Welcome to Bodywork with Raquel Ortega, CMT, where you'll experience a blend of massage techniques and energy practices to nurture your body and mind. As a trauma-informed, gender-affirming, and anti-racist/decolonial practitioner, I ensure a safe, inclusive space for all, including those of diverse body sizes, within our queer collective.

In today's busy world, self-care often takes a backseat. My journey into holistic healing, influenced by my Mexican-Indigenous-American heritage, began in my youth. My mama often treated injuries, nightmares, and anxiety with an intentional, light touch and songs of comfort that worked like spells. After a decade as a community organizer, I sought balance and coping mechanisms for daily stress. Bodywork became integral to my self-care routine, yet finding practitioners who embraced my identity and addressed my stress and trauma proved challenging.

As your bodyworker, I aim to guide you towards relaxation and self-adjustment. While I offer intentional touch and support, your body's wisdom drives our sessions, with your voice as a crucial component. Together, we embark on a collaborative journey focused on your comfort and healing.

If you're seeking a compassionate, empathetic bodyworker who respects your unique experiences, reach out for a free 10-minute consultation. Let's begin this transformative and restorative journey together.
