Manisra Nava Alkalay was born in Phuket Island, Thailand. After finishing early education in Bangkok, she traveled all over the world, working in her family's international jewelry business. She moved to New York City in 1989, where she met her husband Ron. They soon yearned for a slower paced life and moved to Atlanta to start their family.
During her pregnancy, she experienced health issues that led her to investigate alternative therapies, including massage therapy. Having experienced the benefits first hand, she became passionate in her desire to help others in this same way. Throughout her life she was encouraged by many to evolve her intuitiveness and natural healing abilities. She longed to connect with her Thai roots and began her dream of giving back to her community through massage healing.
In 2001, Nava enrolled in Rising Spirit Institute of Natural Health in Atlanta (www.risingspiritinstitute.com) and became a certified licensed massage therapist. Her natural talents quickly blossomed following her studies and her services became highly regarded and frequently requested in massage centers, chiropractic offices, and executive offices including Home Depot Corporate Wellness. She further enhanced her hands-on healing abilities by becoming a Reiki Master.
Nava traveled back to Thailand and studied traditional Thai Massage Therapy at Wat Po Massage School (http://www.watpomassage.com/). She returned rejuvenated with a passion to share this unique experience with others.
Our mission is to enrich lives through her shared knowledge of traditional Thai massage, medicine and culture so that one may experience the many unique benefits including greater health and well-being.
Nava’s luminous spirit, personalized service and compassionate approach is reflected in her staff, with specialties including TuiNa Chinese bodywork, meditation, aromatherapy, and reflexology. She will be providing her talented team ongoing training in the sacred healing art of Thai Yoga Massage to continually bring her guests the best in Thai massage and healing services.
Therapists are healers, experts we meet along life’s journey that guide us to our inner workings.
