Logan Boothe

LMBT 21170

As a LMT Logan has gone above and beyond an ordinary education. Driven by personal passion he has traveled the world studying under different teachers in order to understand the body-mind in its proper alignment and common dysfunctions.

With a wide range of tools and techniques, we will work together to evoke ultimate serenity, stability, and self-awareness in order to enhance the body’s innate wisdom so that we may better live a life free of pointless stress and restrictive tensions. As we work with the tissues and deep anatomy of the body we are also working with the mind. Realizing and releasing outdated patterns of behavior creates a new way in which we interact with ourselves and the world around us.

Victoria Winchester

LMBT 18783

My primary goal with every client is to make them feel comfortable and safe so they can truly enjoy and benefit from their treatment. Unconditional positive regard is at the heart of every session. My style blends relaxation with deeper work, and it is highly adjustable. I am certified in Thai Yoga Bodywork for those seeking a more holistic & unique approach to massage. I thank my teacher, Michael Sitzer, for his stellar training in Asheville, NC. Thai Bodywork greatly influences my table sessions, which can include stretches, deep compressions, acupressure, traction, heat, and aromatherapy. I attended the Therapeutic Massage Training Institute in Dilworth in 2019 under local instructors from the fields of massage therapy & research, yoga therapy, physical therapy, and chiropractic.
