Tessa Churchman

Healing Touch is a gift I was given
at birth.

I started my journey in bodywork with yoga, Qigong, meditation and other forms of spiritual practice. Learning about he body through movement only made my curiosity grow! I wanted to find away to help my students push there bodies beyond what they had ever expected.

I began to understand the importance of massage and fascia work, both for health of the body and the mind. My first formal education in massage was in Sweden. I learned True swedish massage, deep tissue, sport and more. I lived in the south of Sweden for years, teaching and touching as many people as possible. But I felt like there was a missing link.

I went on to deepen my study in India; learning an Ayurvedic approach to massage and bodywork.

My eyes opened with the gentleness of aroma massage, Shirodara and Reki.

My Approach

My approach now combines both western and eastern philosophy, giving my clients a well rounded nurturing-healing massage offering Swedish massage, cupping, deep tissue, Therapeutic-stretching, sport, pregnancy, Hot Stone, AromaTouch and relaxation.

“We had to travel half way across the world to find the most incredible massage therapist! We were gifted a Goddess Massage by our family who live in Grass Valley in 2021 and have been dreaming about returning for another one ever since. We booked in advance to make sure there was time for a 90 minute massage this time around as 60 minutes was just not enough! 

Tessa is intuitive when she massages and it’s clear from the outset that she knows her anatomy inside out. I have always suffered with carrying stress in my neck, shoulders, upper back, jaw area and this is the first time ever I have felt huge relief. I have had more than my fair share of massages across the world, at 5* spas and independent therapists, and no one has ever compared to Tessa.  

I am in again today for another 90 minutes, making the most of my stay in the lovely Grass Valley!  

If you live close by or are passing through, I would highly recommend you book an appointment. It will be life changing!”
