Rachel Sharp is a highly qualified massage therapist with over 20 years of experience, the past two at The Indigo Spa, the on-site spa at Hilton Head Health. 

Sharp heard of Hilton Head Health in 2011 when she saw an early episode of the A&E reality show Heavy. “When I saw that show, I knew this was where I wanted to work. I literally said to myself, ‘I’m going to work there one day.’ I was so struck by the grace and love that they showed each person.”

Sharp has struggled with her weight most of her life. “When you are overweight, you are typically treated one of two ways. Either people choose not to see and acknowledge you, or they shame you because you take up too much space in the room.”
