INSTRUCTOR LICENSE #I-457

Hi, I’m Dakota Korb, a Licensed Massage Therapist serving the Homewood and Birmingham, AL community since 2021. My passion for bodywork and holistic health has guided me on a journey of continual growth and learning. After completing a three year apprenticeship at the Birmingham School of Massage, i received my Massage Instructor License. In September 2025, after many hours of dedication I expanded my practice by becoming a Vedic Thai Bodywork Practitioner. Along with massage, I am also a Certified Yoga Teacher, blending movement, mindfulness, and bodywork to help clients achieve greater balance and lasting wellness.

I believe the body has an incredible, innate ability to heal itself when given the right support. Massage therapy is more than pain relief, it’s a pathway to restoring harmony in body, mind, and spirit. My goal is always to help clients move through life with less tension, more freedom, and a deeper sense of well-being.

When I’m not in the studio, you’ll often find me outdoors with my family and dog, on my yoga mat, exploring new foods, or finding my next adventure.

If you’re looking for a massage therapist in Homewood or Birmingham, AL, I’d love to help you feel your best and find balance in your everyday life.

My studies, mentors, and trainings:

My passion for helping others directly leads me to continually deepen my understanding of the body. To find new and inventive ways to approach how dynamic the body is. I love to learn and have been extremely blessed by the teachers and mentors I have learned from. I would like to name them and state my appreciation for their knowledge and wisdom.
