Owner, licensed medical massage therapist, and continuing education instructor for massage therapists. 

Julie Brown is a licensed massage therapist and business owner since 1996. Her focus is on medical (treatment-oriented) massage, corrective exercise counseling, functional nutrition counseling and a certified high-performance natural skincare formulator. Medical massage therapists are experts in athletic and over-use injuries. She looks at the body as a whole and what dysfunctions may impede a person from performing their best. With a heavy focus on movement, posture, pain, nutrition and overall wellbeing, Julie is the right choice for you!

 Julie enjoys weight training, running, hiking and mountain biking. She gets excited about working on fellow exercise or health enthusiasts in making the corrections to improve performance. Most exciting for her is when she can provide  pain relief or fix an injured body. She equates massage to the maintenance your car needs. It should be something we do routinely to maintain our awareness of what is happening to our body. Self-care is the first step, second is finding a good therapist to take that journy with. Her clients marvel at her attention to detail and her determination in helping them feel better in general. 

We are embracing fall! The colorful display of warm, firely color and the crisp air creates coziness. We want to curl up with warm socks and a cup of pumpkin spice goodness. However, as the moisture and cold increases, our joints tend to cause us more pain. We invite you to come in and release the fall aches and pains so you can enjoy the comforts of all that fall brings.

Licensed Massage Therapist

Joan has been licensed since 2006. It has been her goal to make a difference for people in a natural way with little side effects. When she learned about the massage profession, she was intrigued by the hands-on approach. In receiving her first massages, she loved the personal touch to wellness and could feel the rewarding results in her own body. As a profession, it's even more rewarding to see the positive results in her clients. She believes in the importance of educating clients in postural awareness, how-to increase strength to prevent further injury, and overall self-care.

The modalities she most enjoys are Swedish/relaxation, hot stone, aromatherapy, treatment massage (including trigger point and PNF). However, Joan is continuing to learn new skills and is not only mentored by Julie, she is taking her class in medical massage therapy.

In her free time, she enjoys beautiful scenery around the Northwest by walking, hiking and biking. Or, water activities, such as kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding. 

"Joan is a great therapist and very skilled. Since working with her, my range of motion has significantly improved and she provides me exercises. Her methods are a reminder that effective massages don't have to hurt or feel uncomfortable." Cyrena A.
