I’ve held many jobs over the years mainly working as a CNA in long-term care facilities or taking care of people with physical and developmental disabilities for the last 25 years. I decided it was time to get out of nursing but still wanted to help people.
I enrolled in the massage therapy program at WellSpring, School of Allied Health, and, at 39, began my new career as a massage therapist in 2019. While in school I learned so many new and interesting things that will allow me to individualize every massage. I also learned that Massage isn’t just a luxury, it’s much-needed self-care. If we don’t take the time to take care of ourselves, we allow our bodies to get overworked, and our minds to get overwhelmed. When our bodies or minds are in pain, we are no help to anyone.
