From our patients
“Rebecca, simply put, is a healer. She is flexible in her approach to the work and meets your body where it is at in each moment. Her ability to listen energetically to the body’s needs makes each session meaningful. I leave our sessions feeling both relaxed and rejuvenated.”
“My life has been forever changed by Rebecca’s gifts. How can someone else know my root chakra is off when only I feel the warm air on my body in that area? Her energy clearing abilities and intuition are on-point. Let the healing begin!”
“Through working with Rebecca over the past few months, my life has changed for the better on a number of levels. Rebecca is present, direct, and kind. I experience her as very attuned to subtlety. Rebecca is able to understand and uproot problems through the body and energy pathways.”
“Rebecca was very attentive and attuned with my energy and also what my body was needing during our session together. I have some old injuries that she was cognizant of and she paid attention to some of the more painful areas to bring some relief. I felt rejuvenated and much more relaxed and aligned after seeing her.”
“Rebecca is not just a skilled and intuitive practitioner, but embodies the ancient teachings of these practices in all that she does. The space she holds feels personalized, safe and healing. Her experience, knowledge and broad range of practice areas are hard to find and I couldn't recommend her enough to anyone that is seeking care.”

Rebecca with Collective Wellness is a phenomenal community centered bodywork practitioner. I started seeing her for Thai massage for relaxation and physical alignment and now see her on a regular basis additionally for body and mind awareness and growth. I always leave sessions with Rebecca relaxed, hopeful and grounded. She knows so many techniques and is professional, reliable and provides a safe space for her clients.

Rebecca provides a warm, welcoming, safe space for the body and mind to unwind and process whatever may come up during session. In integrative sessions Rebecca use her wealth of knowledge to weave together different modalities to bring about relaxation and healing. Over the past year she has been pivotal in helping me(and my body) understand and process past pain and trauma. An incredible healer and lovely human indeed!

Rebecca is an intuitive, present, thoughtful and effective bodyworker I’ve been lucky to find. Her technique varies based on what’s needed, I’m always able to connect my mind, body, heart and spirit through a session with her and leave grounded and centered with wonderful insights on what’s going on for me or causing discomfort. She offers tea blends, intuitive cards, and compassionate and reflective conversation that puts me at ease and helps me get to a deeper level of clarity in myself for my intentions with any given session. Can’t recommend her more - she’s been an invaluable asset to my and my family’s support network ❤️

I've received a variety of treatments including Chi Nei Tsang, Thai massage, Gua sha, moxibustion and cupping and been able to process through multiple sessions to witness amazing internal and external growth. I strongly recommend Rebecca and setting up a longer-term plan of action. She is great at creating safe space while also leading a patient into the areas that need to be explored, released and incorporated!

The journey of healing and becoming your most present and best self is unique to each individual. I've been working with Rebecca for over 18 months now on my individual journey. She is experienced in a number of different disciplines, each one intended to help with different challenges her patients experience. My journey has utilized Chi Nei Tsang, Thai massage, Gua sha, moxibustion and cupping- each used for different purposes and to help me address challenges I have experienced over time. I would highly recommend working with Rebecca! When I started this work, I knew something didn't feel quite right with me and the tools I had tried before (like deep tissue massage) just weren't addressing the root causes. I dealt with chronic pain that I couldn't fix among other things. I also knew medicating myself forever wasn't the answer. She has helped me work through so many issues including the roots of what was causing my chronic pain. While the journey of healing takes time, effort, and energy- the other side of it is pretty darn incredible! If the idea of this work makes you a little nervous or uncertain- that's okay and pretty normal. Growth has a way of doing that to us. Just gently encourage yourself to get started and take it one step at a time- you deserve the chance to become your healthiest self!
