Kerry graduated from Minneapolis School of Massage where she studied Swedish, Trigger Point Therapy, Esalan, and other basic massage techniques. She then went on to get certified from John Barnes’s Myofascial Release 1 and 2, and Myofascial Unwinding. She is also certified in Neuromuscular Therapy, and from the Upledger Institute, CranioSacral Therapy, and SomatoEmotional Release.

Now with more than 25 years of experience, she utilizes these techniques to develop the best plan to help her clients reach their health and pain reducing goals. She works as deep as the tissue will allow to increase blood flow, increase range of motion, decrease pain and allow the body to heal.

Joel graduated from Centerpoint School and Clinic of Massage and Shiatsu. With over 10 years of hands on experience, he has developed special techniques to treat neck issues and is considered a neuro muscular specialist.

Viktoriya started learning massage as a child, to treat headaches and back pain among family members. She received her Diploma of Massage Therapy and Asian Bodywork from Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in Chicago. There she trained in Tui Na, Fire Cupping, and Floor/ Table Thai Massage. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Art History and Philosophy from Northwestern University.

In 2016 Viktoriya traveled to Chiang Mai, Thailand to further her studies at Thai Massage School Shivagakomarpaj & Old Medicine Hospital. She often blends Table Thai techniques along with Deep Tissue to address pelvic and lumbar dysfunction.

In her ten year practice, her primary goals have been to help restore homeostasis and encourage healthy diaphragmatic breathing during sessions. She particularly enjoys helping with headaches, rotator cuff, upper-crossed syndrome, TMJ pain, and providing abdominal massage. She also offers Prenatal and Postnatal Massage and knows from experience how helpful receiving bodywork can be during this transformative time.

Emily graduated from CenterPoint Massage and Shiatsu Therapy School and Clinic, where she received training in both Western and Eastern bodywork modalities. Being able to approach healing from both Eastern and Western viewpoints helps her to provide well rounded, holistic sessions.

She has received training in therapeutic massage, shiatsu therapy, Swedish massage, trigger point therapy, prenatal massage, and cupping. Emily is also certified in Connective Tissue Massage by John Latz through the Institute for Structural Integration.

Her favorite part about her job is helping facilitate healing and restoration for the individuals she works with. She believes the body is created in an amazing design, and we have so much more to learn about it!
