Meet Brooke

I was born, raised and currently live in Utah. I love and cherish the deep roots I have here.  My passions include...

First my family: I am number 10 of 13 siblings, each of which have children and some of them, grandchildren. I am the eccentric auntie B who has an adoring husband and 3 little doggies.

Second is my community: My husband and I live in a town home complex in Salt Lake City and serve on our HOA board because I love to create comradery with my neighbors.  I also served on the board of the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) and regularly attend the board of massage therapy meetings to stay involved and up to date on legislations and best practices. 

Third, my education: Here is an updated complete list of all the trainings I have attended and certifications I have received. On top of that I teach and train new therapist through apprenticeships. I teach because, "To truly understand something you must be able to explain it simply." ~Albert Einstein   and my lifetime goal is to truly understand how and why somatic therapy is so valuable. I love to read, research and learn.

I am mostly a homebody, but I also enjoy snowboarding, camping, concerts, road trips, scary movies, and food.  

My journey into the manual therapy and bodywork field was not a straight one.  As a kid, I wanted to be a massage therapist when I grew up.  My well intending parents counseled me that an office job would be a safer choice.  I started my adult life by getting married and worked in various office administrator jobs, yet I still dabbled in the massage therapy world with friends and family. When I got divorced in my late 20's I needed to re define what I wanted for my life. A dear friend showed me a video that I took to heart...

“What makes you itch? How would you enjoy spending your life? Whatever it is, you have got to do that. Because if you go to school to learn how to do something you don’t like doing just to go on to do something you don’t like doing, is just stupid. If you really do enjoy what you’re doing, no matter what it is, you will eventually become a master of your craft, and that’s the best way to spend your life.”    ~Alan Watts

And the rest is history. I am so grateful that I get to do what I do.  Feel free to contact me with any further questions about what I do and how I can possibly help you in your healing journey.
