Featured Therapist Referral

Ava Halper
Greetings! My name is Ava. Born and raised in this beautiful valley, I feel extremely blessed to be afforded the opportunity to call this place home. Massage Therapy wasn't part of my life until 6 years ago. I was young, adventurous, and just go go go on my body. Then the inevitable happened, I finally received my first massage...
H O L Y S M O K E S !
The feeling of bliss, of lightness, release, and love shared through this modality is something to be shouted from the mountaintops.
I attended the Denver Integrative School of Massage Therapy, where I learned Western Practice and Thai Yoga Massage. In 2018, I worked diligently with local therapist and now "Salve Master", Tim Lafferty & his students to help generate a course for local bodyworkers that was offered as a continuing education class. Through this class, we honed in our skills and shared techniques. It was this experience that reinforced what I already knew deep down- which was that the culture around bodywork and the family it generates in a community through the art of healing touch is eternally special and very important.
My general focus is in deep tissue modalities and exercising the body through massage. That being said, I believe each session should be tailored for YOU- and what your body needs. Whether you want a gentle session with intention, or a Rock n’ Roll hour filled with elbows and myofascial release; it’s your time.
Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, skiing, live music, and playing hockey.
Regardless of where this life takes you, strive to be a better human than you were yesterday.
