Owner
Erica Medina, L.M.T.
Erica Medina was educated at the prestigious Chicago School of Massage Therapy. Practicing since 2004, Erica spent two years with Elizabeth Arden’s Red Door Spa, where, in a very short time, she worked her way up to Regional Trainer and Body Department Lead. Erica then went on to spend five years at the world-renowned, 5-star Peninsula Hotel Spa in Chicago.
Erica and her husband of eighteen years became parents in November of 2010, welcoming boy/girl twins. They were blessed again just eleven months later with daughter number two. When the twins were one and the youngest just ten months old, the family (including two large dogs and a hermit crab) relocated to Cleveland. They now have three dogs, three guinea pigs, and the same 17-year-old hermit crab! When not spending time with her family, Erica enjoys traveling, hiking, traveling, coffee, traveling, and anything chocolate!
Dana Kingston, L.M.T.
Dana Kingston attended the Seattle Massage School, where she completed a 905 hour certification program, and graduated with honors in 1999. Besides Seattle, Dana has honed her skills in a variety of settings including clinics, spas, and a private practice in both North Carolina and beautiful Colorado. She is passionate about helping individuals achieve their goals of eliminating pain, optimizing performance, and simply relaxing for a better quality of life!
An Ohio native, Dana returned to her home state in 2022 to be near family, and we’re so happy to have her! As an accomplished marathon/ultra runner, she also has extensive experience working with athletes. When she’s not pampering, Dana enjoys hanging out with her pup, hiking the many beautiful metro parks, checking out the food and culture scene around CLE, and spending time with family.
Elizabeth Moody, L.M.T.
Elizabeth Moody joins Reprieve after spending eleven years as the lead trainer at the Four Diamond Spa at Whitefish Lake in Montana. Certified in Swedish, Sports Massage, and Reiki in Barcelona back in 2008, Elizabeth then added Deep Tissue, Reflexology, and other integrated massage techniques at the Potomac Massage Therapy Institute in D.C.
Growing up in Saudi Arabia, Elizabeth was exposed to diverse cultures which has influenced her perspective. With a fine art degree from GWU, she channels her energy into massage, blending artistic expression with the healing power of touch.
Tristina Silva, L.M.T.
Tristina Silva comes to us from Las Vegas, where she studied at the Nevada School of Massage Therapy, completing a 900-hour curriculum before graduating in 2009. Professionally trained in more than 20 different modalities, partnering with Caesars and MGM-owned properties, until relocating to Ohio in 2017 with her husband, dog, and two cats. Since moving to Ohio, Tristina has worked as a healing and detox specialist with a microvascular surgeon at an outpatient clinic, assisting post-operative patients in their recovery. She is passionately committed to the therapeutic process and utilizes her knowledge and skill set to achieve results for each individual’s personal needs. Outside of work, Tristina enjoys mountain biking, podcasts, and yoga.
