Our personalized approach ensures your body gets the care it needs to feel restored and balanced. Kayla St. Marie, owner of Ropana Wellness, is a licensed massage therapist, certified personal trainer, and certified yoga teacher. Kayla was working in the health and wellness industry for five years prior to becoming a massage therapist. Her specialties are complementary health care modalities designed to help, not hinder, individuals.

In ayurvedic literature "Ropana" translates to ‘healing wounds’ or ‘the ability to heal oneself'. Kayla is skilled at providing deep tissue techniques, neuromuscular therapy, assisted stretching and sports massage for pain relief and to help sore muscles recover faster. She works with all ages and every client receives an integrated and customized treatment plan that addresses their individual needs and treatment goals.

Most people think it’s just “sciatica.”
Or that their muscles are simply tight.

But pain that keeps coming back usually isn’t random —
it’s your body adapting to an underlying pattern.

When the hip stabilizers aren’t working well, the piriformis often overcompensates…
which can irritate the sciatic nerve and create that deep, stubborn ache so many people struggle with.

That’s why quick fixes like stretching or temporary relief don’t last.

At Ropana, we focus on why your body is holding tension in the first place — restoring balance, reducing nerve compression, and helping your system feel stable again.

Because real relief isn’t just about feeling looser for a few days…
it’s about helping your body move comfortably long-term.

✨ If this sounds familiar, your pain may be more treatable than you think. Save this post if you’ve ever been told you “just have sciatica.”

Most people don’t come in because they want a massage…
They come in because something hurts.

At Ropana Wellness, the most common issues we see every week:

• Tight neck + shoulders from desk work
• Low back pain from long hours sitting or lifting
• Headaches linked to muscle tension
• Hip tightness from stress + posture patterns
• Chronic knots that never fully release

Massage therapy isn’t just relaxation — it helps by:

✔️ Improving circulation to sore tissues
✔️ Releasing protective muscle guarding
✔️ Reducing inflammation + nerve irritation
✔️ Resetting the nervous system out of “stress mode”
✔️ Restoring natural movement patterns

When your body holds tension long enough, it stops feeling temporary — and starts feeling normal.
That’s usually when people finally book.

You don’t have to wait until the pain is loud.

✨ Consistent care helps you stay ahead of it.

Consistency is where healing actually happens.

These packages aren’t about “treating yourself.”
They’re about giving your body the regular support it needs to function well — especially when life, work, training, and stress don’t slow down.

Each 60-minute session includes a complimentary 15-minute infrared sauna to help improve circulation, soften tissue response, and transition your nervous system out of fight-or-flight before treatment even begins.

Choose the level of care your body has been asking for:
🌿 Harmony — maintain
⚖️ Balance — correct patterns
✨ Serenity — commit to real change

Your body doesn’t need more intensity.
It needs consistency.

Start feeling the difference consistency makes.
📅 Ask about packages at your next visit or call to enroll.

By Wednesday, most people aren’t relaxed… they’re running on tension and caffeine.

That’s exactly why we added Wednesday evening hours with Liz (5–9 PM).

This is your chance to:
✔️ Release the neck & shoulder buildup from the workday
✔️ Reset your nervous system before the rest of the week
✔️ Stop waiting until you’re in pain to do something about it

Come in stressed. Leave clear-headed.

Craniosacral Therapy is one of the most gentle—and powerful—ways to support your nervous system.

When your body feels stuck, overwhelmed, or constantly “on,” this work helps create space for regulation, release, and repair.

Not force.
Not fixing.
Just support—so your body can do what it already knows how to do.

Massage Isn’t a Luxury. It’s Preventative Care.

Most people book massage when they’re already hurting.
But the real magic happens when massage becomes consistent. This isn’t about one session feeling good.
It’s about your body learning a new baseline.

At Ropana Wellness, we don’t rush, overwork tissue, or treat symptoms in isolation.
We support your whole system—so healing actually sticks.

Your body works for you every day.
Care for it like it matters.

Now offering Clinical Lymphatic Model Sessions 🤍

Manual Lymphatic Drainage is not relaxation massage—and for many people, it’s the missing piece when the body feels swollen, inflamed, run down, or “stuck,” even when everything else looks normal.

To continue expanding lymphatic care at Ropana Wellness, we’re offering a limited number of 30-minute Clinical Model Sessions with Mikenna, a therapist with advanced training and a strong clinical background in lymphatic support.

These sessions are intentionally shorter and offered at a reduced rate to support education, feedback, and introduction to lymphatic care—while maintaining the integrity of the work.

✨ Ideal for:
• Post-illness or immune support
• Swelling, inflammation, or heaviness
• Clients new to lymphatic drainage

⏳ Limited availability | Once per client
