ABOUT
Welcome to Desert Sol Massage & Bodywork!
Desert Sol Massage & Bodywork is a locally owned massage and bodywork boutique located near Downtown El Paso. Our mission is to provide exceptional and restorative massage experiences by incorporating the intentional use of space, touch, movement, sound, aromatherapy, medicinal herbs and the elements of nature.
​
We invite you to feel first hand how we are redefining the massage experience. Our multi-sensory massage experience is intended to bring you closer to nature and into a deeper place within yourself.
In addition to our one-of-a-kind massage experiences, we also handcraft our own organic herbal elixirs, tonics, teas and infused aromatherapeutic massage oils through our sister shop, Sanguine Sage Apothecary. These all-natural plant powered remedies are in our opinion a missing link to our well-being and to how we have lived for thousands of years! Let us reconnect ourselves with Mother Earth and allow her wisdom back into our daily!
​
We are disconnected from Nature these days, and it's no coincidence that we are also disconnected from our bodies and the depths of who we really are...
We want you to know that Desert Sol is indeed a safe-zone and a healing space that exists to help you (the community) remove the layers of built-up stress and unhealthy thought patterns that keep us from living in the present moment.
By providing a non-judgmental space of sensory nourishment, you may find yourself in a nostalgic place of freedom within yourself that you have not felt in a long time. There are new pathways that you may travel within your body during the massage experience and through the process you just may rediscover the best and most authentic parts of yourself!
The Desert Sol experience goes beyond just the physical massage. This experience is achieved by combining the intentional use of:
​
Space
​
Breath
​
Music
​
Aromatherapy
​
Therapeutic Touch
​
Plant Medicine
​
and the Elements of Nature
​
​
WE WELCOME YOU COME VISIT US AND EXPERIENCE IT FOR YOURSELF.

WE ARE AVAILABLE BY APPOINTMENT. GIVE US A CALL!

OUR THERAPISTS
Gabriel Beltran L.M.T.
Gabe is the founder and creator behind the Desert Sol experience. He enjoys being present for his clients, giving attention to detail and is fulfilled by the idea providing a complete experience of the senses, where one may be transported out of the mundane and into the depths of oneself. He believes by ‘nature-ing’ the senses, one may allow themselves to feel the freedom to let go of the disserving thought patterns that may keep us from accessing a more authentic version of ourselves.
While Gabriel is a traditionally trained massage therapist, he sees massage a delicate dance of intention, presence, breath, therapeutic touch and ritual. Specializing in myofascial release, manual lymphatic drainage, and Thai massage modalities, he blends these techniques with concepts of presence, breathwork, and flow in order to help the body ease it’s way back into homeostasis.
Gabriel also carries a passion for plant medicine and often weaves his handmade herbal tinctures into his massage sessions to create a more holistic and expansive healing experience. He believes that mother nature holds a big piece of the puzzle in our path to wholeness.
