Pamela Rapinan Lic # MA00020312

My name is Pamela Rapinan, some of you know me as “Raven.” I taught kinesiology (the study of muscles and movement) at Ashmead Massage School where I graduated with honors in 2006. I discovered the healing properties of massage following my own serious car accident where massage was the only and best form of relief I found. This in turn got me interested in muscles, how they worked, and massage and how it could help patients recover from injuries. This is why I specialize in deep tissue treatment medical massage and sports injury massage. I also perform Lomi Lomi Hawaiian Massage, Native American Energy Work, Reiki, Hot Stones, Cupping (negative pressure treatments), Pregnancy Massage, and I work with children and babies too!

Prevention and wellness are the long tem goals of greatest importance that I try to impress upon my clients. I believe in empowering clients to learn to heal themselves. I feel it is important to listen to the client, establish achievable goals, and help the client reach those goals. The individuals whole well being is my goal. I understand and value my client’s therapeutic needs and am committed in providing a safe, caring, healing environment for their therapeutic massage/energy work treatments. Join me on my journey to understand the bodies natural potential to heal with massage and energy work. I look forward to giving you your next healing massage because if you think you need a massage…You Do!

Tara Melton Lic # MA60063240

I graduated in 2008 from Everest College, certifying in Massage therapy and Spa therapies. I chose massage therapy because massage is a lifelong career in a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere, where I meet new people everyday and I’m always learning something new. I love giving massage, sometimes it’s just as relaxing as receiving one! I specialize in deep tissue, injury treatment, pregnancy massage, relaxation massage, hot stone massage and aromatherapy massage. During my free time I enjoy the great outdoors with my children and dogs.

Kala Zimmermann, LMP Lic #MA00022889

My name is Kala Zimermann and I have been practicing Massage Therapy for 5 years. I graduated from Heath Works Institute in Bozeman, Montana in 2005, and due to the active outdoor community in Bozeman and a passion for sports rehab and injury treatment, I have focused my massage training and work on athletes maintenance during training and recovery from injury. In 2007 I lived in northern Thailand while learning Thai massage at the Thai Massage School of Chiang Mai. This style of massage has added a great deal of variety to my practice, whether it is during a deep tissue table massage or a Thai massage session done on mats, I am able to incorporate more stretching and a better understanding of discomfort and tension that may be felt in one area of the body, but is originating somewhere else. I believe that in order to decrease discomfort and tension you must treat the root problem, not just the pain.

I specialize in Injury Treatment: Neuromuscular therapy (trigger point therapy), Myofascial Release, Deep Tissue massage, Thai massage, Hot Stone massage, Pregnancy massage and Swedish massage.

Sarah Pike, LMP Lic #MA60114773

My Name is Sarah Pike. I graduated from Everest College in 2009. I discovered my passion for massage when I was 12 years old, working for my mother’s cleaning business. One of our jobs was a massage clinic and I loved the peaceful and serene atmosphere. My passion for massage comes from the feeling of fulfillment when I am able to help a client achieve a better quality of living. Whether it be to relax from a stressful day, or to help heal from an injury. Nothing can replace the feeling that comes from a client saying thank you. I specialize in injury treatment as well as negative pressure massage (also known as Cupping Therapy). I have been working at Edmonds Massage center since November 2009. I look forward to meeting and working with you!

Kelly Kozelisky, LMP Lic #MA00012309

I graduated from Seattle Massage School in 1998. After an injury in 1997, I received massage from an intern while I was still in the hospital. Those 15 minutes gave me a new outlook on benefits of massage so I enrolled in school 2 months later. After graduation I worked in both clinical and spa settings, and quickly realized I wanted the best of both worlds so I opened Edmonds Massage Center in 2002. I specialize in Ashiatsu, deep tissue massage, injury treatment, pregnancy massage, hot stone massage, Cupping (negative pressure massage) and aromatherapy. When not in the clinic, I enjoy playing softball, camping, spending time on the boat with my boys, and taking naps!
