Vicki S. Winston, BHS, LMT  loves massage therapists. For over 20 years she has admired, educated, and motivated massage therapists in her East Tennessee community. Since 2001, she has practiced full time as a massage therapist in a variety of challenging and rewarding environments, in many cases working alongside former students who have become respected peers.  Vicki’s unique perspective helps her to determine how teams work, how they become dysfunctional, and how to set a course for recovery and success.  Experience tells her that supported therapists are more likely to work collaboratively and collectively to protect their community and their profession.  She has served in the past as President of the Tennessee Chapter of the American Massage Therapy Association, has 2 beautiful children, creates super fun podcasts with her beau, and can’t wait for the next exciting episode of Dragon Ball
