Greetings!
MEET YOUR THERAPIST...
My Story
​My name is Danielle Botterill, licensed massage therapist and owner of Aligned Therapeutic Massage.
​
I have always been fascinated with the intricate workings of the human body and its remarkable ability to heal. My own healing journey began prior to being a massage therapist when I was working as a health care professional in the medical field. In the beginning of my career,
I developed some health issues that healthcare professionals were not capable of resolving. This experience acted as a powerful catalyst for a new interest in holistic healing and alternative health modalities. I decided to take my health back into my own hands by delving into years of research, learning, and self-application of alternative healing modalities; one of those being bodywork and massage. I eventually enrolled in the Crestone Healing Arts Center for massage and graduated in 2022.
Throughout my journey, I have come to understand that true health requires a multi-faceted approach that addresses not only the physical body, but also the emotional, mental, and spiritual bodies that are all interconnected and play a vital role in overall health and wellbeing.
What I have discovered on my path has created a powerful foundation for the knowledge and skillset that I am able to offer to my clients.
​
In my spare time, you can find me playing outside in my home away from home–the mountains, where I enjoy hiking, foraging, rock hounding, and skiing. I have a deep and meaningful relationship with the Divine/God/Universe/Source from which I derive my insight, my passion, and my life's purpose and direction from.
I enjoy reading, writing poetry, and creating art.
I prioritize self-care with regular exercise, healthy eating practices, mindfulness, gratitude, and meditation.
My Approach
I am here to offer my unique perspective on the body, to hold space for body and mind, and to assist you in releasing whatever is holding you back.
I believe in the importance of clear and open communication to help me better help you. It is my belief that all healing starts with active listening, intentional presence, respect, and safety.
In order for your body and nervous system to feel safe enough to release while on the massage table, I prioritize building a meaningful connection with you from the very start.
Most people come to me in pain. My goal is to assist you in decreasing pain, releasing restrictions, and helping to facilitate an increase in overall vitality. My approach is both therapeutic and relaxing. I am intuitively guided to melt into the muscles at just the right depth and pressure to affect deep change in the tissues.
I blend more specific and focused work in areas of held tension with techniques that sooth and relax the nervous system in order to maximize the body's ability to release.
I look forward to collaborating with you on your wellness journey!
