Meet Alesha

Hello! My name is

. I’m a mother to 4 kids ranging in age from 8-2 years old. After earning a Degree in Massage in 2012 from Cuyahoga Community College,prenatal massage I knew that I wanted to focus on prenatal/postpartum massage. I soon completed additional training from Nurturing the Mother, certifying in Prenatal/Postpartum Massage.  I was a mom to 1 little boy at the time, but I knew that pregnancy was my passion. I love seeing the changes in clients from when they walk in, to when they walk out. to voice what they need and does her best to provide a comforting, calm, purpose-focused, tailored session of massage.

Rest assured, Alesha is a licensed massage therapist that has met the exceptional standards of care that Nurtured Foundation is founded on.
