Cynthia Zikowski
Within several months of obtaining licensure in 2016, Cynthia began her career as a massage therapist and has never looked back. Cynthia can honestly say she loves what she does, and that she genuinely enjoys her “work”! Cynthia invests 100% of her capabilities in each and every session, never any less, to provide the treatment that is just right for that client. There are many elements to the art and science of therapeutic massage that Cynthia incorporates in crafting a treatment specifically tailored to each individual she treats. In addition to palpation skills and technique, intuition, intention, communication, mindfulness, and energy work are all tools that she utilizes. For Cynthia, there is no greater sense of accomplishment and joy than to have her client say, “That is the best massage I’ve ever had”, and that is the experience she strives to provide in every session!
Cynthia’s interest in massage led her to obtain an Associate’s Degree in Therapeutic Massage in 2017. Along the way, thanks to a wonderful teacher, Cynthia began her journey as a Reiki practitioner and has recently completed training as a Reiki Master Practitioner/Teacher. She has worked in social services for many years and still does. Always fascinated by psychology, she has earned a Master of Arts Degree in Clinical Psychology. Cynthia’s future goals are to become a certified Shiatsu practitioner and to obtain licensure as a Professional Counselor, with which she hopes to specialize in bereavement counseling and hospice work. Cynthia has a soft spot for animals & pets, especially dogs. She greatly enjoys the beauty of nature, and she loves to capture that beauty with photography. The virtues Cynthia values most are loyalty, honesty, and kindness. She believes we are here on this earth with a mission: to use whatever talents we were given to care for, value, and share with each other.

Camille Brittnum
Camille began her health and wellness journey in 2015 when she started having health issues arise at a
young age. She found herself unclear on the best practices for natural wellness and began her research.
In the process of discovering ways for natural healing she started her yoga practice and enjoyed learning
the benefits of different postures and how the body reacts to different poses. She started to take a closer
look at the anatomy of the body and natural ways to heal it. Camille attended Soma Institute specializing
in Clinical Massage Therapy and Sports Massage. Coming out of school she strives to blend the art of
yoga practice and massage therapy. Camille is diligent, compassionate and wants the best for her clients;
she believes with consistent focus and full bodywork, maintaining consistent physical exercise, proper
nutrition, and mental meditation, any ailment can be remedied. By healing the body in natural ways we
are able to reach a level of holistic wellness that is long lasting. Camille enjoys learning about natural
herbs and oils, she is excited to start a new journey in helping and healing by educating one client at a
time.
