About Us
Why Choose The Studios at Summit
We are Friendly, We Promise
Ever had a massage from a rude, know-it-all therapist that just totally ruins the vibe?
Well…we have. And we are dedicated to never doing that to you.
We Value Honesty & Transparency
No one offers services they aren’t trained in.
No hidden fees.
No promises we can’t keep.
We Believe All Bodies Deserve A Massage
We will say that again. All Bodies. All body types, shapes, and sizes are welcome here. If you’re a human with a body, we would love to work with you.
We Customize Every Treatment
From how much you love scalp massage to how ticklish your feet are, we pay attention and customize your sessions around you. You were not assembled in a factory: why should your massage be?
We Value Peace & Quiet
Goodbye noisy, main-street clinic. Hello private sanctuary. The treatment rooms are tucked away in a quiet, peaceful office park, surrounded by other bodyworkers that value a calm and restful environment.
We Invest In Education
Did you know that Colorado does not require massage therapists to continue their education once licensed? #scary
Everyone on our team is invested in furthering our education/s. Many even teach and assist at seminars themselves.
We Give Back
A percentage of every massage is donated annually to Sheldrick Wilidlife Trust in Kenya - our favorite haven for orphaned Elephants and Rhinos.

Rachel
Founder, Licensed Massage Therapist
Bodywork Philosophy:
Therapists deserve the freedom to choose their niche and work within their zone of genius. Clients deserve transparency, honesty, and highly individualized care.
Me:
I’ve always been fascinated by the human body and passionate about helping people understand their own. I earned my BA in Exercise Physiology in 2012, completed my massage therapy training in 2017, and have been living the massage life ever since. Originally from the Pacific Northwest, I moved to Denver in 2016. True to my roots, coffee will always be my first love. I also enjoy jumping in puddles, whiskey (the drink and my dog), and spending time with my husband, Taylor.
The Vision:
My time in the industry has shown me that while massage is full of potential, it’s also deeply flawed. If I wanted to make a real living and a real impact, I had to build something different. That vision became The Studios — a quiet, safe, community-oriented space where independent bodyworkers can pursue their passions, earn what they’re worth, and serve clients who want something more intentional. It’s a place where therapists love what they do and clients can feel the difference.
