I'm Carmen Marascalco
My Journey & Dream
In 2004, when I was 19, I moved to Virginia Beach, VA to attend The Cayce/Reilly School of Massotherapy. This was my first giant leap into the holistic approach to health, healing & well-being. I was introduced to a long list of modalities, which I have revisited to apply to my own health care over the last 17 years.
My passion, for working with women & especially the ones crossing the threshold of motherhood, really took root when I became a mother! My dream is to offer these tools for mental & physical support for all women, remembering how they carried me through my pain to wholeness.
I have over a decade of hands on experience using therapeutic techniques to help women of all ages including a focus on prenatal/postnatal massage & wellness. I would love the opportunity to work with you & your loved ones.
