Emily Rose Gross

Em (my parents called me Punky growing up - sometimes they still do!)

First, a vet…but then, a fashion designer! I had a lot of interests!

Reading, journaling, making/drinking coffee, yoga, hiking/nature walks

I have been to some cool places so it is hard to choose…I really love Mexico and have been there several times!

Again, sooo many to choose from. Top three: Japan, Iceland, New Zealand

Not super into sports, but I always liked going to baseball games with my dad growing up :)

Fall is probably my favorite season - my birthday is in September, I loved the start of the school year, the fall colors of course, the way the light tilts and the days are still a little warm but there is that crisp feeling in the air…yep, I love it!

No kids, but I do have two kitties who are very silly and special - Phantom (aka The Man) and Henry.

I’m into astrology - I’m a Virgo sun, Libra moon, Leo rising, for those who are also into it :)

I really appreciate the opportunity to connect with each client and work together towards the common goal of healing. I also love that there is always more to learn and experience in massage - the possibilities are endless!

I think my academic background in psychology gives me a unique perspective- I see the body in a way that is very connected to the mind. I think that even though massage is obviously a physical practice, it is also an emotional/energetic practice. I appreciate the ways in which massage benefits the nervous system and the mind/body as a whole.
