History

Established in 2004.

Located next door to Rainbow’s End coffee shop on Hwy 9, this site has been a healing space for over 20 years so is infused with positive energy. I came here as a client to receive massage every 2 weeks when I was in corporate telecommunications, and after receiving my massage certification in 2003, my therapists asked if I would be interested in maintaining the space. And that’s how it all began for me… I launched my private practice here, sharing space with an Ayruvedic practitioner, after working for chiropractors in Santa Cruz for 2 years. My personal business grew beyond my ability to support the community alone and I now have three other gifted therapists working with me under one roof & the umbrella of Massage of Boulder Creek. You are guaranteed to receive the best care possible from any of our theapists.

I got a magical massage from Karen and my fiancé got one from Mary. The location in and of itself is so beautiful, with the creek rushing by. I felt so relaxed and welcomed and easeful in all of my interactions with them. Karen was so helpful and prompt in getting back to me. Perhaps most wonderful: I had a frustrating head cold when I went in, and by that afternoon I was completely healthy. Karen cured me. Thanks you two!

Mary and Karen did the most amazing massage ever. My friend flew in from SoCal and I wanted to surprise her with a couples massage at the house. Karen and Mary showed up early and set up the tables before we arrived. I was surprised they did outcalls– but I am glad they were able to accommodate this request. The massage table was super comfy and nice and Mary and Karen make you feel very relaxed and calm. My massage was amazing, hands down the best I have ever had (although I have only had a couple). My friend however, is basically a massage addict and does it on a 2 times a month basis. Literally buys a package at massage envy, and she said that the massage we had was the best she has ever had, out of 100+. Karen listened to my requests and adjustments (as needed, but little feedback was required) and delivered a friggen awesome massage. I felt so relaxed and calm, it was almost like being a little wine-​buzzed. Awesome! Professional, clean, and most importantly, SUPER TALENTED. You cannot go wrong. Last thing, my shoulders and back still feel relaxed the next day.

I have been seeing Karen for several months now and it has been amazing. It is so nice to have finally found a massage therapist that can find and fix those problem areas. I have extensive injuries to my right arm which causes me constant pain, and Karen has done an amazing job of working on my arm and reducing the pain to a manageable level. The amount of pain reduction, relaxation, and stress reduction I have gotten from these massages can not be put into words. The treatment I am getting from Karen is allowing me to have a healthier and more active life. I hope to be seeing Karen for many years to come on a very regular basis.
Atmosphere: quiet, relaxing, calming, and natural. From the massage room you can see the river out the large windows which takes up the whole wall and you feel like you are being massaged in the middle of the woods. There is a fountain going and the sound of the water along with quiet tranquil music is very relaxing and calming.
Bathroom: yes, very nice, clean, and inviting.
Parking: right in front, parking lot, never had trouble finding a spot. I do commonly walk to my massages and home from my massage, or am picked up after my massage, but I have always seen empty spots in the parking lot or on the street.
Seating: there is a place to put your shoes right inside the door, seating outside as you wait, right inside the door to schedule an appointment or to take your shoes off, and 2 seats for lounging while waiting or after your massage. There is water and paper cups provided before and after your massage, as well as reading material.
Service: above and beyond, I love starting off my massage with the aromatherapy, the prices are very reasonable, scheduling or canceling an appointment is easy, and the whole experience is very relaxing and pleasant.

I have been seeing Goddess Karen at Massage of BC for a few months now, and I am SO GREATFUL to have found her! Rather than take medication (s) for medical issues, I prefer to go the bodywork route and I receive treatments on a regular basis. I have received SO many massages in my lifetime but Karen is the only therapist that has been able to provide medical massage (s) that are healing yet never painful. After seeing her for a few regular treatments, my chiropractor noticed the difference and commented on how my neck and shoulders were the best she has ever seen them in the past 6 years of seeing her! Karen is the real thing and has magical healing hands!
From the very first time I entered her treatment room, I immediately knew I was «home». The room is always warm and inviting, the view of the beautiful redwoods soothingly draw you in, the scents from her essential oils immediately sooth your soul and the sound of the in-​room water fountain will immediately put my mind and body at ease every single time that I walk in. Karen approaches each client with a warm, welcoming and nurturing kindness like I have never experienced before. She has a magnificent understanding of the human body, anatomy, spirit and soul and has a beautiful technique that treats them all! l! Although she asks if there are any areas that need focus, there is NEVER a need to respond as she literally find them ALL!!!
In sum, Karen truly cares about the overall health and well-​being of each and everyone of her clients. If you happen to book a massage but your needs require a few extra moments of her time, she will selflessly provide it as the clock is just a clock and your health is her priority. I love her.

I have been seeing Karen at Massage of BC for several years, and it’s like going home when I sink into her table.
She has a warmth and kindness that is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. She is intuitive, ever-​present and completely responsive to my communication – both verbal and non-​verbal. When she goes too hard or too repetitively in one area, all I have to do is give my head a slight shake, and she immediately responds by lightening her touch or moving her hands.
I feel so completely loved and safe when I’m with her. It’s like nothing you could ever experience in a place where they only perform massages for money. Karen truly cares about your health and well-​being, and it’s an incredibly selfless way of doing business. I just love her.

Where do I begin? I have been to Karen twice now and each time has been an amazing experience. She works with so much love and intention. It seems as though when her hands meet each muscle, her hands are saying «Hi, nice to meet you, how are you doing, and how can I help?» Out of all the massages I have received, Karen’s is the most holistic– my mind, body, and spirit walk away edified. I am! a client for life now

I’ve seen Karen several times now and each time I have experienced an incredible massage.
She always asks what area we need to focus on and her technique is incredible, at certain times during a massage it feels like she has grown 2 more arms and they are all working to heal my body! She also does this, «stir the pot» technique while doing the muscles under my shoulder blades (where I get the most tension/​knots) and it is The Cure!
I’ve had so many massages in my life but I’ve never bonded with the therapist the way that I have with Karen. She is totally disarming and such a lovely person. I always feel comfortable with her and the vibe at the studio is super relaxing and calm. Really appreciate having such a talented massage therapist so closeby.
Also, her services are very well priced. I always get either a 90min or 2hr from her b/​c it’s so affordable. I’ve paid twice the price for half the quality at so-​called «spa’s» Just thinking about a massage from her makes me want to book an appointment right now! Highly recommend!

I had an amazing massage by at Massage of Boulder Creek by Karen, on my last visit. She has a keen sense of where all of the kinks and stubborn areas were. Thanks for giving my muscles, my aching bones and my spirit some much needed relief and healing! I highly recommend their services for any body ailments you may have.

Karen is an excellent massage therapist who can always tell what needs fixing and has incredible strength to loosen up the really tight muscles. The office is lovely and the massage room I was in was beautiful with an amazing view of the forest and creek outside. My shoulders miss you Karen!

Debi was was waiting patiently for me as I ran up from a long day of working with kids. We were at Camp, and our director hired a couple of the ladies to come and do body work on our staff…
What a nice surprise!
Debi did wonderful work finding parts of my body that screamed for attention. Too bad I had to go right back to work again after!
Thanks again for your treatment and your advice.

Debi is the bomb. I have been seeing her for over a year now and does amazing bodywork. I go in for neck, shoulder and back pain hence my job and many car accidents (none my fault lol) over the years. I always feel so much better after my massage. I have heard Karen, the owner, is awesome too. totally recommend them and their prices are very reasonable.

I can’t speak more highly of these ladies… We have been multiple times and will go back forever more! I have seen Debi three times now and as I said to her, «Debi, where have you been all my massaged life?!» I have had what seems like hundreds of massages but with Debi, it’s massage perfection in combination with Reiki and trigger points. This is the holy grail of massages!
My friend has seen Mary and Karen and said the same things about them so we will officially be dedicated to these folks for as long as we all shall live.
I do also have to say that Karen (the owner) has the most spectacular personality. She is warm and funny.
Who could ask for anything more?!

SCIENCE MELDED WITH MAGIC!
Debbi is amazing! She didn’t just remove my pain, she found and treated the source of the pain (in one short session!). She explained to my why I was experiencing it, and made suggestions as to how I could prevent recurrences. I recommend Debbi without hesitation, and will visit her again if /​when the need arises. In the meantime, I am grateful to have found such healing power (knowledge) in an honest soul.
