Lela White has been in practice for 20 years, focusing her career in the sports medicine sector working under the guidance of physical therapists and athletic trainers to provide clinical soft tissue mobilization for patients and athletes. After earning her degree in Exercise Science from VCU she taught Kinesiology at University of Richmond for several years before moving on to teach at her alma mater, the Lotus Professional College.  Her practice is trusted by an extensive referral network of athletic clubs, physical therapists and doctors throughout Richmond. 


Lela receives massage therapy on a regular basis as part of her maintenance routine for her scoliosis and understands on a very personal level how integral sports massage/ clinical soft tissue mobilization can be to achieving a healthy lifestyle. She is extremely grateful for her community, colleagues, patrons and the ability to practice what she loves.

Lela truly takes the time to figure out what is wrong and what needs to be corrected with area of concern whenever I come in. She always has her work cut out for her because each time it's a new area that needs attention :)

lela white has 20+ years of experience with massage and she knows her stuff!!! in my case she has single-handedly reversed plantar fasciitis, a psoas muscle pull and a piriformis muscle problem when doctors and other massage therapist could offer no relief. She is THE BEST of the BEST.
