We are Theresa and Rebecca: Best friends, soul mates, platonic life partners, and the owners of Zen River Spa!
We are on this adventure together not only because we love this line of work and everything that comes with it, but because we agree on everything. Literally everything. It’s kind of weird. But it makes for an amazing business partnership. When we work together new ideas, solutions, and inspiration flood in effortlessly. We can’t imagine a more rewarding or enjoyable partnership or career path than the one we are creating together.
We are building this business on the foundation of an 8-year friendship that has always been rooted in trust and respect—a friendship that began in a home school coop where our children became best friends! We have walked each other through some deep traumas, even deeper healing, and also through some of the greatest joys and triumphs of our lives. And we know that Zen River is set to be our most amazing journey yet!
We are so happy that you are here with us and we seriously can’t wait to show you all the things we have been working on this summer! Stay tuned!
Rebecca Be (left) and Sister
I am Rebecca, a single mother of many children and dogs, first time business owner, and the founder of Zen River Spa.
I founded Zen River Spa with the intention of creating a body-positive, queer-friendly, holistic massage studio where every person feels welcome and everyone walks away feeling respected and honored for who they are and where they are on their journey. This is the foundation of our business and the driving intention behind every decision we make.
We use candlelight, meditative music, aromatherapy, and deluxe linens to create an ambient atmosphere that supports every aspect of your mind, body, and spirit.
I truly believe that every person deserves this level of care!
Theresa
I’m a single mom of two now adults and one teen, a lover of all things nature! If I'm not at the spa, I'm either hanging out with my kids, volunteering somewhere, or I'm in the woods.
Light Touch Energetic Rebalancing is my specialty at Zen River Spa. I was doing energy work long before I knew what energy work was (as is true for most people, I think). I've honed my skills and I'm so excited to offer a relaxing, energetic healing experience for my clients.
I love everything about my job! Conversations with our clients, working through emotions with people, and putting them to sleep by barely touching them.
Vickie
I'm Victoria Valadez, an LMT who firmly believe in the innate healing power of the human body. Over the years I’ve dabbled in an array of holistic healing hobbies; some of my favorites include herbalism, reiki healing, and yoga. I value these practices because they help provide the ideal environment for the body to heal. Eventually, this path led me to massage therapy, as it is another way to create an environment to support, and aid that healing process. As I learned about the physical, emotional and spiritual benefits of massage therapy, it became clear to me that massage was a viable healing tool that I wanted to use to help others.
