All About Michelle

Michelle has been a massage therapist since May 2006 and also large animal massage since August 2006. Michelle specializes in injury treatment, deep tissue massage with an emphasis on pain reduction as well as sports massage, and a fantastic relaxation massage. Michelle is also experienced in other modalities such as hot stone massage, pregnancy massage, chair massage and elder care massage.

Michelle has a heart for special needs clients - and their caregivers - as well as the elderly. She works with cancer patients, touch deprivation, hearing impaired, the blind and those clients recovering from trauma (such as the death of a loved one.) Her caring, compassionate nature is what makes her a natural at this type of bodywork.

Combining her love of horses and massage, Michelle has been doing bodywork for some of the top 1d barrel horses here in the northwest. Focusing on injury and muscle recovery, these horses have returned to their winning ways. She also teaches owners how to exercise and stretch their horse to maximize their abilities and prevent recurring injury and muscle soreness.

Born and raised in western Washington, Michelle makes her home in Ethel. Her and her husband have 4 children and 2 grandchildren. Other than her family and massage, horses are her greatest love. Michelle is a dedicated competitive barrel racer and someday hopes to rodeo. She is available for hire for outside events, such as chair massage, home spa parties, and large animal massage.

Michelle currently can accept Regence Blue Shield clients and is pending approval with several other insurance companies. She also accepts L&I and PIP clients.
