In 1998 I graduated from Florida College of Natural Health, with an advanced degree in massage therapy. This is where my journey into understanding the true meaning of preventative health care began. I learned the basic principles of Massage therapy and went on to learn advanced techniques. Through my advanced training I learned techniques that allowed me to reduce or even eliminate chronic pains and injuries. I was also given the opportunity to intern at the University of Miami working with athletes of all types. It was at that moment that I knew that I have found my passion and direction in my life.
After graduation I went on to pursue my career in massage therapy and landed a job working with a chiropractor for several years prior to moving to Atlanta, Georgia. Upon moving to Atlanta I began working with another chiropractor as I found my way in the city I now call home. I have gained experience and knowledge through my places of employment, but over eight years ago made the decision to fulfill my dream of owning my own massage therapy practice.
When I opened Long Life Therapeutics I had no idea how impactful this journey was about to be, but as I learned more my dream became bigger and knew that the services that I had to offer would make a difference in many individuals lives, so I will continue to grow Long Life Therapeutics. It is my mission to give people the necessary tools to apply a lifestyle of health and wellness, helping to grow the passion within them. Massage therapy offers much more than relaxation. It is a necessity, whether it’s the athlete who needs to recover and receive nutrients to the muscle to enhance performance, the person who sits at a desk and suffers from low back pain, or for your everyday person who endures a large amount of stress on a daily basis.
Through the last eighteen years I have been involved in community events to help support charities, such as the breast cancer awareness, diabetes walks, women’s shelters, KARMA project, wheelchair basketball, to name a few. I have also volunteered in working with children in sports, such as track and football. I would perform pre/post sports massage, as well as help to get them recovered quickly through an injury.
