Rachael Leigh-BS, LMT, LE, MLD-C
Hi, I’m Rachael Leigh, owner and the face of Apply Pressure! Wellness and athleticism are part of who I am — a former cheerleader, bodybuilder, and lifelong athlete. Through my personal journey, I developed a deep passion for health, holistic healing, and helping others feel confident.
I hold a B.S. in Kinesiology and am a dual-licensed massage therapist and esthetician, as well as a certified Manual Lymphatic Drainage therapist (Vodder technique). My mission is to educate others on the importance of prioritizing their overall wellbeing in relation to performance.
I work with athletes and high performers because I understand what it’s like to live in a body that demands more. My personal journey of healing on a holistic level — including the skin, gut, hormones, and mind — has inspired me to help others do the same.
Through a combination of skin therapy, massage therapy, and lifestyle guidance, I focus on promoting total wellness. I believe true results come when clients are equipped not only with intentional treatment-but also when given the space to rest in their worth without over-proving through their performance.

“Excellent and professional service! Rachael is not only a talented massage therapist, she also has a deep understanding of how to fix problems or pains, versus just targeting areas of discomfort.”
Shanira Castillo
“Rachael created a safe and professional environment for me and checked back in after the session to make sure I was feeling okay. She’s amazing at what she does. I’ll never go anywhere else.”
Carl Schreck
“Being in my fifties and a dedicated fitness enthusiast, I regularly need deep tissue massages to aid recovery from my rigorous workouts…Rachael’s vibrant energy and formidable work ethic, indicative of a committed young professional building her business, are truly impressive.”
Marvin Coleman II
Athlete
“”Rachael is very good and very passionate about what she does. I’ve had plenty of sports massages and most people just do simple massages, but not Rachael. She asks questions to make sure you are feeling the pressure..You sit on that table with aches, and get up feeling fresh and revived!”
Nicolette Shaw
“I’ve been to Rachael several times for massages & highly recommend her for any service. Most recently, I did a lymphatic facial which left my face looking bright and hydrated. I swear my face was glowing even 3 days after the service.”
Chris Bryant
Basketball Strength Coach
“Had a really good experience! As a strength coach I’d definitely recommend this service to all athletes and to anyone looking to take care of their body!”
Sabrina Cofield
“Where do I begin?! Rachael is, without question, the most knowledgeable massage therapist I have ever had! She KNOWS the body! How it functions, what it needs, and how to heal it. And on top of that, she is an incredible esthetician! I recnetly had a dermaplane and lymphatic drainage facial and I am blown away by how my skin looks! Five stars does not even do justice!”
