Hi!
I’m Kristen, founder and sole practitioner at Sandpiper Studio. I offer women-focused therapeutic massage tailored to your body’s unique needs, with the goal of supporting relaxation, healing, and overall well-being. I look forward to being part of your wellness journey!
What does massage have to do with a sandpiper?
Well — they’re not exactly related. Sandpipers move along the shoreline with playful curiosity and joy, poking their beaks in the sand and chasing the waves. There’s a lightness to them that feels carefree and alive. My hope is that each session helps you reconnect with that same spirit — leaving you feeling relaxed, lighter, and a little more happy, curious, and playful.
Why Choose Me?
No Unnecessary Talking
Sometimes, you just need a moment to yourself. I love a good conversation, but that's not something I will initiate during y our session. I follow your lead.
Safe Space
Your massage session should feel like a place where you can fully relax and be your authentic self. Your comfort, boundaries, and well-being are always honored, and communication is encouraged so your session feels supportive, relaxing, and tailored to you. Here, the goal is simple: to offer a space where your body can unwind and your mind can settle.
Peace & Quiet
Goodbye, noisy clinics. Hello, suburban oasis. My studio is tucked away in a small, low-traffic, single-level office building so you can enjoy your massage in peace!
"Kristen is intuitive with her bodywork techniques. She explains her plan before getting started, answers any questions the client might have, and consistently checks in on comfort. I felt very safe and nurtured under her hands." -Jen M, St. Paul
Custom-Tailored Treatments
You're a one-of-a-kind individual, so why shouldn't your massage also be that way? I keep track of your preferences—so time is managed well each session.
Punctuality
Appointments always start and end on time, given you arrive 5-10 minutes early. My goal is to maximize your hands-on time. My hands don't leave your body until the clock hits your appointment end time.
