About
Hi, I'm Asha, and I'm a licensed bodyworker, aquatic therapist, and somatics practitioner with a studio based in Oakland. My bodywork style involves merging orthopedic deep tissue, shiatsu, myofascial cupping, and structural integration. I incorporate Neurokinetic therapy into my sessions to intentionally and strategically address areas of concern. My sessions are centered around meeting my client's body where it currently is and continually assessing throughout the process. I pride myself on being a deep listener and allowing the client's needs to guide our time together.

Additionally, I specialize in aquatic bodywork, having expertise in Aguahara and Liquid Presence techniques that are effective both on the surface and underwater. These sessions provide an opportunity for weightless compressions and releases that are not only deeply relaxing but also transformative and emotionally cathartic, making them a great choice for rehabilitation.

Asha's massage was simply amazing! She has exceptional skills and I intend to return soon. The process of scheduling an appointment was hassle-free and the ambiance of the venue was delightful.

The massage I received from Asha was exceptional; it was one of the best I've experienced in a while. Asha implements resistance and movement techniques to target specific areas, allowing them to open up, relax, and release knots. This approach creates a seamless and harmonious release of tension throughout the body, which is both soothing and productive.

The massage I received was wonderful. The masseuse demonstrated a great ability to identify my areas of focus and personalized the massage accordingly. Exceptional pressure was applied and overall professionalism was exhibited. I intend to become a returning customer without hesitation.

In my twenty or so years of receiving deep tissue and sports massages, Asha's massage is among the top. It was thorough and went deep into my muscles. The day before my appointment with Asha, I had completed a half marathon and shared with him the issues, pains, and tightness I had experienced during the run, as well as the recent numbness in my arms. Asha focused on key points in my arms, back, and legs, taking his time with each. Unlike the relaxing massages that put you to sleep, I had to stay engaged throughout the session. The next day, I felt better, and within two days, I was running again. If you're looking for the best massage or simply want one, Asha is a great choice.

To manage my persistent problems, I sought a medical massage. Instead, I received a somatic healing experience that aided in addressing past trauma that had been confined in my body for countless years. This was administered by a kind, loving, and sagacious soul who surpassed his age. I have future sessions booked and am relieved to have support on my path to recovery. My sincerest gratitude to you!
