Meridian Yoga
Meridian Yoga Is a combination of two ancient healing forms. Chinese Medicine and Yoga. The two are very similar especially in their holistic approach to living. In a meridian yoga class, we combine their therapeutic aspects of internal physical exploration and healing.
Classes are geared toward every body, beginners welcome! Meridian Yoga classes give you an intro to these pathways or meridians of the body. These can be used to recognize patterns, go deeper in postures, as focus points, or as a guide to feeling and understanding the body. We discuss where they are, their physical and emotional properties, and how we can heal ourselves through movement and awareness.
We also cover acupressure & warm-up techniques that could be done every day for overall well-being. These techniques that can be done any time on or off the mat. These are all level classes with no experience of yoga or Chinese Medicine necessary.
I see myself as a student first and teach what I believe in and practice.
Let’s learn and grow together.
Massage + body work
My massage practice is the culmination of eight years of experience, integrating everything I've learned from working with others. My studies in massage equipped me with the tools to bring healing, while my exploration of Chinese Medicine provided a scientific foundation for what my intuition had always known.
In my practice, I've discovered that the source of pain is not always where it initially presents. By understanding the patterns and pathways of the body, known as meridians, I can offer clues and a key to healing the root cause of pain both distally and directly.
Specializing in providing relief for those in pain, I go beyond our sessions by offering personalized recommendations for yoga postures and acupressure points to work on at home. During our time together, I tailor the session to target and explore tensions using the pressure that you prefer and your body requests.
In every session, I incorporate an essential element: relaxation. I believe it to be a key ingredient, providing your body with the time and space to initiate its own healing process.

Kind words from past clients and students
“I have been seeing Olivia frequently for massage therapy and body work for more than 16 months. She has used multiple techniques to ease muscle tightness/soreness and has helped me recover from both chronic and acute injury and pain. At 45 years old, I feel the best I have in recent memory, and Olivia is a huge part of this achievement. I lead an active and adventurous lifestyle, and Olivia has enabled me to further expand my horizons and take on new challenges. I know that her attention to detail, creativity, and proactive research have significantly aided my physical progress, and it’s difficult to express my full appreciation and gratitude. The benefits of her work are both immediate and long-lasting...”
“I have had the privilege of working with Olivia both as a massage client and in yoga, and everything she does is a completely restorative experience. She is present and in sync with you, exudes positive and light energy, and is incredibly knowledgeable in what she does. I have always left her classes or sessions feeling renewed, connected, and calm. Whether it’s mindful breath work, deep restorative stretches, or advanced yoga sequences, Olivia is who you want leading you through it. She always seems genuinely grateful to have shared that time and space with you—and the feeling is mutual!”
“I have done many yoga classes and received many massages by Olivia and all I can say is WOW! This girl has healing hands and I’ve always walked out of every massage or class from her feeling refreshed and at peace. Olivia is such a great teacher and really takes the time to make sure everyone in her classes are having fun and getting what they need. Her voice is so calming and she always has a smile on her face. She has the best knowledge about what feels good to the body and it comes through in the massages she gives and the classes she teaches. Cannot recommend her enough!”
