Living Balanced Massage and Bodywork, Carlsbad

At Living Balanced Massage and Bodywork, licensed massage therapist Cari Machado eases stress and tension using a blend of Eastern and Western bodywork techniques. In fact, even her training combines East and West, as she completed coursework both at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in San Diego and at Shanghai's University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. While abroad she studied Tui Na, an ancient bodywork treatment that uses rolling, pressing, kneading, and brushing to alleviate injuries and chronic pain. She pairs this specialty with other modalities ranging from soothing Swedish style massage and myofascial release to cupping therapy.
