Ropana Wellness offers expert massage therapy, cupping, and infrared sauna treatments to relieve tight muscles, improve circulation, and support recovery.
Our personalized approach ensures your body gets the care it needs to feel restored and balanced. Kayla St. Marie, owner of Ropana Wellness, is a licensed massage therapist, certified personal trainer, and certified yoga teacher. Kayla was working in the health and wellness industry for five years prior to becoming a massage therapist. Her specialties are complementary health care modalities designed to help, not hinder, individuals. Kayla emphasizes that we rely on the body’s own ability to heal itself, instead of relying on pharmaceutical drug therapies. In ayurvedic literature "Ropana" translates to ‘healing wounds’ or ‘the ability to heal oneself'. Kayla is skilled at providing deep tissue techniques, neuromuscular therapy, assisted stretching and sports massage for pain relief and to help sore muscles recover faster. She works with all ages and every client receives an integrated and customized treatment plan that addresses their individual needs and treatment goals.
Take control of your day before it controls you.
Persistent upper back and shoulder tension is rarely just a temporary ache; it is the physical toll of our life’s repetitive demands. Whether your discomfort stems from hours of desk work, poor screen posture, frequent travel, or sports, your body accumulates stress around your shoulder blades and neck. When left unaddressed, these tight muscle groups lock into dysfunctional patterns, leading to chronic knots, decreased mobility, and a much higher risk of repetitive strain injuries.Targeted massage therapy breaks this cycle of discomfort by directly treating the root biomechanical stressors. By utilizing precise techniques to release deep trigger points and restore blood flow to sore muscles, this specialized care melts away stubborn tension while restoring your natural range of motion. Investing in focused bodywork does more than just relieve today's acute pain—it actively protects your muscles against future injury, helping you maintain a fluid, active, and pain-free lifestyle. So don't keep waiting for that spot you've been thinking will just go away.. it's been how long now..?
Whether you book a 30, 60, or 90min session, it is a start to feeling more like the pain-free version of you!

If getting off the couch requires a sound effect… we should probably talk.
Your body doesn’t always need more stretching, more pushing through, or “just getting used to it.” Sometimes it needs a little attention.
Massage can help reduce built-up tension, improve mobility, and give your body a chance to reset.
Consider this your formal notice.
Book the massage. Your body has already complained. 😅
You don’t have to commit to an hour—or more—to take care of yourself.
Sometimes you have 30 minutes. Sometimes you have 90. Sometimes life is chaotic and squeezing anything in feels like a win.
That’s okay.
A 30-minute focused treatment can still give your body some much-needed attention, especially when we’re intentional about what we’re working on.
At Ropana, we’re not here to add another obligation to your already-full schedule.
We’ll come alongside your life—not ask you to rearrange it for us.
Come for the time you have.
We’ll make it count.

Your lymphatic system doesn’t have a pump. So how does lymph move? 👀
Unlike your cardiovascular system, lymph doesn’t have one central pump pushing it through the body. Instead, lymph movement is influenced by muscle contractions, breathing, body movement, and pressure changes.
And that’s exactly why MLD is so different from traditional massage.
It’s not about more pressure. It’s about the right pressure, direction, and technique.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage uses gentle, rhythmic strokes that work with the anatomy and natural pathways of the lymphatic system.
Light. Slow. Specific. ✨
If you’ve been curious about MLD, this is your sign to experience it for yourself.

Sometimes your body isn’t asking for more stretching, more pushing through, or another temporary fix.
It’s asking you to pay attention.
That recurring knot.
The stiffness that keeps coming back.
The shoulder that never quite feels right.
The tension you’ve learned to live with.
Your body gives you clues long before it forces you to stop.
At Ropana, we look beyond the place that hurts to understand the bigger picture—how you move, where you’re compensating, and what may be contributing to the pattern.
Because feeling better isn’t just about chasing the symptom.
It’s about understanding your body. 🤍

Not everything you hear about lymphatic drainage is true.
We believe in education over hype. If you’ve been dealing with swelling that won’t go away, a feeling of heaviness, or recovery that seems slower than it should, your lymphatic system may need support.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage isn’t about “detoxing.” It’s an evidence-informed treatment that can help manage swelling associated with surgery, injury, lymphedema, and other conditions when it’s clinically appropriate.
At Ropana, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all care. We start by understanding why your body is responding the way it is, then create a treatment plan that’s right for you.
Because real healing starts with addressing the root cause—not chasing symptoms.
