My Story
Bobbi Taylor-Thomas, CA Cert. Massage Therapist #61425. Practicing massage therapy to heal, treat, and offer guidance.
Each massage is customized to the guest, their needs, and session goals. In 2008, I completed massage training in Arizona and my interest in the human body was forever transformed. This holistic approach complimented my formal education and love of science. My healing and knowledge increased as I became more aware of musculoskeletal abnormalities, compensations, and the physical/emotional effects all veering from one's health and wellness. I help "read" the body while incorporating multiple massage modalities. Individual needs are identified through an interview. Posture, musculoskeletal issues, repetitive motions, and medical history are complementary in determining the best therapy plan. This intuitive healing allows one to truly let go and heal from the inside.

Please visit Native Touch located @ 115 E. Hickory, Suite B in historic Lompoc to experience my new healing space.
Being raised in the 80's in northern Idaho, it was easy to notice different physical attributes and affect on one's daily life. People seemed to move fluidly, as long as they remained active and consumed moderate diets. The last time I spent with my grandpa, I was heartbroken to (silently) observe that he was unable to sit in a chair and touch the ground with his feet. How could this be? My strong and resilient Nez Perce, Grandpa Bug. He was a WWII & Korean War Veteran. This was unacceptable to me; I needed to learn more about the aging process and the body. At the time, I was not trained to identify people's movement patterns and postural deviations. I am NOW able to assist in increasing flexibility, decreasing pain, increasing circulation and relaxation through my safe therapeutic touch, and intuitive native healing to my guests.
I am a kind and passionate massage therapist from the great PNW, the Valley of the Butterflies & the waters of Tsceminicum. A strong native woman (Lakota & Nez Perce), mother, and proud retired Air Force wife dedicated to providing personalized therapeutic massage treatments for nearly a decade and a half. A heart-centered, therapeutic massage professional balancing my love of science and movement delivered by my intuitive healing hands. Arizona trained approach includes eastern and western philosophies. I produce a personalized massage treatment through history/intake forms, interviews, structural assessments, muscle testing, and SOAP notes to track your treatment plan. Guest's preferences, progress, goals, and self care are evaluated to continually address concerns causing both imbalance and energy blockages. Your journey awaits, let my spirit flutes guide you.
