I cannot recommend Roxy at Embracing Wellness highly enough.

I first came to Roxy after weeks in the hospital and surgery, when I was dealing with severe, debilitating pain. Despite seeing countless specialists and receiving excellent medical care, I kept hearing the same advice: “Take Tylenol, take Advil, give it time.” I felt like no one truly understood how much I was struggling.

Roxy did.

She listened with genuine compassion, drew from her own experiences, and introduced me to somatic bodywork, approaching my pain in a way that made me feel understood from the very first session. The relief she has given me has exceeded anything I could have hoped for. I now see her every week without fail. Even though I work with many practitioners and some of the best doctors in the world, Roxy is the one person I know I can count on to help me find relief, every single time.

Beyond her incredible skill, Roxy is simply an extraordinary human being. She makes me feel seen, heard, cared for, and genuinely supported. You can feel how deeply she believes in the power of somatic healing and how invested she is in each person’s healing journey.

Working with Roxy has been truly transformational for my health and recovery. I am profoundly grateful to have found her, and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone dealing with chronic pain, recovering from surgery, or anyone curious about how somatic bodywork can support the body’s healing process.

Working with Roxy through somatic bodywork has had a profound impact on my ability to regulate my nervous system and reconnect with a deeper sense of safety in my body. Before these sessions, I carried a high level of sympathetic activation—especially in work environments where I felt overwhelmed or under pressure. I often experienced chronic tension (especially in my hips and sacral area), difficulty resting, and a constant need to stay hyper-aware and ‘hold it all together.’

Since starting this work, I’ve noticed meaningful changes in how I experience and respond to stress:

I’m able to notice and name sensations without bracing or dissociating.

I’ve started interrupting old patterns of over-efforting or hypervigilance.

I’m learning to recognize internal safety cues, like warmth, breath, or grounded feet.

I’ve begun to reclaim my boundaries, both physically and emotionally—especially when I feel

activation in my core.

What’s been most transformative is that I’m no longer just thinking about self-care—I’m actually feeling permission in my body to rest, pause, and receive. My sleep has improved. I feel more centered. And I can now access presence without being on high alert.

This work has truly helped me understand that regulation isn’t about “calming down.” It’s about coming home to myself.

After our somatic session, my body continued gently unwinding on its own while I rested. I felt calm, safe, and deeply relaxed; like subtle waves moving through my central channel. It was a beautiful reminder that when the nervous system feels supported, the body naturally knows how to release and reorganize.

Roxy is an amazing person, massage therapist, and intuitive healer. She heals with her mind and her loving hands. She alleviates physical pain which is connected to emotions generated in subconscious mind. Roxy can help you heal your physical and emotional pain in a custom massage therapy session. I highly recommend her services.

The best practitioners have ability that is beyond what can be taught. Roxie is certainly in that group. Looking forward to more work.

Roxy has a gift for providing care that transports my mind and body to a centered, balanced place that allows me to heal and feel restored.
