Body Workers

As a “latch key” kid, I never got to spend a lot of time with my parents as my dad worked in the day and my mom at night. Massage changed that. My mother, an RN who worked 11pm to 7am, would come home, get a shower and breakfast, and be on the massage table by 9am. Afterwards, we would actually hang out and go places! It was such a dramatic change in our lives that it might as well have been magic at work on that table. When I realized I had a talent for it too, I dedicated my life to it, making massage, and body work in general, my Art.

After high school I went right to Baltimore School of Massage and graduated in 1999. I have been working in all sorts of locations from Salons and fitness centers to the Maryland Renaissance Festival to working alongside chiropractors in my 20 years of experience. I have certifications in Swedish, Deep Tissue, Cupping, Myofascial Release, Cranial Sacral Therapy, Lymphatic Drainage, Sound Massage, Reiki and Reflexology.  I continue to expand my abilities all the time and research new ways to combine what I know for the best session I can offer. My goal is always to get to the root of the problem and find a way to solve it or make it less of an issue in someone’s life. No one should have to live with pain and if I, or anyone I know, can help reduce it or heal it completely, I will do my best in that endeavor.

On a personal note, I’m a fox spirit in a human body and love being creative in the weirdest way possible. I try never to repeat myself in word or deed and love all forms of chicanery! I speak in music and movie quotes and the more people are smiling and laughing around me, the better I am. I’m also one for getting my hands into crafts of all kinds and love exploring artistic expressions in movement.

Massage is your key to staying healthy!  I truly, truly believe this – and I hope to make a believer out of you!

Hello! My name is Kelly and I am a Registered Massage Practitioner, licensed in Maryland and Pennsylvania since 2005.

I have worked in various spas and wellness centers across Maryland and Pennsylvania over the years and I’m VERY excited to now be a part of the Truth Mind & Body Team! I have an ACE Massage Cupping Therapy Certification and I believe Massage Cupping is an amazing pain-free modality to releasing tension in our bodies. I also have expertise in Swedish and Prenatal Massage as well as Warm Stone Therapy.

I enjoy meeting new clients and helping to educate them in the alternative options of Massage Therapy and the various treatments offered at Truth Mind & Body! I look forward to working with you soon – let’s explore your better health together!

I have been a practicing Massage Therapist since 2004, including 5-years as a Massage Instructor at Medix and Fortis Institute.

I offer a wide range of services – from Swedish, Deep Tissue, Cupping, Hot Stone, Reflexology, Trigger Point, Lymphatic Draining and much more – specializing in helping clients to target their problem areas and meet their goals.

Even before I decided to pursue massage as a career, I spent many, many years as a client!  It has helped me tremendously in my pursuit of wellness and success.

I enjoy cooking, gardening, working with my hands, the outdoors, and spending time with my family.

Form and function have always been a driving force in what I choose to be, do, see, and study in my life.  As a student of both interior design and massage therapy, I can tell you that they have much more in common than many would think – there are so many similarities between building and body systems which offers me a unique perspective and approach to massage therapy/body work.

It is incredible to share that I have been a Licensed Massage Therapist for over 10-years and am grateful for the circumstances that have lead me to today. In that time, my journey has been full, both professionally and personally – particularly with regard to my own health journey.  In many ways, it has shaped who I am and who I strive to be as a Massage Therapist!

I have enjoyed continuing my education – as required AND beyond – as well as practicing my skill-set(s) to meet the needs of the 21st Century client!  I am Nationally Board Certified and practice multiple modalities including: Gentle (Swedish), Deep Tissue, Muscle Origin & Insertion, Myofascial Release, Body Mapping & Scar Tissue Release, Reflexology (Ears, Hands and Feet), Warm Stone Therapy, Prenatal Massage, Aromatherapy, Percussion Massage Tool and Gua Sha.  I also had the privilege of traveling to Kathmandu, Nepal in 2011, where I studied Nepalese Ayurvedic Massage at the Himalayan Healers School.  I am very proud to say that I am one (1) of only three (3) practitioners of this 5,000 year old modality in all of the United States!

I look forward to the opportunity of working with YOU!
