the wildly essential way
In order to figure out what type of massage is right for you, we sit down before each appointment and chat about what you’re currently needing. From there, I cater a massage experience that’s unique to you and your body. My appointments range from 30-mins up to 2-hours and all add-ons are included.

the woman behind the hands
I was born and raised in Michigan where I graduated from Northern Michigan University as a Surgical Technologist. Soon after, I realized I wanted to be on the other side of healthcare, doing preventative work rather than reactive. So, I enrolled in the Marquette School of Therapeutic Massage and started working at a Chiropractic Clinic. There I learned endless amounts of knowledge about alternative, integrative and a full body approach to wellness - something that is ingrained in my lifestyle to this day.
After I went on a road trip across the country and fell in love with Montana, I moved to Bozeman to purse a more holistic lifestyle. It was here that I first opened up Wildly Essential and have loved what I do ever since.
words of praise
“I instantly felt comfortable with Whitney. She really knows how much pressure to use and what your body can endure to make you feel better. I’ve gone to her for numerous massages and have been 100% satisfied each and every time.”
