GINNY REEVES
OWNER
Licensed Massage Therapist
Hi, I’m Ginny, the owner of Recipero Massage & Wellness. Ever since I received my first massage in 2004, I have made it my life goal to give back to my clients what I experienced that day–a feeling of renewed health; mind, body, and spirit. I graduated from Kee Business College in Newport News, VA. in 2005 with studies in Massage Therapy. Following graduation, I obtained my certification through the National Certified Board of Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB) in both 2005 and 2009. After being a licensed therapist in three different states, I furthered my national certification process by passing the Massage and Bodywork Licensing Exam (MBLEX) in 2012.
I have been working in the wellness industry as a Licensed Massage Therapist for 17 years helping clients experience restorative mobility, manage their stress and uncover the root causes of their pain. I opened Recipero Massage and Wellness in 2014 and have successfully created a team and operation that positively impacts the health and wellness of my community. As a graduate of the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, I received a cutting edge education and training on holistic wellness and health coaching. I have also battled my own chronic illness for over a decade. I understand what it is like to be on a healing journey from both professional and personal standpoints. Through authenticity, my purpose is to be your supportive mentor who helps you feel your best through food and lifestyle changes and personalized one-on-one encouragement. From gentle understanding and thoughtful determination, I am passionate about helping you reach your goals through caring and professional guidance and accountability.
(Ginny has been a member of the American Massage Therapy Association since 2005. She is available by appointment only.)

Celia Ladner
Licensed Massage Therapist
Hello! My name is Celia and I am a lifelong resident of the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
I have 13 years experience in many areas of the medical field working as a Medical Assistant, however, I knew I wasn’t where I was truly meant to be. In June 2018, I decided to make that change and do what I have always known I was destined to do – Massage Therapy!
I recently graduated from Blue Cliff College Gulfport Campus in October 2019. I am a member of the National Technical Honor Society and received my licensure through the Mississippi State License Exam.
I am a huge advocate of self care and promote every aspect of it at any given chance. Through personally receiving routine massage and my daily lifestyle changes, I can’t express the way massage has changed my life forever. I love knowing I can now educate others about this and am now able to help others receive the benefits I received through massage and wellness.
I specialize in Swedish, Deep Tissue, Hot Stone Massage and ear candling. I look forward to applying these current techniques to all my clients.

Amanda Walley
Reiki Master/Sound Healing Practitioner/Certified Yoga Instructor
Hi, I’m Amanda and holistic wellness and health is my passion. On my own journey I had never known myself to be physically, emotionally, or energetically “well”. It was difficult for me to remain physically present in and through the body and this led me to my first yoga class in 2016. Physically embodying all parts of myself and discharging the negativity I had struggled with for so long was empowering and transformational. As a result, I became a certified yoga instructor to spread the love and power of movement based practices. Along the way I became curious about the influence of energy within the body and the subtle realms of what we can feel, how it can affect us negatively or positively, and how we can influence energy for our highest good. I am a Reiki Master and enjoy spreading the potent joy and relaxation of energy healing as it has impacted my own wellness journey. In Reiki sessions I like to incorporate singing bowls, guided meditations, and relaxation techniques to help clients release and fully let go. In addition to reiki and yoga, I am a student at MGCCC studying Massage Therapy.
Amanda is available for Reiki and Sound Healing sessions by appointment only.
