Ashley is a Retired International Champion Professional Equestrian. She combines her unique background both growing up and from her first career along with her firsthand knowledge of living with chronic pain along with her empathetic abilities to achieve that extraordinary results in her clients treatments. Ashley has already received her certifications in Neuromuscular Therapy, Myofacial Release, Manual Lymphatic Drainage, Sport Massage, Prenatal Therapeutic Massage, Medical Massage, Deep Tissue Therapy, Professional Cupping Techniques, Gua Sha Techniques, Master Reiki Practitioner, Spiritual Life Coaching and more. In her spare time she continues to educate and learn more techniques and modalities to further her knowledge and understanding in treating and helping her clients to achieve their individual treatment goals. Believing in the importance of having a healthy Mind, Body, and Soul along with her own personal interest in the more esoteric knowledge; she has became a Master in multiple types of Reiki and Certified In Spiritual Life Coaching. Ashley plans on soon returning to college part time to slowly change her Psychology Minor into a Masters Degree to one day help those healing from PTSD and survivors of Narcissistic Abuse. No matter if your goal is to simple relax to De-Stress or your goal is to heal from issues causing pain, discomfort hindering daily life activities or something else; a better and more committed therapist than Ashley is hard or even impossible to find.

Clients range from those seeking to improve their body’s function & wellness, athletes wanting to improve their performance, those recovering from injuries or surgeries, expecting mothers, those looking for reiki healing, and much more. Due to the wide array of certifications held by Ashley and her passion to help others; Riding Phoenix serves a ln equally wide array of clients.

Any time a client achieves their goals or have a huge break through in their body’s wellness is an event to be celebrated. In recent years helping those with scoliosis release deep muscles that were pulling their spine over and finally receiving the relief they deserve has been amazing. Just as much as those looking to align their chakras or easing pregnancy symptoms and athletes who preformed better or recovered quicker to those who just needed personal R&R have all been amazing events that RP was honored in being included in the process.

Make sure that the professional has the knowledge and training in the service. Certifications are a great way to potentially find out if the therapist has the qualifications. Also try to make sure that they not only have the professional qualifications but also the facility and choose to specialize in what you seek. For example we offer relaxation even though we specialize in improving wellness and body function such as recovering from injury or surgery or improving current performance but a spa that specializes in relaxation would be have the ability to offer a more relaxing site and potentially massage as well but the vice versa would not be the case.

Have a clear image of what you seeking and needing along with reasonable expectations. Make sure that who you contacting specializes in your needs and also educated. When it comes to massage therapy the client needs to have a clear reasonable mindset. Here are some points I believe the client should think about prior to seeking massage therapy. A therapist cannot reasonably expected to fix decades of issues that are found all over the body in just 60mins. So having clear cut goals with reasonable time expectations is crucal. If you have issues with pain and range of motion that you want help with; knowing that it cannot be addressed and hopefully fixed without some discomfort and even pain and most likely in just one session is important. Massage Therapy is an amazing tool to assist an individual in reclaiming their wellness and improve their quality of health but it takes time and effort in many cases. Therapist can help an individual avoid surgery and/or living a life in limiting pain but for it to truly help it takes a client also changing some behaviors at home between sessions. These days almost everyone has their schedules and booking available online so check this out for availability first. Save the contacting for questions to get information or questions that answers cannot be found online; professionals are working on fellow clients during the day and it can be difficult for them to take time out or use their precious moments between clients to answer questions from potential clients that easily can be found online. It isn’t that we don’t care, that’s far from the case; it is more that during the day we also need a break here and there so we can perform our jobs to the best of our ability for the client we are helping. Also it can be much harder to go back and forth with a client to get them booked when it can much easier done online. So save contacting for the more important questions such as if we are qualified and have experience in helping with what you are needing if you cannot find out the answer on our websites for example.
