“Sessions with Akasha have been greatly beneficial. Her structural work is deeply therapeutic and her knowledge of the body has been highly informative. I feel better, lighter and calmer every time I get a treatment from Akasha 🙂 “
~Amanda M., Oakland, CA
“I have been seeing Akasha for a few years now and she knows my sore spots better than I do! Â Â She really does care about well being of her clients and it shows in her work. Â Although I usually enjoy a 60-90 minute full body massage with her, she has an expansive background in massage therapy and healing. Â Her office is private, quiet and clean….a perfect setting to get your body worked on. Â She is also very flexible with her schedule too. Highly recommended!”
~Tony L., Oakland, CA
“I have had many people work on me over the years and most have been nearly the same every time. Akasha has her own way about working on the body. She has a confidence and strength that is rare and very special. Â From the first touch I feel safe and her intuition is always right on.”
~ David S., Oakland, CA
“I have been going to Akasha for almost two years and have been very happy with the results. I play competitive tennis and often have very tight quads, hammies etc. She has consistently relieved these and I walk out of her studio feeling like a new man. My knees would be so much dead weight without her. She is also very professional, timely, and sympathetic–good experience for sure.”
~John Z., Orinda, CA
“I first met Akasha when we hired her to work in our office in 2014, providing regular chair massage to our entire team. She has a special quality that allows her to create movement and relaxation with a minimum of focused, deep touch. I’ve since had her do massage for me individually out of the office, and really appreciate Akasha’s ability to integrate what she already knows about me and my body with whatever my current issue is – and she feels like a true partner in my health. Highly recommend her!”
~Kate C., Berkeley, CA
“What a miracle worker. Truly talented! Exceptionally skilled, with a huge heart and kind, compassionate nature, Akasha is a wonderful therapist whom I’m pleased to recommend! I am a practitioner of acupuncture and massage as well, and this is the massage therapist I trusted to help me with a challenging neck injury. She rocked it! Love this woman. So grateful for her! Do yourself a favor and go see her… your body and spirit will immediately thank you! Your mind will be asleep but it will thank you later;)”
~Jen I., Oakland, CA
“I’ve had lower back/glute pain for years. Often it’s so deep that massage therapists can’t really get to it, and I’ve been to many. Akasha uses a different style that totally worked for me. Instead of having me lie on my back, she had me lie on my side. From that angle, she was able to find and work on the source of the pain in my glutes. She also had a good sense of touch and a nicely flowing style. I highly recommend her!”
~Adam C., San Francisco, CA
“When I go to see Akasha, I never even have to explain what to do. She is truly an intuitive and can read my body like it is a road map and she knows exactly what route to take to take me to sheer bliss. Her work is deep and thorough and when she is done you feel like she has ironed all your creases out and put you back into a neat little package again. I have been getting bodywork for a long time with many different therapists and it’s always interesting to see the different modalities and moves that each one has to offer, but I really feel that when I am in Akasha’s hands there is something divine in play. You will be walking around feeling a foot taller and an overall lightness in your whole entire being.”
~Erika V., San Rafael, CA
“Since 1998 I’ve experienced many bodywork sessions from various practitioners. Akasha outshines them all with her presence and skill in going to the edge of deep tissue work without causing soreness. Our last session she included NLP that made a profound shift in my being. I wholeheartedly recommend Akasha for optimal integrative healing.”
~Ray G., San Francisco, CA
Praise for Readings
“I’ve been seeing Akasha for cranial sacral work, and you should know there’s magic in those hands, but more than that, I just feel held from the very second I walk in the door. While I’m on the table, it’s a dreamy experience, as if she can release tension in my legs through gentle touches in my neck. I don’t know how it works, but it’s a truly remarkable experience. Just go.”
~David S., Berkeley, CA
“Akasha worked on me after I took a blow to my neck. She had a gentle but firm touch as she applied craniosacral therapy. She helped me on my path to healing.”
~Onah I., Oakland, CA
“I’ve had a number of fantastic sports massage sessions with Akasha. She’s very knowledgeable in where and how sports injuries can occur, has a calming and pleasant demeanor which puts you at ease and has an expert healing touch. I definitely recommend her bodywork and I certainly will continue to go back!”
~Jake C., Oakland, CA
“When I was pregnant, my new body needed some help managing the stress on my back and hips so I searched for a pre-natal massage therapist who also did massage unrelated to pregnancy (so I could continue with massage well after my pregnancy), and luckily found Akasha. Akasha relieved the tension in my aching hips with her intuitive, knowledgeable and experienced massage. And that was just the beginning — she knew exactly where to focus for my other existing aches during my full body massage, and made me feel very comfortable (in my uncomfortable 2nd trimester body). I continue to see Akasha now that my son is older, and I highly recommend her for pre-natal massage, as well as for less specialized massage.”
~Audrey H., Oakland, CA
“I went to see Akasha with some pretty extreme soreness and knots from surfing and snowboarding frequently. She was able to target and work out the areas that I was having trouble with without being too harsh like some of the sports massage therapists I see. The atmosphere was very relaxed and I love the scented humidifier. 100% worth the investment, I left feeling brand new!”
~Josh O.
“Akasha is a very gifted & talented healer. Intuitive touch & she also knows about human design. Highly recommend 90 mins ! Her office location is easily accessible and also makes house calls.”
~Fred P., Oakland, CA
“Wow! Akasha really is an amazing massage therapist. I was having lots of tightness in my back and shoulders and I came out feeling like melted butter. So very nice! Thanks for your tremendous work! Look forward to the next massage!”
