About Francesca

Francesca Hayes has been practicing therapeutic massage in Cottonwood, Arizona for over a decade. Her work draws from a deep foundation in anatomy and physiology, combined with a genuine curiosity about how the body holds and releases tension.

After completing her massage therapy training at a nationally accredited program, Francesca pursued advanced certifications in myofascial release, craniosacral therapy, and Shiatsu — modalities that share a common thread: listening to the body rather than imposing on it. She holds an active Arizona LMT license and maintains continuing education requirements through the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB).

Francesca's approach is unhurried and collaborative. Sessions begin with a brief intake conversation — not a checklist — to understand what you're carrying and what kind of support would be most useful. Whether you're managing chronic pain, recovering from an injury, or simply need to decompress, the work is adapted to you.
