Sacha Prescott – Rolfing and Structural Massage on Maui

Sacha is amazing! My husband and I signed up for the 10 part Rolfing series. I had never heard of Rolfing before (my husband read about it) and thus entered the whole experience with no expectations or ideas on what it was all about. It's been 3 months since that point and Rolfing has been one of the best experiences in body work that I've done so far. Being relatively healthy (mid 20s) people, I wasn't sure at first, what Rolfing could do for me. It did so much! I came to Sacha with minor back problems and wobbly ankles (I tend to roll out on my ankles a lot) and she was able to help me through both. My husband, is very flat-footed and his R leg turn out quite noticeable. She was able to straighten that out on the first try! Overall, I think the best thing we both got out of this experience was a sense of "body awareness." As part of the Rolfing, Sacha will teach you ways to stay in tune with your body to prevent aches and pains. She's helped me learned to walk with my shoulder and lengthened my stride. Before, I used to walk very heavily and thus become exhausted quickly. I also was very clumsy bc of my weak ankles. Today I find I can walk much longer and I don't feel the strain in my shins as much.

I would honestly say that Rolfing is not for everyone. It is a bit painful but nothing that a little breathing and concentration can't handle. However, if you're the type of person that can't handle deep tissue massage, then I would not recommend Rolfing for you. Also, remember that Rolfing can't fix EVERYTHING. So, you can always do a consult with Sacha to see if it'd be worth your time. Secondly, Rolfing is a commitment. Be sure to block out enough time for it bc the therapy works in sequence. Lastly, Rolfing is an active process which means you are involved in making the changes in your body. Sacha usually gave me homework to think about between the sessions. It was a way to engage my body to use the tissue that she worked to loosen so that the changes would be more long lasting.

In the end, I think Sacha is a wonderful person and therapist. She is funny, smart and super easy to get along with. She has amazingly strong hands and years of experience. I would recommend her even for a regular massage.

If you are looking for a therapist who knows how to go deep and rebalance the body you will love Sacha. Her touch is knowing, direct, professional and on point. She evaluates posture and understands the way a body works making her strokes right on. I love deep work and had a hard time finding therapists who will go deep enough until Sacha. Her office is warm and beautifully decorated away from noise and traffic. I recommend doing the whole ten series, you will have a new body.

I have had three private yoga lessons with Sacha over the past 6 months, to learn some Shadow Yoga, which has been really fun and challenging for me.

Today I had my first Rolfing session with her, and I think everyone out in Yelpville should know what a skilled, knowledgeable practitioner is Sacha.

She identified a twist in the muscles of my torso, hips and thighs; she worked comprehensively to change the pattern such that after an hour and fifteen minutes of her work, I walked out feeling better than I can remember feeling in over a year.
Rolfing is an incredible form of manual physical therapy when applied like she does!!

Literally the best bodywork I've ever received- and I'm a bodyworker who's received a lot of bodywork! Sacha has a gift for understanding the body and what will bring it into balance. While rolfing can be really intense and painful, I feel deep changes after only one session with Sacha. I'm definitely going back.
