Professional:
I am a healthcare professional Nationally Certified
in Massage Therapy and Bodywork (NCMTB), a Licensed Massage Practitioner (LMP)
in Washington State, and an American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) Member.
I graduated from Ashmead College in Fife, Washington in November of 2006 and,
in addition to taking periodic continued education courses, I practice
therapeutic massage in the Port Orchard, Washington area. I incorporate
Swedish, Deep Tissue, Treatment, Hot Stone Massage & Pre- & Perinatal Massage Therapy techniques as
appropriate to meet the unique needs of all of my individual clients. My
main goal is to concentrate on the health and wellbeing of each and every
client individually. I believe in educating my clients on their own
bodies and how they can increase their body's awareness thru breathing and self
care techniques so they can increase their energy and health.
Part of my inspiration to become a Licensed Massage Therapist came when I was
injured at work in July 2000 and again in a car accident four months later.
I had strained tendons and muscles in my neck and back. I would
persistently experience pain and discomfort from my injuries. Later, I attended
massage school, where I received massages and chiropractic care on a regular
basis. Now, I have very few problems.
My inspiration also came from my neighbor (also a licensed LMP) whom I now work
with. She opened me up to the idea of being my own boss and making a difference
for people in the world. I have since opened my business working along
side Tamara Burt LMP and Dr Neil Aguilo DC, at P3 Chiropractic & Massage in
February of 2007.
Personal:
I am 26 years old and very much a family girl! I love to incorporate a lot of
the things I do with my family and friends into my daily life. My mom is my
best friend, whom I miss everyday I’m not spending time with her!
When I’m not working or at home with my hubby, I enjoy playing with our dogs,
camping, hiking, off-roading, horseback riding, photography (you can see some
of my photos on http://massar.smugmug.com
),
and I love to experience the beautiful waterfalls in Washington!
I
was raised in the deserts of Southern California and lived there until 4 years
ago. It was in California where I received my Associates Degree of
Liberal Arts from Victor Valley College. I married my husband Gregg, who
was a Navy man, who brought me up here to the beautiful state of
Washington. Gregg just recently got out of the Navy and so we are both
looking forward to starting a family of our own one day soon.
