Daniela Gonzalez
Licensed Massage Therapist
For over 15 years, Daniela has been a dedicated professional in the hospitality industry, and even after obtaining her Bachelor's in Business Management, she always felt a deeper calling. After navigating a challenging period in her life, Daniela was inspired by the incredible support she received. This experience ignited a passion to help others in a similar way, and she decided to pivot her career toward something more meaningful.
​
Daniela's unique approach blends the best of both worlds—Western science and the wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine. Her treatments, often described as gentle yet effective, focus on calming the nervous system and releasing fascia. She believes that true healing begins not with painful, deep work, but with activating the body's "rest and digest" mode. By prioritizing the parasympathetic nervous system, she helps clients achieve lasting relief and a deeper connection to their bodies.
​
More than just a massage therapist, Daniela creates a safe and supportive space for her clients to reset, both physically and mentally. Her goal is for you to leave feeling a greater sense of peace and more like yourself again, even after just one session. Your session will be a collaborative experience, where your comfort and well-being are always the top priority.

For Arnelle, real wellness is accessible and found in many things - a quiet melody, a moment of stillness, and in the recovery found in touch.
