Originally from Charleston, SC, I moved to Nashville, TN, in 1997 to attend Belmont University, where I earned my BA in Music in 2001. My exploration of sound and healing soon led me to the world of massage and bodywork.
I began my journey at the Natural Health Institute (NHI) in 2003, where I studied massage, served as a resource coordinator, office administrator, and continuing education coordinator. After graduating from NHI in 2004, I became a licensed massage therapist (LMT) and began my practice at the NHI clinic. Over the next few years, I expanded my role at NHI by teaching massage curriculum and serving as the intern clinic co-director from 2007 to 2010. During this time, I also created the Sound Body Integration© class, blending my interests in sound, bodywork, and healing.
In 2010, I opened Nashville Orthopedic Massage, where I serve as owner, therapist, and educator. Over the past 20 years, I have continued to deepen my knowledge in a variety of modalities which allows me to provide a comprehensive and effective approach to manual therapy that meets the unique needs of each client.

I have a very clear 50/50 rule to my approach of bodywork. As your therapist, you hold me 50% accountable for providing you with the very highest quality of care and education. In turn, I hold you my client, 50% accountable for doing your suggested personal homework in between our sessions, to better further your therapeutic progression as well as empower you through education. The truth is you have a lot more time with “you” than I do!
When not working, I enjoy almost anything outdoors, arts, music, sports or science related. One of my favorite hobbies is playing and producing music with my friends. I am a natural percussionist and will gladly bang on any drum if given the opportunity. I look forward to meeting and working with you soon!

I'm Sarah, and my journey to becoming a massage therapist has been anything but traditional. I grew up in Chino, California, and spent nearly two decades as a devoted homemaker, before embarking on a new chapter in the U.S. Army, where I drove trucks in Iraq and Kuwait. Surprisingly, it was during those transformative years that I discovered my passion for massage therapy and decided to pursue this path.
In 2011, I took a leap toward my dream by enrolling at the Mind Body Institute (MBI) in Nashville, Tennessee. Since then, my commitment to holistic healing has shaped every step of my journey. In 2012, I became proficient in Connective Tissue Massage (CTM), and I’ve also achieved Master-level Reiki attunement in the Usui method, which helps me show up as my best self for every session. In 2016, I expanded my practice further by learning the traditional Northern Thai style of Thai Yoga Massage, adding a unique and restorative dimension to my work, and meshing well with my background in martial arts.
In 2024, I completed a rigorous 300-hour course in Synergetic Structural Integration, and I am thrilled to now offer this service. I can say this work has changed me personally in ways that now, I stand taller and engage with the world around me, not to mention becoming acutely attuned to my higher self!
