CranioSacral Therapy & Massage · Stowe & Northfield

Listening touch.

I’m Shambhavi Fitzpatrick, a licensed massage therapist practicing since 2005. I see clients in Stowe, and on Thursdays at The Sanctuary in Northfield.

How I work

Each session takes shape through listening—to you and to your body. I pay attention to where you’re holding tension, how your tissues respond, and what changes as we work, adjusting pressure and technique along the way.

My work combines experience, intuition, and skilled hands-on care to help ease pain, support recovery from injuries, and address persistent muscle tension. Whether you need deep tissue work or a gentler approach, the session follows what your body needs.

The name

Maitri(MY-tree) is a Sanskrit word for loving-kindness. It is how I try to meet each person who comes to the table: with attention, care, and respect.

About me

Twenty years at the table

My work is rooted in the body’s innate ability to heal itself. After twenty-five years performing and teaching dance, I graduated from The New School for Massage, Bodywork & Healing in Chicago in 2005, then deepened my studies in the foothills of the Himalayas: Hatha and Ashtanga yoga, and yoga therapy.

I’m also a mother, and I know how much a body carries. My aim is simple: to listen well, and to work with what your body needs that day.
