Ashley Battell

Licensed Massage Therapist

Ashley Battell began her holistic healthcare journey in 2017 after moving to Michigan with her family, and she hasn’t stopped learning (or moving!) since. In 2018, she completed her certifications in Clinical Nutrition and Herbology through Blue Heron Academy. Soon after, she became a Registered 200-Hour Yoga and Barre Instructor, where her love for guiding people through movement and breath truly blossomed. You’ll often find those elements woven into her massage techniques today.

Never one to sit still, Ashley continued expanding her skillset and in 2024 became a Certified Thai Massage Practitioner through the Simplified Yoga Method. She followed that with advanced training in both Traditional and Table Thai Massage in 2025. Her biggest dream came full circle when she graduated from the Great Lakes School of Massage in June 2025 and officially stepped into her role as a Licensed Massage Therapist.

Ashley’s layered background in movement, mindfulness, nutrition, and Thai bodywork gives her a unique, intuitive, and deeply grounding technique style. Her sessions are known for helping the body unwind while giving the nervous system space to breathe.

When she’s not helping others feel better in their bodies, Ashley is likely enjoying live music, dancing, traveling, yoga, weightlifting, kayaking, hiking, or skiing. She’s a proud wife and “mum” to a blended family that includes one stepson, two dogs, and two cats. Her family is currently building a homestead and dreaming of adding farm animals soon.

With a hippie heart, a free spirit, and a genuine love for people, Ashley brings warmth, joy, and compassion into every room — and every massage.
