Michelle Pond
Michelle offers massage and reflexology at our wellness center. Her desire for health in wellness at a young age inspired her to attend and graduate from Advanced Fuller’s School of Massage in 2006. She deeply believes in the power of touch and her approach is to deliver a service that calms the mind, spirit, and refreshes.
Reflexology is not only a wonderful technique to help sore feet but also assists in the total health of the body. It helps the body by pressure points in the feet which correlates to different areas of the body. It can balance energy flow throughout the body and alleviate ailments through foot reflexology. Reflexology is a wonderful service to treat yourself as a whole and wellness journey here at Body Kinect.
