Nearly 20 years of helping Bay Area clients feel more at home in their bodies.
I'm Cat Garcia, a Certified Massage Therapist (CAMTC #45801), artist, athlete, and Bay Area native. My approach draws on Filipino hilot and Hawaiian Lomi Lomi healing traditions, while weaving deep tissue, sports, and other therapeutic techniques into each session.
Every body is different, so I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all massage. I begin by talking about what you're experiencing, what you want from the session, and what your body needs that day.
As a rock climber, trail runner, and weight lifter, I understand what it's like to ask a lot of your body — and how valuable thoughtful recovery can be.
Every session is customized — I blend techniques based on what your body needs that day. Travel and full setup are included within my service area.
A customized therapeutic session combining techniques based on your body's needs — ideal for focused work or regular maintenance.
More time for focused therapeutic work while allowing your body to fully settle into relaxation. The best of both worlds.
A comprehensive full-body session with additional time for specific areas of tension — complete reset for body and mind.
Commit to feeling better — and save. Each series includes three sessions, tailored to your body's needs.
Tight from sitting at a desk?
Focused work on your neck, back, and hips to ease tension from long hours.
Training hard or recovering?
Targets sore, overworked muscles so you bounce back faster.
Stress in your neck and shoulders?
Slow, calming pressure to release tension and help you unwind.
Pregnant and need gentle care?
Eases aches and joint pain, with positioning that keeps you comfortable.
Tell me your goals and I'll build your session around them. No one-size-fits-all massage — ever.
“Cat was absolutely amazing. Her calm demeanor was very relaxing from the start. She made sure I was comfortable throughout and really took her time working the problem areas out.”
“Great communication, great pressure, nice technique!”
“Cat is amazing. So soothing and brought a wonderful energy with her. Thank you thank you!!”
A 10 × 10 ft space is recommended for the massage table setup. A living room, bedroom, or other quiet area in your home usually works perfectly. I bring the table and everything else needed.
Fresh sheets, a heated table, hot towels, calming music, and handcrafted organic cream — plus a brief intake conversation so the session is built around your goals that day.
I blend deep tissue, Swedish, trigger point therapy, Lomi Lomi, and sports-focused techniques. Your session is customized — there's no fixed routine.
Yes. Prenatal massage is available and tailored for pregnancy — it can help reduce anxiety and relieve muscle aches and joint pains. Mention it when you book so your session is set up accordingly.
I travel to San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda, San Leandro, Emeryville, Walnut Creek, Lafayette, Orinda, Moraga, El Cerrito, Albany, Castro Valley, San Rafael, San Mateo, Palo Alto, and surrounding cities — every session takes place in your home.
