My Story
Welcome, I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m Rochelle Newkirk, a licensed massage therapist and the owner of Listen to Your Body.
My approach to massage is intuitive, intentional, and centered around one simple belief: your body deserves to be listened to.
I believe massage is more than just working out muscle tension. It’s an opportunity to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and give your nervous system a chance to settle.
Whether you’re looking for deep relaxation, relief from persistent tension, or a more therapeutic approach, every session is thoughtfully customized to your body’s individual needs. I also offer CranioSacral Therapy for those interested in exploring a gentler approach to relaxation and bodywork.
I’m passionate about continuing my education, expanding my skills, and bringing new techniques into my practice so I can provide the most thoughtful care possible.
Being voted Best Massage in Baton Rouge 2026 has been an incredible honor, and I’m grateful to everyone who has trusted me with their care.
My goal is simple: to create a welcoming space where you can slow down, feel comfortable, and leave feeling more connected to yourself.
Your body is already guiding you. All you have to do is listen.
Outside of the treatment room, I’m someone who finds peace in nature, loves exploring new places, and believes there’s always something new to learn.
I’m passionate about continuing my education, exploring different approaches to bodywork, and finding ways to bring more intention into the care I provide.
Massage therapy has become more than a career for me. It’s something I genuinely love, and I’m grateful to have created a space where I can share that passion with others.
My approach continues to evolve with every new technique I learn and every client I work with. I’m especially drawn to the connection between the body and nervous system, and how intentional touch can create space for rest, relaxation, and a greater sense of well-being.
