Gracie Hacking, LMT
Hello, I’m Gracie! I’m first and foremost a Christian, and after that I’m a WA state licensed massage therapist and owner of Saving Grace Bodywork. I’ve been practicing massage since graduating from Lake Washington Institute of Technology in 2016.
I learned a solid base of swedish and deep tissue massage there, and have continued to expand my tool belt of techniques and modalities, including Craniosacral Therapy (Upledger Institute), the Gillespie method (CFT), TMJ focused work, gua sha, myofascial release, cupping, trigger point therapy, and mobility work.
I believe that God created our body to know how it wants to heal and function, and my job is to help the body get there in the most efficient, effective, and least invasive way possible. I approach massage in searching for the root issue, not just addressing the symptoms, and then work with the body to ease into the pressure, working through the layers and addressing each of them. This lets the body open up and release, rather than just jabbing my elbow into the muscle and causing more stress.
Outside of work, you can find me training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, hiking, painting, studying nutrition, or spending time with friends and family.
Whether you’re looking to relax and calm down your nervous system, or want help addressing an injury, I’d love to see you and hope we’ll meet soon!
