My name is Faithea McKibbin I am a licensed massage therapist, graduate of Sarasota School of Massage Therapy in 2006 and have practiced Massage Therapy for 20 years. I am an Army veteran, a graduate of the Academy of Health Sciences as a Behavioral Science Specialist and Field Medic. I have also practiced as an Orthodontic Technician and Lab Technician fabricating and placing Orthodontic appliances that helped correct deformities of the mouth and face. I have practiced in the medical field for over 30 years.
Over the years I had several severe injuries and I was amazed with the life changing results of my own personal experience with Thesrapeutic Massage. I had to know more and share the miracle with everyone!
In 2004 I enrolled in the Sarasota School of Massage Therapy. I came into the program thinking I would only need to know how to “rub someone down.” There is so much more!
The body become this amazing miracle of a machine. Understanding how the systems work I can manipulate the system to relax the nervous system, relax muscles, create balance or release pain reducing/relaxing hormones. Massage is so much more than rubbing someone down.
I still find Massage Therapy fascinating and mentally engaging after 20 years. It never gets boring. I am amazed every day I get to work with people and their bodies. I love helping in the healing process and contributing to improving the quality of life. The body truly is amazing!
