Abigail Nace LMT, she/her

Abigail graduated from the Santa Fe School of Massage in 2018.  She was inspired to go into massage therapy from her own individual study of the body through dance education and her experiential connection to Somatics.  She engages intuitively and feels below her fingers to guide the body towards release.  She integrates techniques from Swedish massage, deep tissue, neuromuscular therapy, Thai massage, and myofascial release.

Abigail completed an extensive certification program in Neuromuscular therapy with Kathleen Leah Smith and studied Thai Massage with Gracielix Lopez.  Her background in concert dance spans over 25 years and has heavily influenced her understanding of the body.  Through her own personal experience with injury she has cultivated skill in injury recovery and prevention.  She has a deep understanding of functional movement principles stemming from her many years in modern dance that she brings into her massage practice.  Abigail works through a lens that integrates knowledge of alignment, range of motion health, and a connection between the emotions and the physical body.

Abigail believes deep listening and compassionate presence are essential for both client and practitioner to lay a foundation for healing.  She recognizes the courage it takes to show up for treatment!
