My journey
In 2012, while working 60-hour weeks in a restaurant in Ann Arbor, Michigan, I was introduced to yoga by a colleague. I immediately fell in love with the practice as I desperately needed to calm my mind and connect with my body.
During that time, I began offering shoulder rubs to other servers to help them de-stress during shifts. A friend noticed my natural talent and encouraged me to pursue formal training in massage therapy.
In 2015, I enrolled in an intensive 750-hour Massage Therapy program and completed it in 2016. Since then, I have been practicing as a professional massage therapist, offering in-home, in-villa, retreat, and destination wedding massage services.
As part of my mission to heal myself, I have continued to expand my repertoire of healing modalities. Having experienced anxiety and insomnia for many years, I discovered the power of mindfulness, meditation, and pranayama to manage my emotions and thoughts. These techniques have become part of my daily practice, and I feel inspired to share them with others through guided meditations, sound healing, and yin yoga sessions.
I love being of service to others and traveling. I enjoy discovering new perspectives, exploring cuisines, and experiencing cultural exchange. Since 2016, I have been living in beautiful Florence, Italy, fully fluent in Italian, which allows me to bridge cultural gaps for visitors and retreat leaders alike.
I am passionate about helping people feel grounded, relaxed, and cared for—whether through mobile massage in Tuscany villas, wellness retreats, or destination wedding experiences. I hope to inspire and support you on your journeys of self-love and mindful travel.

“I had my first massage with Brì last week, just a day before I started my trek on the Via Francigena from Siena - Rome. When I set out the next day (for 33 KM) my body felt great! And I pre-booked a lymphatic drianage massage upon my return! Counting the days…”

“OMG, Bri is just amazing. I have chronic pain and she knows exactly how and what to do, it’s not just a massage, there is so much love and healing here. I’m so happy I found this amazing place. Thank you Bri!”

“Honestly, the best massages I have ever gotten. My first appointment Brì made sure to ask my preferences and what I was looking for in a massage. Truly the best experience. Every time I get a massage from her I feel so unbelievably relaxed it’s as if I am in another world. I’ve been back many times since. I always go for a relaxing, medium pressure massage and she nails it every time. I sent my husband to her, he likes more deep tissue, and he also said she did a phenomenal job too. I truly never want to go to another massage therapist again.
