Massage, Bodywork, Acupuncture & Yoga in Tamarindo
"When you feel balanced, you have health."
Massage & Bodywork
I offer acupuncture, massage, and personalized bodywork at a private clinic in Huacas, Costa Rica, serving clients from Tamarindo, Portreo, Playa Flamingo, Reserva Conchal and the surrounding area.
My approach is simple: listen to the body, and adapt each session to the individual. Whether you're looking to move more comfortably, recover from a skeletal or muscular injury, release tension, relax deeply, or simply reconnect with your body and breath, I create a supportive space to help you feel your best.
About Clare
I started yoga when I was just 8 years old, and it has been part of my life ever since. Coming from a small family in the United State’s Midwest , I never imagined I’d be celebrating 6 years of living in Costa Rica.
I trained in Thai Massage in Thailand, and I have continued studying and developing my understanding of bodywork, movement and traditional healing practices here in Costa Rica. I have also had the privilege of learning acupuncture under a teacher who became an important part of my journey and whose teachings I continue to carry with me.
Today, I enjoy working with people managing pain from skeletal or muscular injuries, stiffness and tension, and those who simply need time to slow down, and adust their cortisol levels.
I'm also a mom to a wonderful 2½-year-old son, so I understand how valuable it can be to have a little time to take care of yourself!
