ENJOYING THE PRACTICE SINCE 2006!
Massage therapy
welcome!
welcome!
Hi, I'm Sandy Partridge.
Welcome to my website! I have been enjoying the practice since October, 2006, recently celebrating 20 years in this amazing career! I didn’t celebrate this huge milestone by announcing it on social media or hanging fancy banners outside my office, but spent some quiet time reflecting on how much my practice has changed over the years, or rather, how much I’ve changed because of my practice. And vice-versa.
My practice has survived many challenges. Over the years; I’ve hobbled around the table on sprained ankles and swollen knees, endured through shoulder injuries, fought severe joint pain and crippling fatigue from Lyme Disease, and rehabbed my way back from multiple injuries due to a head on collision with a drunk driver. Besides all that, I managed to keep practicing despite trauma, loss, and grief. Let's not forget the Market crash in 2008 (massage was the first expense to be cut, understandably), Covid-19 (I couldn’t work anyway since almost all my limbs were broken), and now in 2026, we are in the midst of another recession and an uncertain future due to political madness and AI threatening livelihoods.
I don’t want to be a Debbie-Downer, though. On a more positive note, my challenges are “The School of Hard Knocks”, teaching me lessons that may be more valuable than learning from a text-book (research and science is still very important though). Through each healing process, I have gained more valuable, real-life experiences that I can use to help educate and inspire my clients.
Going through hard times also opened my eyes to humanity (the good, bad, and the ugly), and to understand what is really important to live a happy, somewhat balanced life despite chaos.
Back in Balance Complete Wellness and Cranky Yoga are two parts of the same journey: healing through movement, caring for ourselves and others, finding humor in the hard stuff, and never giving up.
Whether you're here to relax, recover, move, or simply find a reason to smile—
I’m glad you’re here.
My Wellness Community

I love connecting with people who share my passion for health, movement, and helping others feel their best. Righteous Ground Training Center is one of those places! Located in the same complex as my practice, RGTC and I have built a wonderful relationship and occasionally collaborate in support of our shared wellness goals.

The Himalayan Institute holds a special place in my wellness journey. Through my ongoing studies in yoga therapy and Ayurvedic medicine, I've continued to deepen my understanding of the connection between mind, body, and spirit. I also spend one weekend each month at the Institute providing massage therapy. It's a place of learning, connection, and inspiration, and I encourage you to explore all the wonderful opportunities they offer!
