Meet the Team
Chris, LMT
Chris is our blind massage therapist. After losing his vision completely in late 2014, he pushed on and attended Blue Cliff College. He graduated top of his class receiving awards for 4.0 GPA, honors, and the Outstanding Merit award. His focus has been NMT, myofascial release, and deep tissue. He focuses on resetting the body back to correct anatomical position while alleviating pain and stress. He is a New Orleans native, loves fishing, and has 3 boys and a stepson with his partner Connie. He also travels with his guide dog Aiko. Chris has accumulated thousands of hours refining his technique to a fine-tuned balance of NMT, myofascial release, resetting the body and deep tissue to achieve a great balance of therapeutic and stress relief in one shot. He is an expert dealing with migraines, TMJ, pain anywhere in the body, full body stretching, medical focuses, and very specific across the body. No single session is ever the same.

Shannon, LMT
Shannon is a Bluecliff graduate and licensed massage therapist as of 2016, but she fell in love with helping others with her powerful physical touch years before then. She was drawn to massage therapy as a career once she realized her hands provided relief from pain to her loved ones and put her children straight to sleep at night. Shannon continues to fine tune her craft and educate herself to best aid your recovery; she is now CERTIFIED in POST-OP LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE massages and lymphatic detox massages- the latter being one of her favorite services. She relishes the simplicity of a lymphatic detox and appreciates anything that boosts immunity and cleanses toxins from the entire system.
Are you having neck and shoulder pain? Shannon says book a traditional therapeutic with her- give her healing hands a shot, and your body will thank you.
