Started this business while still in massage school and working full time as a restaurant manager & server.
Fast forward 14 years... I've had hundreds of clients. I've met great people that I've spent a lot of time with one on one. Some spanning several years. When we moved, I was sad to lose these relationships but so happy I had good therapist friends in A2 that they could continue with. Thanks Amy & MaryAnn Evans-Lutz
Now, I've done the same again here in Manistee. So grateful for Dennielle Beachside Massage & Active Living Lena at Time to Relax Massage Therapy and Alissa ASBodywork

I will be keeping my license, it's true. I will see just a few medical clients but most of my days will be working at our stores & managing our rental. And...going forward, the plan is to slow down 😆 and enjoy this beautiful place we get to live in!!

I'll be deleting this page soon. If you're still in need of a referral or wanna get a coffee sometime, text me 734-890-7744 or pop in & say HI
Thank you for trusting me with your care

Last day & mixed emotions. Loved working with the ladies at BLACK LOTUS Salon & Wellness but this girl is busy. Very grateful the hard work is paying off

Gonna hit 53 y/o later in August with just 3 jobs. Yay, me 🤣

Thank you to one of my previous clients for the 3D Stewie for our toy store. I've truly met the best people on this massage journey. Thanks, Spike

The amount of laundry I have done EACH year (in loads) for the last 4 years in Manistee. And double that for the years I had my practice in A2

I officially retire Wednesday, July 31 and I won't miss this part.

It's with mixed emotions that I want to announce that I'm retiring from massage this spring/summer.
When we opened the toy store & made final plans to buy the Emporium building, the idea was for me to retire in about 2 years.
Things are going well. So well that we can't do it all comfortably at the level that we demand of ourselves. But we can afford to start paying me from the other businesses now. So, that means it is the right time, although earlier than planned. It's a good problem to have and we are grateful for all the success here in Manistee.
I will be keeping my license current and will continue seeing my medical clients and doing distance Reiki only.

Thank you to all my clients in both Ann Arbor & Manistee. I'm so grateful. I've made some lifelong friends along this journey and I've enjoyed this work so much. I hope our paths continue to cross.
