Our Approach to Wellbeing
At Luna Vaida, we believe true health comes from supporting the body so it can thrive in the world around us. While we help address existing symptoms, our ultimate goal is preventative care—teaching and guiding our community to maintain balance, reduce stress, and build resilience before issues arise.
Much of what is commonly called “healthcare” could more accurately be described as sick care, focused on treating problems after they appear rather than nurturing the body to prevent them. By understanding how stress, tension, and lifestyle habits impact your body, we empower you to take small, intentional steps toward long-term wellness.
Our approach emphasizes restorative, proactive care through massage, acupuncture, and mindful practices to help you feel supported, renewed, and equipped to navigate life’s challenges with ease.
At Luna Vaida, we see health not as the absence of symptoms, but as the ability to thrive in body, mind, and spirit.

Kiyah Zeerip, LMMT
Licensed Medical Massage Therapist
Kiyah brings a results focused, therapeutic approach to massage therapy, with an emphasis on helping clients move better, feel better, and find relief from pain and tension. A graduate of Blue Heron Academy, Kiyah brings more than 2½ years of hands on experience working as a massage therapist.
Her massage style combines smooth, gliding techniques with focused trigger point work to address areas of tension and restriction, improve range of motion, and provide therapeutic relief from pain and stress. She especially enjoys medical and therapeutic massage and loves seeing the real, tangible results her clients experience from their sessions.
Kiyah was drawn to massage therapy by the opportunity to help people become healthier in a natural way, a philosophy that fits beautifully with LunaVaida’s whole person approach to wellness.
Outside of the treatment room, Kiyah enjoys hunting, fishing, reading, and Jeep life. Her personal philosophy sums up her grounded, straightforward personality pretty perfectly: “Do no harm, take no bull.”
Marissa Whitney, LMT
Licensed Massage Therapist
My journey into massage therapy began during pregnancy, when receiving massage brought me both physical relief and emotional support. That experience opened my eyes to the healing power of touch and inspired me to help others feel cared for and connected to their bodies.
As a licensed massage therapist, I specialize in prenatal massage, lymphatic drainage, and medical massage. My approach is intuitive, therapeutic, and tailored to each client’s unique needs — whether they’re seeking pain relief, recovery support, or deep relaxation.
My goal is to create a calm, safe space where healing can happen — physically, emotionally, and energetically.
