Who we are
"In early 2018 I initiated a community massage program to treat people with chronic back pain, to correct body posture and gait. It is hard work but the best reward to me is to know that those who have been treated by me are able to resume their favorite activities, or to play their favorite sports again."
-Founder, Michelle Yuen, PhD, LMT

Practitioners
Michelle Yuen, PhD, LMT
Dr Michelle Yuen earned a doctor’s degree in Pharmacology from the University of Minnesota. She has gained a wealth of knowledge that makes her a compassionate and effective therapist. She incorporates slow, meditative, effective strokes from deeper pressure to a gentler touch, creating a balanced blend of effective therapies, using both Eastern and Western bodywork skills. Her goal is to diffuse pain and tension through an energized and grounded touch, and to instill relaxation, clarity, as well as a felt sense of greater vitality. With thorough assessments of tension areas, she is able to develop individualized sessions on both physical and subtle levels for each client.
