Vickie DesRosiers

Vickie is a recent graduate of The Center for Natural Wellness School of Massage where she learned the art of Swedish massage and how massage techniques/modalities can help the body return to its natural state of balance with a holistic approach. She also has had 90 hours of training in the Japanese practice of Shiatsu which is based on the concepts of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Shiatsu is a form of massage that utilizes the hands, thumbs, or other body parts to apply direct pressure on various points or channels in the body. Shiatsu is practiced on the floor with the client fully clothed and involves no oils or lotions. Vickie also received training in Neuromuscular Therapy (trigger/tender points), Cranio-Sacral Therapy (CST), Myofascial Release (MFR), Polarity (Energy work) and integrates these modalities into her Swedish massage sessions based on the individuals needs and goals for each session.In addition to massage therapy, Vickie is a 200hr certified yoga teacher through Yoga Alliance and a USUI/HOLY FIRE III level II Reiki Practitioner.Vickie is passionate about using each of the massage, energetic and manual therapy techniques to help every-BODY return to its natural state of balance. She believes that every-BODY knows how to heal itself and loves helping every-BODY find a feeling of relaxation and wellness from within their BODY. In her spare time, you may find Vickie at a local yoga studio, listening to live local musicians, enjoying time in nature or with her family.
