfortably and effectively without excessive soreness or discomfort. My approach is rooted in modern pain science and is designed to help clients experience lasting relief while improving movement, function, and overall wellness.

Hi, I'm Hayley! By day, I serve as an Assistant Principal, where I've built my career around creating welcoming environments, supporting others, and helping people feel seen and valued.

My passion for organization, communication, and building meaningful relationships has naturally led me to the front desk at Healing Hands Wellness Studio. I've always believed that self-care isn't a luxury—it's an essential part of living a healthy, balanced life. I'm passionate about creating calm, inviting spaces that help people feel comfortable, relaxed, and at ease, whether at home, at work, or here at Healing Hands. I believe that even the smallest details can make a meaningful difference in someone's experience.

When you visit Healing Hands, you'll be greeted with a friendly smile and someone who genuinely enjoys helping others prioritize their well-being. I look forward to welcoming you, ensuring your visit is seamless, and helping you begin your journey toward rest, renewal, and relaxation.
