Brenda Zepeda didn't plan on becoming a massage therapist. She became one after years of carrying pain she didn't have words for — and finding, eventually, that her hands were where healing lived.
Today she runs Lakshmi Massage in San Miguel de Allende, working with obsidian hot stone therapy, herbal pindas, postpartum hip-closure massage, and singing bowl sound healing — techniques rooted in a family lineage of traditional Mexican medicine going back generations.
Her philosophy is simple and hard-earned: "I give each massage with the intention of giving it as if I were giving it to myself. Because I am you and you are me."
