Why Amava?Consistent massage offers proven benefits not only for the well-being of our muscular structures, but also for regulating our nervous system. A balanced nervous system helps us navigate life with greater ease and stay closer to the present moment. While Amava Massage is not a traditional spa environment, my hope is that you leave your session feeling just as rejuvenated as you would after a day (or week) on vacation. Ready and able to take on life in all of its mental, physical, and emotional demands.
Massage can support pain relief while also helping the systems of your body communicate and function in greater harmony. Whether you choose a monthly membership at Amava Massage or prefer to schedule sessions as they fit into your life, I am here to customize and tailor your treatments to meet your needs. It is an honor to serve the Taos community and to offer massage with a holistic, grounded approach.

Owner/Bodywork Practitioner
I am an intuitive and integrative bodywork practitioner who uses the wisdom of my hands to listen to the layers of your bodies needs. By blending a handful of modalities together my aim is to answer ~ helping return your nervous system back to center and relieve both pain and inflammation from areas of tension tightness or injury. I have been a licensed massaged therapist since 2016 and received my training from Sacred Roots Massage in Missoula, Montana where I studied both Eastern and Western approaches to bodywork (including reiki, herbalism and Chinese fire cupping). I am currently working towards my graduate degree in clinical counseling at Southwestern College in Santa Fe, NM focusing on somatic and eco-based therapies. I believe that our attitude towards life starts with the peace and safety we feel in our bodies. The more we can build our capacity and relationship to it, the more access we have to creating vital abundant lives. I look forward to working with you!

Truly one of the most grounding experiences. The essence of the space is so peaceful and Annamarie's touch is truly intuitive. I've had a handful of massages from her and each time, it's always what I didn't know I needed. Such a grounding experience that centers me back into my body. So grateful this nourishing place exists. Definitely recommend if you're needing a high-quality massage, or needing a regular ritual of self-love!

I truly cannot say enough about annamarie - her touch is something special - her presence alone makes you feel so safe and very calming to your nervous system - her touch is unlike anything - her hands feel wise like she just knows where to go and how to move what needs to be moved in a very supportive way - she has helped me with chronic neck pain for a few years now and I feel so unbelievably thankful to have found her! You will not regret it and I can promise you are in the best of hands when getting work from her!
