Blanka | Licensed Massage Therapist

EDUCATION

Ashmead College, Portland, OR. 750-Hour program. Graduated 2003.

SUMMARY

​“My life’s passion is working with people, helping them, and listening. My certification in Lymphatic Therapy, combined with my experience volunteering with hospice clients, aromatherapy, and reflexology skills help to balance the body and mind at the same time. Nutrition is also a big portion of my holistic approach to everyday life.”

EXPERIENCED WITH

Swedish, Relaxation, Myofascial Release, Lymphatic Massage, Reflexology techniques, Geriatric, Hospice, Fibromyalgia and Himalayan Salt Stones

SUCCESS STORIES

“I was most appreciated by a hospice client with very painful, swollen legs. They could barely tolerate touch for more than 5 minutes the first time. With visits three times each week and increased time in each session, he was able to walk again in just a month and not rely on his wheelchair. He was able to enjoy his mobility for his remaining time.”

WHAT MAKES YOUR MASSAGES UNIQUE?

“I can provide great service to clients who appreciate that I am grounded and can help them relax and rest. My motto is ‘everybody needs massage sometimes.’”

WHAT DO YOU MOST APPRECIATE WHEN RECEIVING MASSAGE?

“Someone who is present, the right pressure for me, focuses, and provides the right treatment if needed. Mostly someone who will make me relax.”

WHAT KEEPS YOU PASSIONATE ABOUT MASSAGE?

“I feel very content when I am able to see people relax and lower their pain level, and leave feeling more positive than when they entered the massage room. My ultimate goal is let them forget their stressors from the busy world outside for the time they are in the room and put all attention on themselves. If they also learn anything new from me and can incorporate that into their lifetime goals to be content and healthy then my goal is accomplished and I am satisfied.”
