Clubs: I went to CF and that is where my friends are so I added it here. I really graduated from Waverly/ Shell rock my last year of school.
I got into Massage Therapy because I love helping people feel better. I was a carpet and wood floor installer for 15 years and the job became to hard on my body. I developed a knee injury that prevented me from continuing. I decided to do something less stressfull and became a massage therapist so that I can help others who deal with pain. Massage has really helped me. I used to walk with a cane and know because of massage I don't have to anymore.
Massage also helped me to help my wife. She had a bad accident leaving her with a frozen shoulder and limited range of motion in her neck and shoulder. I learned a massage technique called orthopedic sport massage from James Waslaski and was able to release her shoulder and neck. She regained about 90% of her ability to move her neck and shoulder. Massage can make a huge difference in peoples lives.
My wife and I have three businesses now. I work at Advanced Massage Clinic in Waterloo, IA where I share an office with Dr. Gary Sherman. Gary is an awesome Chiropractor.
Lori and I run a business together online. We have an ebay store for massage therapy and a website for massage. Please visit us at www.massagevillage.com
Lori has a business called Kooky Karaoke and I help her with shows. It is fun. You can see more about that at www.myspace.com/kookykaraoke
