My Story

Megan Sherman, LMT

I love working with people to find recovery from pain, increase joint mobility, and find ease in movement and life. I became a believer in the effectiveness of massage while moving large salmon around for the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. Working with a massage therapist I found long-term recovery from repetitive use injury without having to take the path of more serious and costly intervention (though I believe there is a time and place for those options and I am glad they exist!) I also realized my passion for supporting others in addressing stress and strain in their bodies. Since my first massage training at Heartwood Institute in 2003, I have studied at the San Francisco School of Bodywork and Massage, Esalen Institute, the Soma Institute, among others.
