Leala

Leala is a massage therapist at Bohemia Skin and Body and a California Massage Therapy Council certified massage therapist. She completed the 500-hour Massage Therapist Program at McKinnon Body Therapy Center between 2017 and 2019, covering deep tissue, myofascial release, Swedish massage, clinical assessment and ethics.

She offers sports massage, clinical deep tissue and Fascial Stretch Therapy, blended with intuitive touch. She holds a Level 1 Fascial Stretch Therapy Certification from the Stretch to Win Institute, dated 2024. She also taught mobility-focused classes as a barre instructor at Remedy Barre + Foam Rolling from 2020 to 2022, and she completed a 200-hour yoga teacher training at Urban Flow Yoga in 2013.

Sessions open with gentle rocking to assess the tissue, then joint traction and slow compression paired with joint mobilization, closing with a nourishing cream. The work aims to release tension and improve function, and she gives clients tools to support themselves between sessions.
