Laurie Knarr, RMTWhen asked what I wanted to do when I grew up I always answered "I want to help people". Massage therapy was a brilliant fit when choosing a career that helped people. Massage has the power to heal, relax and rejuvenate all at the same time. Since I became a Registered Massage Therapist in 1996, I haven't looked back. I love my job and truly enjoy helping people reduce their pain, increase mobility and help their bodies return to more normal usage patterns. Please don't hesitate to contact me to find out how therapeutic massage and craniosacral therapy can help you.
