"I've been a Licensed Massage Therapist since June 2015.
Before entering the massage therapy profession, I worked primarily in the mental health field, including a women's inpatient detox facility, a group home for adults with mental illness, and a group home for girls ages 12-18 in state custody. Through those experiences, I saw firsthand how physical pain can affect emotional well-being, which led me to develop a passion for working with clients experiencing chronic pain, complex conditions, and autoimmune disorders.
After completing the 650-hour program at Pennsylvania Institute of Massage Therapy, I continued my education with more than 125 hours of advanced medical massage training. My work centers on clinical massage therapy, including neuromuscular therapy, cupping, instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (muscle scraping), active isolated stretching, myofascial techniques, and heat therapy.
In 2018, my husband Robert and I opened Greenleaf Soft Tissue Therapy in Bangor, Pennsylvania with the goal of helping as many people as possible find relief from pain and improve their quality of life. After several successful years serving our community, we relocated our family to Central Missouri in January 2022 and opened Olive Branch Clinical Massage Therapy later that year.
While establishing our practice in Missouri, I continued managing the Pennsylvania business until its sale in March 2024. The experience of owning, operating, and growing a successful massage practice in two states has given me a deep appreciation for both the clinical and professional sides of this field.
Today, in addition to serving clients through Olive Branch Clinical Massage Therapy, I also teach through the Apprenticeship Training Program. Sharing clinical knowledge, professional skills, and real-world experience with future massage therapists has become one of the most rewarding aspects of my career.
Thank you for choosing Olive Branch Clinical Massage Therapy. It is a privilege to be part of your wellness journey."

I’ve been a Licensed Massage Therapist since April 2013.
Massage has been a secondary profession, as I’ve worked full-time in Healthcare Administration for the Department of Defense since 2008. I was a U.S. Navy Corpsman prior to that from 2002-2008. I have always enjoyed the healthcare sector and find it very rewarding to help others improve their physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health.
Since completing the initial 600-hour program at Potomac Massage Training Institute to obtain my professional licensure, I have pursued an additional 75 continuing education hours in prenatal massage, essential oils, cupping, and stretching. I am proficient in Swedish, Prenatal, and Deep Tissue. I will often use Active Isolated Stretching, Heat Therapy, and Aromatherapy in sessions as well.
I am excited to join Olive Branch CMT and look forward to serving the needs of my clients with dignity, respect, and an open heart.

My name is Robert, but most people call me Bobby. I've been a Licensed Massage Therapist since June 2016 and graduated from Lansdale School of Business' 600-hour Massage Therapy program. There we studied a variety of massage modalities with a focus on clinical applications aimed towards stress and pain relief. It was during this time that I also found my passion for botanical oils and herbs with a role in the healing process. In January of 2013, I was involved in a hit and run motor vehicle accident, while riding my bicycle home from work that evening. This traumatic event has caused me immense pain, both physically and mentally. I was in a real rut when my wonderful wife, Marissa, began to attend massage school. After her first few demonstrations and practices on myself, I knew what I wanted to do with the rest of my life, alongside her. I believe that it's this personal connection with a traumatic injury that helps to feed my intuitive abilities in bodywork. I look forward to working with you.
