History

Licensed since 2014.

Year one she practiced as sole massage therapist to a popular spa and became certified in integrative reflexology. For the next 3.5 years she spent my time working full time as lead massage therapist at a profitable chiropractors office with a large clientele. Brooke worked hand in hand with ground breaking therapies, extensively trained professionals, and amazing clients. She was also certified in integrative reflexology by the one and only Claire Marie Miller and in Dynamic Deep Tissue during that time at the number one massage school in the U.S. for 2017! She also competed the medical massage practitioners program in 2019. Since then, Brooke has expanded into the therapist she is today, where health and wellness is a way of life.

Often Brooke is asked what made her decide to become a massage therapist. Brooke first became a certified nursing assistant in 2009. She worked as a CNA providing in home health care services to the elderly and disabled. Brooke began watching her patients get prescribed stretches and physical activities in order to improve their quality of life. She began working with her patients doing everything the Physical Therapist had shown her. Once her patients improved and she got to see the immediate results of her and the patients hard work, she knew this was something she wanted to do the rest of her life. Brooke officially began her massage therapy career in 2013 at Johnston Community College. Shortly after Graduating and passing her state board exam in 2014, Brooke began working for a newly opening Day Spa. It was great experience as it showed her what it took to start a spa business from the ground up. A full year went by and Brooke decided that she wanted to advance her career by applying to a more medically based massage job. In early 2015 Brooke accepted a position at a well established spine clinic and worked there for three and a half years. Brooke then decided it was time to make the move of building her own office. Therefore she broke ground on The Bodywork Barn in Grantham NC! While building her new office, Brooke accepted a position with Dr. Hunter Bailey at in Mount Olive NC. Brooke is happy to announce that she is now accepting appointments at both THE BODYWORK BARN in GRANTHAM NC & DEMOCKO CHIROPRACTIC MOUNT OLIVE in MT OLIVE NC!
