Hi, I’m Monique Villalobos, a mountain woman from Marble, CO, and a mom of two awesome kids. I’ve lived in Marble for almost 40 years. I’m an artist and intuitive healer, working with crystals sound healing and meditations, and now LPG endermologie® at Beyond Massage Aspen. I’m passionate about helping others and living a life in harmony with nature. Nature is our greatest teacher, and when we combine technology with nature’s way, we can achieve the best results and experience a life worth living.
I strongly believe in finding ways to make the body function the way it was designed to. The LPG system continues to impress me with its cosmetic and medical purposes. My healthcare background spans 20 years, specializing in geriatrics and young adults with severe disabilities and conditions. Through this experience, I’ve learned various tools and modalities to assist my clients in achieving the results they need and desire. I believe that emotional, physical, and energetic health are key to making the world a better place. By learning and prioritizing the things that keep us aligned with nature’s way of life, we can create change in the world. I look forward to meeting and working with you!

My commitment to natural medicine and nutrition is at the heart of everything I do. With more than two decades of hands-on experience, I have dedicated myself to helping patients seek a renewed life, full of restored function and good health. I am passionate about the whole client, not just symptoms or temporary solutions, my practice embodies a compassionate yet professional environment for acupuncture and natural health services.
What started as an internship at the age of 19 ultimately changed the trajectory of my life and my career, helping me land where I am today. On a detour that led me to working with a native elder, I spent the first two years of my career witnessing remarkable healing occur with the use of natural medicine. It was during this time that I learned that everything is energetically interconnected, from the physical aches and pains we experience in our body to the emotional aches and pains we experience in our hearts. Harnessing that knowledge, I sought to educate myself in multiple wellness techniques. With more than 5,000 hours of training in eastern and western modalities and 20 years of experience, my work and my clients are my passion. In 2004, I founded my own natural wellness business in Aspen and my roots grow deeper here every year.
In my spare time, you might find me off the grid hiking, paddle boarding, skinning, or photographing beautiful sites. I enjoy experimenting in my kitchen with healthy gourmet treats and meals or making reservations at a fine restaurant. When I’m not in the outdoors or in my kitchen I am likely checking more places off my ever-growing bucket list – from hiking Kilimanjaro to viewing Kodiak bears in their natural habitat. I love being in nature and viewing this wild life all around me. When I push myself to the outer limits of my athletic endeavors, I know the importance of wellness and vibrant living firsthand.
Be inspired. Be well.

Brooklyn is a licensed massage therapist, strength training devotee, and wellness enthusiast who brings passion, precision, and purpose to every session. With a background in competitive cheerleading and gymnastics, her appreciation for the body’s resilience started early—and led her to a deep love of therapeutic massage.
She specializes in deep tissue massage and barefoot massage (yes—she uses her feet!), offering strong, intuitive bodywork that’s deeply restorative but never aggressive. Brooklyn is also trained in table Thai massage, also known as facilitated stretching, which makes her a go-to for athletes and active clients looking for full-body recovery and range-of-motion work.
She holds certifications in manual lymphatic drainage and LPG Endermologie and co-created our signature “Lymphatic Experience” alongside Ally, combining Brazilian-style and traditional lymphatic techniques. These treatments support immune health, reduce inflammation, aid post-surgical recovery, and promote detoxification—perfectly aligned with Brooklyn’s commitment to healthy, empowered living.
Clients regularly rave about her intuitive presence, skilled hands (and feet!), and ability to help the body unwind in just one session. One client shared:
“Brooklyn identified the issue, explained what was going on, and then fixed it—in just one hour. I’m super grateful.”
Another wrote:
“I was so relaxed—it felt like a five-hour massage. She spent extra time on my tight hamstrings. I felt amazing afterward.”
Brooklyn is certified in cupping therapy and will be heading to Costa Rica this fall for advanced medical massage training. She currently sees clients full-time at both our Aspen and Basalt locations.
