Waterbird Massage
Welcome to Waterbird Massage!
I offer Therapeutic Bodywork in New Orleans, Louisiana. My work is rooted in traditional medicine, especially Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). I combine gentle, restorative techniques like assisted motion and gravity release, with firm techniques like Tui Na, Deep Tissue & Acupressure.
I am Reiki II attuned and aim to create a trauma-informed practice — this includes consent, communication, and working to release the nervous system to address root issues. I frequently work with Trans, Queer, pre-and post-natal, and recovering clients, and I welcome all body types.
I aim to support your overall healing journey with respect to your personal context. I provide ritual support for grief & emotional release when appropriate.
I am a believer in the transformative power of massage to support overall health and to address a wide range of issues—especially regular massage!

Thank you!

Testimonials:
“Yesterday I had this cathartic experience during a massage. I think I understand why [this style of massage] can be so helpful… It was deeply therapeutic and better than any therapy session or drug. I felt like all these stories I carry in my body were released & the space was a safe place to do that letting go.”
“Today I had tension released in places I didn’t know were possible. Anna put light pressure on my lymph nodes as a way of releasing tension and trauma — she also relieved me of my back pain. I highly recommend Waterbird.”
“It was a very moving experience for me. I appreciated the consult beforehand and the whole environment.”
