About
Rooted Bodywork Is the private massage therapy practice of Carla Gaskins-Nathan, LMT.
I’m Carla Gaskins-Nathan an experienced, New York State Licensed Massage Therapist.
As someone who is black, queer, and gender non-conforming I understand that perceptions around race, gender identity, weight, ability, age, illness, body modification and more can affect the ability to receive much-needed wellness and healthcare.
I believe that everyone should feel welcome, safe and comfortable during a treatment. I believe that through caring for ourselves we are able to fully engage with our life, work and communities. Using years of experience working with non-profits and paring it with my skills as a practitioner I facilitate workshops and speak to the mandate of self-care to a variety of audiences.
I earned my Associates of Applied Science in Massage Therapy at Queensborough Community College at the City University of New York (1000+ hours) and am certified in Prenatal massage.
I served as faculty at the Pacific College of Health Sciences .
