  • Kelsey | Founder

    I’m a native Californian and experienced massage therapist; I’m passionate about all holistic methods of healing, nutrition, and positive living. I’m always striving for growth — both in and out of my work environment — and I started Spirit Spa as a natural evolution of that growth. After becoming a mother to my son, Ethan, I felt deeply called to give more to him and those around me. SPIRIT Spa has allowed me to uplift, mentor, and employ massage therapists, kindred spirits, and healers that I believe in, allowing them to pursue their desires while profiting from their unique gifts.

Testimonials

  • Wade C. | Regular Client

    “If you're able to get a massage once a month, you're doing better than most. If you're lucky enough to find someone who has the ability to listen to your body, even better — but if you can find a massage therapist who can heal with their voice as well as their sense of touch — then you're on your way to being 100 percent.”

  • Naomi Hong | Reservations Coordinator | Nobu Ryokan Malibu

    “I began using Kelsey’s massage services when I was a new concierge at the Nobu Ryokan Malibu. Our guests have always loved her and some have even asked for her specifically when they have returned. When she herself was unable to fulfill a request, she would always go out of her way to find someone else. I was very excited to start using her services again when she opened up Spirit Spa this year. Spirit Spa therapists are always professional, on time, and highly talented. Our guests spend quite a bit of money to stay with us and are well-traveled and enjoy privacy; Spirit Spa is the perfect vendor for us that fits our high-profile clientele. Kelsey’s response time and communication is prompt and clear. Nobu Ryokan Malibu looks forward to continuing our partnership in the busy year!”

  • Andy Chen | Manager | Nobu Ryokan Malibu

    “I really enjoy working with Kelsey because she makes booking easy and I know that my guests will be taken care of. I have had many returning guests request Kelsey by name and rave about her service. Kelsey is punctual, reliable, and self-sufficient, which makes my job easier as a hotel manager.”
