Meet our Massage Therapists

Licensed Massage Therapist, Owner

In 2017 we opened The Muscle Therapy Massage Center in hopes of combining a therapeutic based massage practice with a relaxing and healing space. I graduated from McCann School of Business and Technology with an Associates Degree in Professional Massage Therapy. I have been practicing for over 10 years and am a AMTA member. I specialize in healing sports related injuries, relieving acute or chronic pain by using trigger point therapy and therapeutic deep tissue techniques. I am also certified in Cupping, Gua Sha, Prenatal, Hot Stone Therapy, Craniosacral, and Neuromuscular therapy.

Licensed Massage Therapist, Owner

Ellen graduated from The National Academy of Massage Therapy and Healing Sciences in 2009 with a certification to practice therapeutic massage.  From there, she obtained national certification with the NCBTMB, and eventually grandfathered in to Pennsylvania licensing laws when they were officially required in 2011.  At the start of her career as a therapist, she worked in a variety of settings including salons, wellness centers, and chiropractic facilities.  She ultimately settled with the consistency provided by a local franchise, but always dreamed of a more personal setting for herself and her clientele. 

Ellen specializes in treating persistent pain including, but not limited to, chronic neck, shoulder, or lower back pain, migraines or headaches, carpal tunnel, thoracic outlet, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, arthritis, and fibromyalgia.  She is well versed in a variety of massage techniques and modalities such as Swedish, deep tissue, trigger point, prenatal, hot stone,

cross fiber friction, neuromuscular therapy, Gua Sha, cupping, and craniosacaral.

On a personal note, that massage franchise introduced Ellen to the best business partner a girl could ask for, and The Muscle Therapy Massage Center was born!  It was here that they both could not only develop a deeper and more personalized approach to therapeutic massage, but could also begin to offer a "home" to other therapists who had the same mind set.
