Meet Our Healing Arts Practitioners
Angela Bothwell, CMT
|
Massage Therapy
Angela Bothwell is a State Certified Massage Therapist, Reiki Therapist and Qi Gong Teacher. She has a B.A. in Art from C.S.U.L.B. and is a graduate of the Touch Therapy Institute in Encino, CA. She has studied Bodywork, Acupressure, Energy Therapies, and Holistic Healing extensively. Angela has given well over 10,000 massages during the last 20 years of full time practice and has highly-developed, tactile sensitivity. This gives her the ability to work in a very detailed and intuitive way. As an Ashiatsu, Deep Tissue and Therapeutic Specialist, Angela has extensive experience treating chronic pain, injuries, stress and energy blockage. Her work is based not only on an understanding of anatomy & physiology, but also on an understanding of energy. Addressing the subtle energy body means that treatments are not only physical but also energetic. This type of experience can be much deeper than other forms of manual therapy. Additionally, Angela is a bodywork artist who needs access to all her "tools" in order to provide you with the absolute best treatment she has to offer. If Traditional Massage is strictly your preference, and you don't want to experience Ashiatsu, Angela is happy to refer you to Shawna Timmerman.
