Bio


Sonia Beauchamp (aka: The Haleiwa Massage Muse)



Greetings everyone! Thank you so much for checking out my website. I wanted to provide a brief bio for those of you that are interested in finding out a little more...



Background: Originally from Atlanta, GA, I graduated from the 1999 Deep Tissue specialty program at the Atlanta School of Massage. I had the good fortune to study Lomilomi 'oluea with Kumu Daniel Fowler who traveled to Atlanta from Maui to teach his workshop. This was my first introduction to Hawaiian spiritual concepts, and it affected me profoundly. I felt a calling to relocate to the Hawaiian Islands in 2003 to learn more about Native Hawaiian culture and have resided and worked on the North Shore ever since.

I have a B.A. in Psychology and am also certified to teach meditation, breathwork, infant massage, and energy healing. Along with post-graduate training in anatomy, physiology, and orthopedic massage, I try to incorporate all of the above when working with clients at my massage therapy clinic. I completed my psychology thesis on the use of guided meditation/visualization to treat chronic pain. I also developed the Creative Abundance Method in order to support women who are actively trying to conceive.




Hobbies: Creative expression is important to me. When I'm not busy with my husband and two munchkins, I enjoy writing. I admire artists, performers, and those who aren't afraid to challenge cultural norms. I love nature, being creatively motivated, and living simply. Nothing makes me happier than hiking, camping, and backpacking (except maybe giving and receiving massage). I am a total adrenaline junkie, and once the kids get a little older, I hope to return to the skies. Meanwhile, you can find me bombing the hill in my neighborhood on a pair of rollerblades.
