Today we’d like to introduce you to Elizabeth Osorio.
Hi Elizabeth, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
I am the proud daughter of Colombian immigrants. My parents brought my siblings and me to the United States when we were young, seeking greater opportunities and a brighter future for our family. Their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering work ethic have shaped the person I am today.
At 21 years old, I decided to attend massage therapy school. At the time, I simply wanted to learn a trade while I figured out what I truly wanted to do with my life. What I never expected was to discover a career that would become my passion and my purpose.
Over the past 15 years, I have had the privilege of working alongside chiropractors, luxury spas, medical spas, and private clients in their homes. Each experience has deepened my understanding of the body and strengthened my ability to listen—not only with my hands, but with compassion and intention. Throughout my career, I have refined my techniques and developed a personalized approach that supports each client’s unique healing journey.
Today, I am honored to welcome clients into my private massage studio in Historic Old Town Alexandria. At With One Touch Massage by Liz, my mission is to provide more than just massage therapy—I strive to create a peaceful space where every client feels cared for, restored, and supported. My goal is for each person who walks through my door to experience exceptional care, genuine compassion, and the healing power of intentional touch.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Building this business has not been easy, but every challenge has been worth it. I wear many hats—as a wife, a homeschooling mother, and an entrepreneur. Balancing family, faith, and business is a daily commitment, but it is one that I embrace with gratitude.
Throughout my career, I experienced the highs and lows of working in the wellness industry. I worked in environments where I wasn’t always valued as a therapist, and like many healthcare professionals, I experienced burnout. Moving from one position to another taught me an important lesson: I could never provide the level of care I envisioned while working in places that prioritized volume over genuine healing.
Those experiences gave me the courage to build something of my own.
Creating With One Touch Massage by Liz has allowed me to practice massage therapy the way I always believed it should be—without rushing, without compromising quality, and with every session centered on the individual needs of my clients. My goal has always been to create a space where people feel seen, cared for, and supported in their healing journey.
Today, I am incredibly grateful to serve my community from my private studio in Historic Old Town Alexandria. Every client who trusts me with their care is the reason I continue to pursue excellence, and I consider it an honor to be a part of their path toward healing and wellness.
As you know, we’re big fans of WITH ONE TOUCH MASSAGE BY LIZ . For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
I have dedicated my practice to helping people find relief from pain, reduce stress, and restore balance in the midst of life’s everyday demands. Over the years, what began as a fascination with the body’s remarkable ability to heal has grown into a heartfelt commitment to supporting each client’s individual wellness journey.
I specialize in Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Prenatal and Postnatal Massage, and my personal favorite—Lymphatic Drainage Therapy. Lymphatic drainage is especially meaningful to me because of its gentle yet powerful approach. Through light, intentional touch, I help stimulate the body’s natural detoxification process while teaching clients to better understand and listen to what their bodies are communicating.
One of the qualities my clients often mention is the peaceful atmosphere I create. I believe healing begins the moment someone walks through my door. My calm presence, gentle approach, and intuitive touch allow clients to fully relax, often leaving each session feeling lighter, renewed, and deeply cared for.
For me, massage therapy is about so much more than relieving muscle tension. It’s about building trust, creating a safe space, and walking alongside each client as they move toward greater health and wellness. There is nothing more rewarding than witnessing someone’s progress—whether they’re finding relief from chronic pain, recovering after surgery or injury, navigating pregnancy, managing stress, or simply reconnecting with themselves.
Every session is thoughtfully tailored to the individual because no two bodies—and no two healing journeys—are ever the same. My goal is to provide compassionate, evidence-informed care that helps every client feel restored, empowered, and supported long after they leave my treatment room.
How do you think about happiness?
At the heart of my practice is a simple mission: to serve others with compassion, excellence, and intentional care. My business is rooted in faith and grounded in science, blending evidence-based massage therapy with a genuine desire to help others heal. I believe that every person deserves to feel seen, cared for, and restored, and it is my greatest joy to be a small part of each client’s healing journey through the power of therapeutic touch.
