Cheryl was raised with massage therapy in her family, and from a young age she was fascinated by it. Through firsthand experience, she witnessed its benefits as a healing modality and capacity for reversing the negative effects of injuries. She went on to pursue massage as her career, graduating in 2019 from the Institute for Therapeutic Massage in Haskell, NJ. There, she studied core training in deep tissue, myofascial release, and Swedish techniques, which are the main modalities that she bases her client treatment sessions on. Having worked in spas as well as in athletic settings, she developed an intense interest in sports massage and reflexology alongside her deep tissue work. The opportunity to connect with people and gain an understanding of their unique experience is one that truly energizes her; her ability to listen allows her to design each session and successfully address specific unique needs. Utilizing a combination of intuition and knowledge, she is able to create a targeted healing treatment plan for each of her clients at the onset of their treatment. Being able to reverse someone’s pain and improve their overall health is really what fuels her passion and keeps her continually enthusiastic about her work. Cheryl is a recent Bellingham transplant, having moved here from New York State. She fell in love with the Pacific Northwest years ago and is really excited to finally be living here and building her own community in our little town. When she isn't working, Cheryl spends her time as a musician, a writer, and an avid outdoors-goer. In keeping with her passion for helping people, she earned her Bachelor’s degree in Social Work and continues to seek out ways to improve the life experience of those around her every day.
