Massage in San Francisco, California


Email me at info@drdot.com put "Shanti/San Fran" in subject line to reach me fastest.

 

 

Born and raised in NYC, Shanti now lives in San Francisco. Trained in different corners of the globe, she has an eclectic background of studies she uses in her massage work. Acupressure, reflexology, Swedish, Chinese Medicine studied at a graduate level, and a Master's in Somatic Psych (which is the nitty gritty connection of mind-body-psyche) are all integrated into her practice. Really able to tune into a client, Shanti has a holistic approach specifically tailored to the individual's unique needs.

Due to her skills, Shanti has also worked and been hired for her special touch to help out with feral, undersocialized, aggressive and frightened animals and has been successful in getting animals especially felines comfortable and craving human touch. She also puts abandoned shelter dogs at ease with massage.

Touch is powerful and grounding and is often what is missing when we are running around so stressed on the road or in our daily lives making a living. She has worked with humans and animals in these modalities for over a decade….

Massage in Los Angeles California ( a little Rock and Roll Royalty here)

If  you want to book me, email me at: info@drdot.com and put "Julian/LA" in the subject line. 


 My Name is Julian Vai, and I live in Los Angeles, California where I enjoy practicing massage therapy. I discovered that I have a unique talent for being intuitively aware of the needs of a tattered body, and applying the right touch for its rejuvenation. I attended Kripalu in Massachusetts as well as the National Holistic Institute in California, where I attained over 1300 hours of massage therapy training.

I am now attending Santa Barbra City College and plan to become a chiropractor. I always had a passion for the healing arts and am now ready to explore deeper therapy for the whole being.
   
When not massaging my guilty pleasure is being a computer nerd who browsing the internet for hours, listening to music and seeking interesting people. I also love traveling and have recently logged 13,000 miles over a 4 month trek throughout the USA and Canada.

My dad  is a musician (Steve Vai) so I am  accustomed to chilling out back stage and know when to get out of the way. I understand people are busy and need the maximum benefit from their massage and that’s what I love doing.

I specialize in deep tissue, trigger point therapy, and happiness. I am thrilled to be working for Dr.Dot because she rocks hard. I auditioned with Dot personally in NJ and after two hours of my massage, she didn't want me to stop. She said it was one of the best massages she has ever had. 

She sent me on my first gig already and I massaged the singer of Judas Priest. He LOVED my hands so I am confident you too will enjoy my massage.

Massage in Orange County California

 

Hi there!  I’m Sherry, CMT, N.C.T.M.B and I currently reside behind the orange curtain in Orange County, California.  Since 1996, I have performed therapeutic massage in different locales; day spas, medical wellness centers, chiropractic offices, private homes, & businesses, and I seem to be able to blend in and perform effective massage therapy wherever I’m needed.  This is why I’ve decided to embark within this new venue Dr. Dot has so masterfully created.

 

My love for the human body began when attending UCI as a pre-med major.  I had to move on and work full-time so I held a corporate position for 14 years.  During that time, I found myself offering shoulder rubs to friends and family just because they were so stressed out as my personality reaches out to help others feel better.  A friend asked if I had ever thought about going to school for massage because I seemed to really make a difference in her muscles and attitude.  Back then, I didn’t even know massage therapy schools existed.  I later found myself attending California College of Physical Arts in Huntington Beach and began working with a 125 hours under my belt on the weekends for a local chiropractor.  After attending night school to finish my AA degree, I found myself wanting to learn more  not only to take care of friends and family, but wanted to branch and touch more lives.  I needed to continue my education in massage to offer additional modalities to patients and eventually personal clients.  In 2003, I was out-sourced from my full-time corporate position, went back to school to complete my 500 hour certificate program, and recently became a Nationally Certified Therapeutic Massage and Bodyworker.  I am primarily skilled in Contemporary Western techniques which include:

 

*      Deep Tissue Massage

*      Lymphatic Drainage

*      Pre-Natal Massage

*      Classic Swedish Massage

*      Sports Massage

*      Foot Reflexology

*      Psoas Release Techniques

*      Hot Stone Massage

*      Cupping Therapy

*      Ear Candling

*      Myofascial Release

*      Trigger Point Therapy

 

Music has also been a part of my life through many trials and tribulations.  My high school sweetheart and now husband introduced me to Ratt and Led Zeppelin while I was a total valley girl listening to Madonna and Depeche Mode.  Even though growing up, my family didn’t share their music loves, surprisingly, I enjoy all kinds!

 

Throughout the many years of being in the massage industry, I continue to take great pride in offering quality massages and look forward to helping you feel well and balanced.  Look me up next time you are in or heading to the OC! Email me: info@drdot.com and put "Sherry/Oc" in the subject line 🙂

 

Cheers,

Sherry

Help End A Bear Poaching Plague

America’s bears are facing a poaching plague. Increasing demand for traditional medicines using bear parts like gallbladders is fueling a lucrative black market — and poachers are targeting bears in the U.S.

Representatives Raul Grijalva (AZ) and John Campbell (CA) have introduced legislation that will help bears by banning the trade in gallbladders at the federal level. The Bear Protection Act will end a patchwork of state laws that create an enforcement nightmare and allows the illegal killing of bears to continue.

Tell your Representative to become a cosponsor of the Bear Protection Act today:
