About Emily

My name is Emily Indiana Stevens, and my devotion to bodywork is profound. I am a Certified Massage Therapist, Ayurvedic Practitioner, Yoga Teacher, and IHSS Care Provider with comprehensive experience in home, spa, and clinical settings. As a child, I was a gymnast and dancer with a predisposition for intuitive touch, so I knew from an early age that bodywork was my fate.

My professional journey began in 2004 as a senior in high school when I asked my parents for a loan to become certified in massage therapy. Fast forward twenty-one years, and I have a thriving practice across four Northern California counties with niche expertise in spinal cord injuries, brain trauma, prenatal, post-partum, and end-of-life care.

I specialize in working with clients that have lifelong injuries and mobility issues because fourteen years ago my little brother was paralyzed. He passed away a year after his accident as a result of the many complications that followed. When he died, I shifted gears and started focusing my skills and energy into working with people with disabilities — because I had witnessed firsthand the suffering of someone incapable of moving their own body.

I travel long distances weekly in order to reach people in the comfort of their own spaces, many of whom are unlikely to experience bodywork otherwise. I assist them out of wheelchairs and onto massage tables. I meet them on their hospital beds or carry them down to the Earth. No matter which individualized treatment plan I implement, my role is to help them release their tense, day-to-day holding patterns so they may know their bodies without so much pain.

I have several long-standing clients; some have become like family. My profession isn't just my job — because my purpose lies in healing everyBODY.
