Sarah Reed
After suffering for over a decade with severe digestive challenges and already in her mid 30’s, Sarah tried Pilates on a whim “to get fit” and found it improved her well-being far beyond her hopes. Discovering physical transformation and a new empowered relationship to her body, pain, and healing, she went on to study yoga, massage and coaching.
As a teacher, Sarah brings her diverse skills as well as a compassion for and confidence in her clients. Having experienced personally the shift from a limiting belief she hopes to help her clients to also enjoy expanding horizons in terms of their physical potential and capacity. Turning 50 in 2023 Sarah feels stronger, more flexible and more capable in her body than ever before. She wants you to know she didn’t start out that way, that change can happen, and that all bodies are amazing!

Donell Allen
My name is Donell Allen; I am a Certified Neuromuscular Massage Therapist and have been practicing body work since 2017.
This is actually a third career for me. A while back, I had a unique experience of losing my job in administrative healthcare; of over 25 years. It was here that I needed to decide if I still had a passion for healthcare or try something totally new. After a year of exploration, I found bodywork and discovered that I still have a passion for healthcare, in a much different and more rewardarding capacity and that is to work directly with you. I truly enjoy helping people be in touch with their bodies and be part of a care team.
I received my training at the National Holistic Institute College of Massage Therapy and Health Education located in Emeryville, Ca. I use modalities such as Myofascial Therapy, Trigger Point, Reflexology, MFT, Swedish, Deep Tissue, Shiatsu, Pregnancy and more. I enjoyed and valued my time at NHI so much that I became an instructor to help give back and bring up more incredibile massage therapists into our society.
I own and operate my own business, Luna di Azul- Massage by Donell, located in Pleasant Hill as well as working at Stanly Ranch, in Napa California at the Hale House Wellness Center. If you would like to set up an appointment with me feel free to go to my website https://bodyworksites.com/donellallen and select “Contact Me” or text me at 925.766.7344
Thanks for visiting and I am looking forward to working with you.
Angelika Arseneau
I am Angelika Arseneau, owner of Skin Actions. I have been a licensed esthetician since 1987 receiving my initial training in Germany and have since worked and trained in Maine, Illinois, New York, Hawaii and California. I have apprenticed with well known and successful estheticians in Germany and the United States which made me an expert in the field of skin care. Eventually I become a teacher and trained many aspiring skin care professionals.
My dreams came true when I founded Skin Actions in 1999 concentrating on customized skin care and offering treatments for adult and adolescent acne, anti-aging, and helping the skin with elasticity and radiance.
I use the finest quality products that nourish the skin cells with vitamins, minerals and special enzymes. These enzymes stimulate other cells, creating a domino effect so that more cells absorb and use the new found protein thus changing the cell memory to a “perfect state”. Your skin is your largest organ and I will help you take care of it, naturally and effectively.
