Meet Ava Nielson!

I graduated from IntelliTec College’s Massage Therapy program in 2019 and have been passionate about healing ever since. Even during the lockdown, I remained committed to expanding my knowledge and honing my skills. While also running a small graphic design business, I continued to practice massage on and off, always returning to the work that brings me the most fulfillment—helping people feel at ease in their bodies. For me, massage is more than just a service; it’s a way to create meaningful, restorative connections. I approach each session with intuition and presence, often closing my eyes to fully tune in to what your body needs. Every treatment is a personal journey that I take with my clients, and I consider it a privilege to be part of your path to wellness.
