Becks shoe’s, we’ve been talking with clients about footwear. Waltzing into Becks shoes in Boulder Creek, was greeted by the sales associate Amber. Amber was very informative and had the answers to every question. We fitted my feet for the proper insole. Priced at $80, a bit skeptical. Later having a conversation with a client on how much their hiking performance improved with a insert purchase. If you are going to feel like your on top of the world, $80 is worth the investment. If your uncomfortable about parking in the front, there’s parking in behind the shoe store. Entrance to rear parking is between Redwood Mountain Spa and the Approach mindfully.

Let's talk comfort, and we will start from the very beginning.

To schedule: Text 707-223-1014, propose convenient day and time, for you. This is the direct line to contact me. We don't do artificial calendars here, not pretending to be booked. No need for a password, or credit card on file. This gives you the opportunity to insert helpful information like, you've been caring for the grandkids, or driving in from 17, with fight or flight arrhythmia.

The parking area: Entrance and exit is relatively safe, before, and after the massage. Typically there is plenty of parking. The lot is fairly level, paved, and crime free.

The Complex: In the shape of a lucky horse shoe, we have on the left, Michelle's Nails, VIP Hair, Tessa Knight CMP. Looking straight forward through the gazebo, The closed and emptied w**d store, Jamie Smoak Chiropractic. To the right we have Canu Therapies, and an available bathroom. Landscaped like an oasis, completed with palm trees, giant fern, succulents. We are always blooming at the Ben Lomond Business Center.

Tessa Knight CMP: Unless requested, you may arrive early as clients are typically scheduled 30 minutes apart. The office should be heated to somewhere in the 70's. We have a verbal intake. This gives me the chance to see how you hold your body, where you put your hands when you express yourself. The intake can trail off into, for instance, three days ago when you dropped your keys before work, the dog, the boss at work, then ants got into the trash, YOU ARE VALID, its all valid. As I wash my hands in the company restroom, your welcome to undress to your comforts level and rest yourself laying on the massage table, under the top sheet.

*Heated (optional) table topper. This cover is luxury and will not bunch underneath your back like lesser models.

*High end vinyl cover for sanitation.

*Arm extenders for width.

*Fitted Sheet (because no one likes laying on plastic.)

*Organic Wool, foot bolster, underneath a flat organic flannel sheet, (you now have two layers of fabric between you and the vinyl table cover.)

*Organic flannel flat sheet draped over you.

*Music may be special requested. Leaning towards Hertz focused tones to enhance the clients state.

* There is a button placed on the table for you to push, to alert that you are ready. I will always knock on the door and announce my entrance to confirm that you are on the table.

*We ask if the (memory foam) face cradle needs adjusting or if the table warmer is at an appropriate range. You are allowed to change your mind about either during the session. Your forehead should be tilted down slightly and there should be no kink or jamming in the neck. The table warmer can get too hot about 40 minutes in, do not hesitate to declare its intensity.

*The bodywork starts with compressions over the sheet. This is introducing to the client the quality of touch while the practitioner senses the story, your body has to tell. These first five minutes your nervous system is judging if you are in safe hands, this is where we establish the foundation of trust, and boundaries.

*Two hour sessions are recommended for return clients. Deep Bodywork is slow paced, uses gravity of the practitioners weight instead of force. Applying Esalen Massage to the work guarantees a unifying flow, and nurtured self. This is probably the deepest, mindful, and most compassionate bodywork you will find.

* Always ending the session on tIme, or clearly communicating in advance when it won't. There is no rush to jump off the table. There is no pressure for tips, to reschedule. We take cash, check, Venmo, IOU's, and farm fresh products.

*When exiting back onto Hwy 9 it's best to do so on the left hand side. Both exits are safe. The left side is easier to see.

*Available seven days a week at your convenience. Text 707-223-1014

Hopefully this doesn’t mean more regulation. I would have never gotten where I am today if I was continually told I wasn’t allowed to practice. Ask why I’m not a CMT, I’ll tell you about it over some tea.

Experience the Butterfly Effect: One Session for You, a Ripple for the World.

Ever notice how one small shift can change everything? In chaos theory, it’s the Butterfly Effect—the idea that a tiny flap of wings can eventually stir the air on the other side of the globe. With Tessa Knight CMP, we believe your wellness works the same way.
When you step onto the table, you aren't just "treating yourself." You are starting a chain reaction:
The First Ripple: Your Personal Reset.
A single session lowers your cortisol (stress hormone) and boosts serotonin and dopamine. You leave with less physical pain, sharper focus, and a quieter mind.
The Second Ripple: Your Inner Circle.
When you are less irritable and more present, your relationships thrive. Research shows massage increases oxytocin, the "bonding hormone," which promotes trust and deeper social connection with family and friends.
The Third Ripple: The Community.
A "happier individual" has an infinite effect on the people around them. Your newfound patience at the grocery store or your calm energy at work is contagious. By choosing to heal yourself, you bring a more balanced, empathetic version of yourself back into the community.
Small Action. Massive Impact.
When you find your balance, you help the world find its own.
Book Your Session Today and see how far your wings can reach.
