There I was trained in hands on therapies including multiple forms of cranio-sacral therapy, visceral manipulation, myofascial release kinesiology and Zero Balancing.

Linda graduated from the the Utah college of Massage Therapy, Lindon Campus in December of 1999. Her experiences and exposure to a wide range of therapeutic needs has cultivated a love for working with those that live in chronic pain. Whether the condition is that of an autoimmune disorder, accident or life, she enjoys the challenge and the relationships fostered through what is often an intimate and emotional process of overcoming and enduring pain. 

Linda and her husband Dale have been blessed with 3 beautiful children, two girls and a boy. Together they enjoy hiking, camping, movies, books and playgrounds. Linda enjoys quilting and crafts, and experimenting with anything yummy in the kitchen. Come on in and get a massage and feel BETTER!
