Everyone who exercises has a few reasons for doing it, but usually there’s one that stands out the most. I was a Massage Therapist before I was a triathlete. I didn’t even think of doing a Triathlon until I did post-race massages at the Pacific Coast Triathlon in Newport Beach in 2001. I got so inspired seeing the age-group women come across the finish line that I said to myself “Wow Kathy, maybe you could do that”! So, I started swimming biking and running, and here I am 10 years later. Whether it’s a 5k or a Century Bike ride, I love feeling the progression day to day, and the cyclical routine of the peak and taper.

Each of our therapists brings their own style and experience into the massage room.  Denise is a true out-doorsy gal! She loves activities that she can do with other people like Hiking.  She also did the Pacific Coast Triathlon this year, and 10 years ago! She also kayaks, and does SUP… you name it, she’s tried it!  Katcha has had years on the soccer field, and does pilates regularly. She’s very inspired in a team atmosphere. Patty loves lifting at the gym because she can go on her own schedule, and it keeps her fit, but her favorite thing to do is hike the bluffs with her sweet yellow lab.

You have your own sport, too. And your own reasons for doing it. Whatever it is you’re doing, if you need care you know you’re in good hands with a group of massage therapists who has vast experience from their own healthy lifestyles as well as years of professional experience of working with athletes of many sports in various settings.
