Asheville Massage Therapy

About Me

Massage Therapist AllieNovaI was raised on a 33 acre farm on a Tennessee plateau. Coming from a family of nurses, I have always been surrounded by healing influences. From a very young age, I began to express an affinity for healing and an inexplicable love for nature.  

In 2005, I relocated to the beautiful mountains of western NC to go to massage school, thus embarking on my career as a natural healer. Upon arrival, I Instantly knew I was home! I was enamored with the people, the art, the music and the culture. Moving here has initiated an ever-growing adoration of the healing arts. I love the idea of natural healing, and have a pure respect for the body's wisdom and its innate ability to heal itself.

 

My Education & Experience...

Ama TierraI attended the North Carolina School of Natural Healing. This was a 10 month program in which I received 650 hours of training, exceeding the 500 hour requirement for this state.

After I graduated, I went to music festivals all around the country with my massage table. This is where I got my first actual experience outside of school...and it was tons of fun! I later moved to Costa Rica and massaged at a wellness center called the "Ama Tierra," a beautiful yoga retreat in the rain forest. (Pictured)

Since returning from Costa Rica I have been pursuing my own private practice, which is better than anything I could ask for.
I truly love it; working out of my home is a dream come true!
