massage and bodywork
Alex Rix is a graduate of Panacea Holistic Institute's 555 hour Massage and Healing Arts Program in 2020.
Over the last five years, Alex has established her own practice at Sacred Roots Holistic Healing, been the resident Massage Therapist at Stomping Ground LA, and was on faculty and Director of the Student Clinic at Panacea Holistic Institute.
Rix specializes in Circulatory Massage, Shiatsu, Sports Massage, Deep Tissue, Craniosacral, and Massage Cupping. Her practice also integrates aspects of Sound Therapy, Aromatherapy, and Ayurveda.
As a dancer, athlete, and Massage Therapist, Alex is deeply in tune with the needs of highly active bodies. Pulling from her own physical experience, Rix focuses on more specific areas of the body, while tailoring each session to the individual client.
She provides sliding scale rates for the dance community to help cultivate sustainable self care practices for the dancing body.
As a massage therapist and movement artist my main inspiration has always been the human body. With my knowledge of how the body functions on small and large scale, through movement and stillness, I strive to assist in each individual’s self-healing. Being able to provide a service that opens space in the body and the mind to grow and heal. My work as a Massage Therapist mirrors my work as a dance artist. Approaching each session with curiosity and creativity, I create a personalized massage sequence for each client. Just as I would a dance for an audience.
Getting into the flow of a session is similar to getting into the flow of a dance. Viewing each session and individual client through an artistic lens allows me to use my expertise in the fields of dance and massage to create a personalized sequence and experience for each.
