Chapter 1.

The Downtown Studio.

By the winter of 2014, I had been in business as a massage therapist for three years, providing massage in my home, or scheduling my services as outcalls. While working on and off as an electrician, I continued to build my practice.

To me an office space demonstrates a level of commitment and professionalism. As my practice expanded, I began renting shared space, moving several times in search of a better location, and a more welcoming space.

Finally m,y vision of HUGE south-facing windows and an abundance of sunlight was realized in downtown Portland in the Fine Arts Building. At last, my own space! I could create my own healing atmosphere. Emphasizing a clean, bright, fresh vibe.
