Ava Wentzel, LMT
(She/Her)

Ava is a Licensed Massage Therapist who graduated from the Cleveland Institute of Medical Massage. Throughout her life Ava has been a mediator, a helper, and a healer. She has an inherent desire to connect with everyone and in doing so, help them connect with themselves.

She views her work as a massage therapist as a pathway for clients to explore care and respect for their bodies and a gateway for people to experience a more well-rounded sense of well-being. Ava’s goal is to cultivate a safe environment for all clients and guide them towards awareness of their own bodies. She has a passion for restorative therapeutic work and prenatal massage.

As a dedicated yogi, Ava owes her intuitive way of working to the time spent slowing down and being mindful of her own body. When she’s not tending to herself, she tends to her plants, watches The Great British Baking Show, or settles into a corner of a local cafe.

Blanca Medina, LMT

Everyone recommended that she go to school to learn massage but she couldn’t find a school near her. Then, one of her sons gave her a gift certificate for a massage. Afterward she felt very relaxed and thought “this is what God wants me to do.” Soon after she found the massage school from which she graduated and has since been busy touching people’s lives for health and wellbeing.
