About Annie White

Licensed Massage Therapist #13683 | Certified Wellness Coach

Hi, I’m Annie White. I’ve been a licensed massage therapist for over 20 years, working in a wide range of settings—from spas to clinics—but private practice has always felt like home. Massage has been more than a career for me; it’s a reciprocal path of healing. I care for others while staying connected to my own well-being and purpose.

Over the years, I’ve trained in many modalities, but the ones that resonate most deeply are Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage and Hot-Stone. These techniques are not only my favorites to give, but the most effective I’ve found for delivering deep, restorative results.

In 2020, I expanded my practice to include wellness coaching, recognizing that true health isn’t just physical. It lives in our habits, thoughts, routines, and emotional landscapes. Coaching allows us to explore the patterns that shape your day—and by extension, your life.

Whether you're seeking relief through massage or clarity through conversation, I’d love to help you reconnect with what matters most. Let’s work together to build the life you want, one grounded, intentional step at a time.

What is Ashiatsu or Barefoot Massage?

Ashiatsu is a Barefoot Massage technique in which the therapist delivers medium to deep, broad, consistent pressure with feet and bodyweight, working with gravity, instead of against it. The pressure is modified to suit the individual needs of each client. In addition to barefoot work, a combination of hands-on techniques deemed appropriate by the therapist are used.

What is Hot-Stone Massage?

Hot-Stone Massage is a technique that utilizes warm, stone or ceramic tools to reduce muscle tension and relax the body. There are many different styles of Hot-Stone Massage. In my practice, ceramic stone tools are used for targeted, specific work, in addition to slow, compressive, gliding heat.


What is Hot-Ashiatsu?

Hot-Ashiatsu is a combination of Hot-Stone Massage and Barefoot work. Hot-Stones are used to warm and relax the muscles, to prepare for the deeper barefoot work. This luxurious service is deeply relaxing and very effective in reducing muscle tension and freeing restrictions.
