My formal training started at the Pacific Center for Awareness and Bodywork on Kauai, Hawaii, following my studies in Chinese Medicine at the National University of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon.

Practicing massage therapy is a calling that began before I earned my bachelor's degree. My formal training started at the Pacific Center for Awareness and Bodywork on Kauai, Hawaii, following my studies in Chinese Medicine at the National University of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon. With over 1,000 hours of massage training, I specialize in Myofascial Release, Cranio Sacral Therapy, and Structural Integration. I have trained in Somatic Experiencing, Hakomi, Prenatal, Trigger Point, Swedish, and Lomi Lomil. My massage education under Mark Olson, Ph.D., emphasized the Neuroscience Affective Relational Model, making me a Trauma-Informed therapist. 

My massage sessions are somatically focused, incorporating Myofascial Release, Cranio Sacral Therapy, and Structural Integration, tailored to each client's unique needs. I believe the most effective sessions occur when clients deeply engage with their bodily experiences, gaining new awareness and sensations. While I prioritize the nervous system, gently addressing areas of pain to recalibrate it, I refer clients to other professionals when necessary and offer long-term support to help them achieve their goals. With a background in dance, yoga, meditation, and endurance sports, I combine my diverse knowledge with hands-on work.  I also offer pharmaceutical-grade Thorne and Microbiome Labs supplements at a discount. I think health is our greatest asset and I am eager to help my clients attain better health and wellbeing.

REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

by Jim on Apr 23
Very patient and soothing. Always willing to share knowledge and tips to help relieve stress outside of the appointment.

I woke up with a headache from tight muscles the morning of my massage. Shannon focused on my neck and shoulders hitting points in my jaw, neck and armpits as well. It was amazing and I felt so good afterwards. Looking forward to my next massage.

Shannon is an amazing and skilled massage therapist. She was able to release muscle tension and areas of pain with me, that had been bothersome for some time, for me. I highly recommend her.

Shannon is an incredible and intuitive massage therapist. I’m so glad I found her almost a decade ago! If you are looking for a great way to add some self care, look no further.

I just had an incredible massage with Shannon, and I want everyone to know what a wonderful experience it was! I explained all my past injuries, and she was incredibly attentive… a great listener who really targeted the spots that have been bothering me over the last few years. I’ve booked a three-session package, and I’m 100% going to recommend her to my cousin and sister so they can experience her talents too. I highly recommend Shannon to anyone looking to start their healing journey; her massage studio is extremely peaceful with a fantastic vibe. It’s easy to find and perfectly located downtown. Thank you so much, Shannon… I can’t wait to see you soon!
