Cynthia grew up in a small town in North Dakota. She loves the outdoors as well as baking bread or trying out a new recipe for family or friends. Her interests include short and long-distance running, hiking, spending time with family, board games, traveling abroad, or going to a serene lake cabin where she can relax on a boat with a good book or a fishing pole. She loves staying active and providing a service of value to others. Whether in her personal or professional life, or volunteering for a cause she is passionate about promoting health and wellness.

She has always been drawn to the healthcare field. Her path to therapeutic massage was a natural progression as she had already learned some basic massage techniques while obtaining her Bachelor of Nursing degree. Understanding the value of human touch and presence, she provided an evening massage to her patients while working in the hospital. She found patients would often use that time to share concerns and ask questions about their health they may not have otherwise. In return, she was able to offer reassurance, encouragement, and education. Many years later, she became certified in therapeutic massage as a second career.

One of her favorite challenges of this second career is evaluating each client’s unique needs and implementing techniques specific to that individual. She listens to each client’s questions, concerns, and reasons for pursuing therapeutic massage, feeling this is vital in developing a mutually agreed upon team approach and working towards meeting their overall health and wellness goals.

She is experienced in providing orthopedic and pain management massages, therapeutic trigger point release, and general therapeutic relaxation massages. Her professional interests include sports injuries, chronic pain or illness, overuse or repetitive strain injury and rehabilitation, geriatrics, fibromyalgia, prenatal, general wellness, and prevention.

“Knowing that there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach is both the challenge and the benefit I love in this line of work.”

Her practice philosophy sounds simple as she states she “is committed to a team approach between client and therapist working together toward a renewed sense of wellness and balance.” But her education and passion for helping drive results from that commitment.
