ABOUT RIKI

Riki was born and raised in Germany and has been living in Mexico since 2001. She practices healthcare and hands-on bodywork since 14 years and studied and keeps studying extensively Structural Integration, also known as Rolfing, different massage techniques, Jin Shin Jyutsu which is the predecessor of acupuncture, osteopathic visceral manipulation, trigger point therapy, biomagnetism, cold laser therapy, body awareness, movement and functional anatomy.

Her approach to healing is based on the fact that any illness is always an imbalance of the mental, emotional and physical aspects of our being. Any physical symptom is but a pointer to deeper underlying disharmonies. She is deeply interested in all aspects of human existence, the intricate connections within ourselves, the meaning of our life paths, our conditionings and circumstances we were born into which all provide the general frame for learning, experiencing, accepting, transforming and loving.

Riki is a practical, well grounded and optimistic person who enjoys helping other people to heal and gain a deeper understanding of whatever the problem / project might be right now in their lifes.

Best body work I’ve had in 13 years!

Riki is exceptionally talented and skilled at her craft of Rolfing, massage and holistic body care. Hands down one of the most skilled body workers I’ve encountered (and I’ve experienced hundreds of body work sessions)!

You will not be disappointed with Riki’s work. You will leave feeling better, nourished and deeply relaxed.

Thank you for sharing your gifts and skills Riki! My body is very happy and thankful for your work!

Coming Back for more. Uli your the best You gave me back my happiness.

First day I questioned even attempting going up the spiral staircase and then how the heck was I going to get back down-I was in chronic pain and desperate as I had torn something in the back of my knee a few months earlier which made my leg feel heavy and numb in a painful way and left it very unstable side to side. This was In addition to having 10-15 years of worsening sciatica all complications of a torn then finally repaired rotator cuff that had destroyed my back. I Was A Mess - Not Sleeping and in pain and worrying about becoming handicapped and immobile in my early 60’s. Uli took a lot of time evaluating my posture, watching me walk and accessing my nightmare. Then she started working her magic.
I believe we have had 6-7 sessions, my posture has improved a bit, my stance is more firmly set my feet are less constricted and has released tension from my knee and miraculously less fasciitis and pain to the touch in my legs and hips. She worked on loosening up my feet and ankles and has brought me back my happiness. I’m glad to be back in Sayulita. I haven’t seen Uli for 60 days and have spent most of that time essentially pain free. A first in over 15 years. Don’t give up the fight - Call Uli.

VISIT ULRIKE!

I have been visiting Sayulita since 2013 to recuperate from very laborious seasonal work and often times my body is in sad shape. This year my body said, "Meh, done then proceeded to lock up in a few areas making it almost impossible to stand up, walk or lay down!" After a sleepless night I began emailing locals around 6am. Ulrike got back to me right away and I was lying on her table by 9am being worked on!

Her business is located smack dab in the middle of town with one of the most beautiful patios around. The natural sounds are unbelievable. No music needed here. Ulrike is very polite, knowledgeable and makes you feel right at home as soon as you arrive. Not only is she competent she has quite a few modalities (tricks) up her sleeve. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER. I walked in crooked and left upright (still a little crooked but slept like a baby that night). We discussed some reasons physically as well as spiritually that my body may be doing what it was doing.... I am back in Colorado and working on so many issues rather than just my body that NEVER would have been seen had I not met up with Ulrike. I even went back the remaining days I was visiting.

Incredible healing with cold laser therapy.

Riki saw a horrible wound on my leg and suggested she work with her laser to promote faster healing. I had been bitten by a dog and even after many doctor visits the would was not healing. Over 10 days Riki and her magic laser healed my wounds. One was very deep and very large. A chunk of my leg was missing. It had minimal healing progression in 3 weeks. In two days I saw a change from her treatment and bite became smaller and began to close up. The sessions where short but I can say with all confidence Riki saved me months of waiting for this to heal on its own. I only have a small scab now and not a deep disgusting wound that is open to infection. I will continue with these sessions so the scar will be minimal and also book longer sessions for other skin problems. I am so thankful she suggested this and helped me.
Riki is a gifted and knowledgeable therapist and I am greatful to her. I was lucky she saw me and offered her help.

Riki is highly skilled and continues to progress her craft

I have enjoyed post surf massages from Riki over the years of visiting Sayulita. She knows her anatomy and can release the worst muscle knots. And her Rolfing certification brings another tool to bear when she needs it.

But the reason I’m writing this review is because I had a first in my life back event that left me on the floor for two days. On the afternoon of the second day I made my way to Riki’s rooftop sanctuary. She looked me over and said you need more than a massage and changed to her Rolfing table. Via a combination of deep pressure releasing massage and application of cold laser therapy the pain in my leg receded a bit that night. After a second similar session the next day, I was able to walk pain free and fly home comfortably— a feat considering how far I’d come in 3 days.

Writing this from the US wishing I could have a few more sessions with Riki and her laser.

First pain relief in 20 years

I have been living in constant pain from a variety of injuries including a broken back that manifested in my hip and right leg creating incredible sciatic, peripheral neuropathy and general torture from hip to tip from the constant electricity; I also think it may have something to do with the 3 blood clots in that leg (no proof). In addition, being a skier, surfer, martial arts, etc. person I have assorted pain all over that I almost don't acknowledge, why bother? After one treatment from Riki's new cold laser (I have been a patient for 15 years) I was thunderstruck at the difference! Improvement in every area she applied it. The most wonderful thing was no more nueropathy , which feels like the inside of your foot is on fire. Apparently results differ from person to patient, but for me it was a miracle! Thank you Riki

Profound Improvement with Jin Shin Jyutsu after first session

I was in Sayulita for 3 weeks thru To January 5 ,2018 and wanted my Holiday to be very relaxing , nurturing and restorative. I was referred to Riki from a friend who spoke very highly of her ,of how their was a transformation in her sessions. Riki is a healer, her continual studying and full hearten immersion into Body Work is a gift too her clients. I couldn't agree more, after having the experience . Balanced Nervous system, I felt Very rested & a profound calmness in my demeanor ,lovely grounded and focused Clarity.I did three sessions. If I had know how effective Jin Shin Jyutsu was I would have signed up for 6 sessions .I will always go back to visit Sayulita Holistic Bodywork / Rikik * its located right across from the town-square on the coco/banana side above the Pharmacy, climb the spiral metal stairs and you have arrived*

Wonderful experience!!

I will start this review by stating that I have been an outpatient physical therapist for almost 20 yrs. My husband and I came to Sayulita for a much needed vacation. While walking on the beach and seeing businesses that would give massages for $30/hour, we decided to do some investigating on the different spas located in Sayulita.
We came across Riki and the Holistic Bodywork. She has a great number of highly rated reviews. We went to the office the next morning and both of us were able to have 2 treatment sessions during our stay.
These are the things that are most important:
1) Riki has attended extensive continuing education classes; this shows her dedication to her profession
2) Riki is truly a diagnostician; she is able to evaluate and determine what areas need to be worked on
3) The techniques she uses are therapeutic in nature and not a fluffy beach massage and will have more lasting positive effects as both my husband and I have experienced
4) Riki also educates you on things to do to improve
5)) If you truly value your health and wellbeing, she is worth every penny/peso.

Great Massage

Read the reviews and reached right out to schedule an outcall visit. The reviews were all spot on. Great massage all around. Nothing formulaic, but rather very tailored to my body’s needs. Will absolutely schedule another appointment on our next visit and would recommend her bodywork to anyone. Thank you!
