Growing up in a home that understood the value of massage, Roxanne started giving massages at an early age.  When she was in the 3rd grade she knew she wanted to help people feel better, and decided to become a cosmetologist.  It was while becoming a licensed cosmetologist that she received her first formal training of massage and experienced how much it benefited her clients. Then in 1995 she moved to Simi Valley, got married, and raised her family there.  And it was in Simi that she decided to follow her passion and become a massage therapist.  In February of 1998, Roxanne graduated from the Touch Therapy Institute, in Encino CA. and became a Licensed and California State Certified Massage Therapist. As a professional massage therapist for more than 23 years, Roxanne has been helping her clients to regain pain free movement and better health.  She has a unique ability to be able to listen not only to what you tell her, but also intuitively listen to what your muscles are telling her.  She combines techniques ranging from very light pressure for a soothing, relaxing and restorative massage -  to very deep muscle pressure and stretching to help restore the body to a healthier, more balanced and functional state. Although Roxanne may provide gentle  and soothing massages, she is best known for helping people get their muscles mobility back by targeting muscle knots (trigger points),  and area's of pain or discomfort.  Whether the client is a pregnant mom, an office worker, a weekend athlete, or someone who is feeling the tensions of day-to-day life; Roxanne customizes each massage for her clients current needs and concerns. Since 1998 Roxanne has been helping clients heal in her private practice, clinic setting, chiropractic and acupuncture offices.  Now she is happy to be working with the dynamic group at Permatech Permanent Makeup Studios and would be honored to help you as your massage therapist.   Education:    Over 600 hours of documented Massage Education Including areas of; Advanced Swedish Strokes , Fibromyalgia & Muscle Pain, CranioSacral , Abdominal Visceral Manipulation , Acupressure , Trigger Point Therapy, Pre- and Perinatal, Infant & Geriatric techniques, TMJ, Lomi-Lomi, Chakra Balance, Integration of  Orthopedic Assessment & Treatments Credentials: California Massage Therapy Council Certificate Number #70946 City of Simi Valley Massage Therapist I.D. # 40331-01 Member of Associated Bodywork & Massage Professions
