With more than 50 years in private practice, I have helped people of all ages heal quickly from accidents, sports injuries, TBI, TMJ, movement disabilities, birth traumas, and inadequate nutrition.
By aligning the body, recognizing and correcting faulty patterns, either calming or activating the nervous system, and building neuroplasticity, the body can fall back into a wonderful place. The fluids, fascia, muscles, bones and joints will move again in harmony.
Utilizing principles and techniques drawn from somatic movement therapies, craniosacral therapy, orthopedics, massage, exercise physiology, and nutrition
YOU WILL FEEL TOTALLY RENEWED AND REBORN!
I have years of training in multiple modalities as a modern dancer, a researcher, an educator, and an explorer that has led to becoming a Master Somatic Movement Therapist and Educator, a Body-Mind Centering® Senior Certified Teacher and Practitioner, a Moving for Life: Dance Exercise for Health® Certified Instructor, a Myofunctional Therapist for TMJ Pain, an Orthopedic Exercise Specialist, and an author and speaker.
I created Intelligent Massage® to encourage all the parts of you to move as a cohesive, fully functional, and expressive human being. My passion is to empower you to build the ultimate healthy body!
In my hands YOU WILL FEEL TOTALLY RENEWED AND REBORN!
Sara is extremely knowledgeable about the body and differentiates muscles, bones, ligaments, organs, and more, but more importantly, she is extremely kind, giving, and encouraging. She always knew what was causing my pain and how to relieve it. Once my scoliosis and discs degenerated beyond her help, we visited top surgeons together to consider the next step. I so appreciate the time she took to help me make that decision. Now, after surgery, I am standing upright and walking without a rolator doing all the things required of a single mom of an active seven year old. Christine DeAngelis Hi Sara, After one treatment of Intelligent Massage, I wanted to tell you that my body today has been the best it’s been in months. Much less pain and no stiffness! I swam for the first time in weeks and it flowed beautifully. I’m so grateful and happy I went to see you. Can’t wait til next time! Heartfelt thanks, Nelly
Sara came highly recommended for physio and muscular therapy following a lower back injury. She quickly determined the extent of my injury and began a comprehensive series of therapy treatments. I’m very appreciative of Sara’s commitment to my recovery and the expertise she demonstrated in our physio sessions. Sara also demonstrated a very holistic approach to my overall health and provided valuable advice and support. Doug Cornett, Banker
Sara Vogeler's course "A Revolutionary Approach to Pain Relief and Wellness" has been life-changing for me. Adopting the practice of monitoring my glucose levels is proving to be a game-changer. I am now thoroughly convinced that with the low-carb diet she recommended, coupled with regular exercise, I can triumph over my health challenges. I am wholeheartedly committed to attending the 6:00 AM (Pacific) class as often as possible.
Sara's method of teaching is not only logical but also incredibly easy to comprehend.A personal favorite takeaway for me has been the advice to avoid sweet potatoes, which I'm not fond of. It's refreshing to have a valid reason to bypass them, especially since they're often recommended in diet plans."

My Story I loved dancing from my earliest years, watching my parents together at parties, or swirling with my father around the dining room table. Dancing to music, exercising, moving my body is an elixir that cures all ills. It fills me with joy! It was logical to major in dance therapy in college to help others feel good inside. After a career as a modern dancer and choreographer, I focused on helping others move and feel better.
Now, after 50 years as a rehab specialist, health coach, trainer, and educator, I can tell you what works and what you need to do to feel excellent, healthy and strong. We all want to feel energized, excited about what we do, and physically capable. That’s different for everyone. For me, it means being able to dance, to jog a mile, to wake up feeling refreshed, to eat lots of organic greens and good protein, and to have people I love in my life. I'm blessed to be able to help others find this, too!
"I would like to say that Sara’s movement classes are fantastic!!! Great rhythm, clear instructions! One can experience her vast somatic background put to music like it’s party time. She is very welcoming which makes it personal and cozy to be online, even in her glamorous environment. Cardio in the most fun way. Simply fantastic sophisticated work out! I highly recommend!” --Lilia Angello, BMC
I first met Sara through her leadership of a supplementary study group of online Body-Mind Centering® courses taught by Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen. Being a long-time practitioner and certified teacher of Body-Mind Centering®, Sara is masterful in her approach as a teacher and group facilitator. She listens intently while drawing each one of us within the group to engage in ever-deepening ways with the material of experiential anatomy. Sara's knowledge comes from a vast experience as a dancer, teacher, and somatic movement therapist. Her knowledge is embodied, full of wisdom and play!
Recently I've been taking a high-intensity fitness class with Sara online. It has been incredible to have the structure and the challenge of these amazing classes. We are encouraged to modify if what is presented is too challenging physically. I feel more alert and able to negotiate challenges with my physical and mental health which have been a huge problem for quite some time! In this process of learning, I've lost 20 pounds, and feel more excited about challenging fears, and taking action to move forward in life! Coming from a professional dance background, I find these classes exhilarating, fun, and challenging! Join us!
--Andrew Olewine
