Therapeutic massage therapist with almost a decade of experience in the field of bodywork. Graduated from Cortiva Institute in 2014 with honors and continued on to an extended program where I honed my skills with understanding muscular structure. With a background in yoga, functional training, athletics, and a deep curiosity about the human body I couldn't think of a better career change than massage.


I continued directly into the work force after graduating and have been there full time working on building trust, strong relationships, and spreading the importance of self care. I have worked with all walks of life including ballerinas, athletes, moms to be, our elders and our youth. I love what I do. I hope you do to. Can't wait to meet you!

REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

by Sarah on Mar 19
Rachael is amazing! I've been seeing her for years now, and I keep coming back for good reason. She's the perfect combination of professional and personable — you feel completely at ease from the moment you walk in and the atmosphere she creates is genuinely relaxing. She's also flexible and willing to modify the massage if I request to focus on a particular area that session. I always leave feeling much better than when I came!. If you're looking for a massage therapist you can trust and stick with long-term, I can't recommend her enough.

I would highly recommend Rachael at Tidal Massage Therapy. My job is very physical and she works out all of my issues.

I love Rachael and she’s really improved my quality of life. I try to see her once a month.

The space is lovely, very calming! The massage was as advertised, very relaxing. I’ll definitely be returning, because I want to try the deep tissue massage as well.

Rachael is very friendly and has strong yet sensitive hands. Parking is easy. Her fees are reasonable. I plan to go back.

Had a wonderful experience with Rachel! She asked lots of questions about my health and problem areas. She was intuitive in her approach, and I felt much better when I left. Hope to see her regularly in the future.

Knowledgeable, great space that provided instant calm, worked through some intense trouble spots and regularly checked in on intensity knowing she was working through very tight areas and will definitely come back!

Convenient location for Fremont-Ballard-Phinney residents. Great deep tissue massage helped me recovery from a mystery shoulder issue. Looking forward to my next massage here!
