“Hello,

Thanks for reading my bio!  My name is Kelly Butterfield and I have been a licensed massage therapist since 2014.  I began my practice after graduating from the venerated Baltimore school of massage, and I am trained in nine plus modalities.

My style has been informed by my practice and experiences in an array of environments, ranging from chiropractic offices, to corporate massage clinics, high-end day spas, and corporate work places. I am highly skilled at providing therapeutic and customized deep tissue massages for clients who are experiencing work-related injuries and traumas.  I am also sensitive to the needs of each patient as an individual and understand that communication is key.  I will check in several times throughout the session to ensure that I am consistently addressing problem areas, and areas that I believe may be referral zones for corresponding pain and/or postural issues, in addition to happily adjusting pressure to your comfort level.  My approach is to first listen, hold space, and then conduct both well-thought out and intuitive treatment plans each and every time.

I hold a bachelors degree in Humanities studies and am currently in school for my Masters degree in Teaching.  When I am not busy working at the wonderful Lakegrove Wellness clinic, you may likely find me teaching hot yoga, meditating, hiking, discovering new music, dreaming up big plans, or drinking Kombucha.  See you on the table!

Love and strength,

Kelly”

Angela has been an MT since April of 2011. She was introduced to Sports Massage at the end of her schooling and knew that was what her focus was going to be. Along with several other modalities that she practiced she tried several different massage settings the first couple years following school.  Working with athletes in a sports medicine clinic was her home for nearly six years.

Angela’s expertise is deep focus work. She wants to help enhance her clients’ performance whether that be at work, a sport, or just everyday life. Working on postural issues along with stretching. Setting up treatment plans tailored to each client’s needs and goals. Calming the mind to help calm the body to relax and let go is what she strives for during each session. Treating the body as a whole – mind, body, and spirit – is key. Self-care is taking care of yourself! She believes investing in yourself is the best investment you’ll ever make.

Joyce is a native Oregonian and was born in Astoria, Oregon. She grew up in the Portland area and attended Alameda Grade School, Grant High School and graduated from Marylhurst University with a bachelor’s in interdisciplinary studies in Psychology, Communication and Art. She has two daughters and three grandchildren and spends as much time with family as possible.

“Massage has always been a healing journey for me and as I learn and grow, I heal on many levels, creating balance in my life. It has always been my purpose to share with others what I have learned and I look forward to meeting you here at Lake Grove Wellness Center.”

She gradated from the Oregon School of Massage in 1990 while working with Dr. Arthur Parker a TMJ specialist in Portland, Oregon. She was introduced to Cranial Sacral Therapy as an adjunct practice to help patients with their misalignment and pain.

Joyce studied with John Upledger, Carol Gray LMT and at Bastyr College in Washington in the CranioSacral system of healing learning to detect areas of restriction with light touch, not unlike a pulse, to unwind those areas to increase energy, and to help the nervous system to relax. She also finished a two-year program with Robin Michelle Jones in the Biodynamic CranioSacral course to gain a deeper understanding of the relationship between trauma, physical, emotional pain and health.

Joyce brings together many years of study and practice in myofascial release, Trigger Point Therapy, Swedish, cupping, CranioSacral Therapy and Reiki, and incorporates these modalities into her healing sessions.
She is also available to do remote healings through the Reiki Healing System and this information can be found on her website at www. Healing Bridge Integrative Wellness.

On her days off she paints, reads, and spends time with family and friends.

Lola was born in raised in our beautiful state of Oregon, living the best of both worlds in the city and country off and on throughout the years. She attended the University of Western States to study Massage Therapy, then worked as a Chiropractic Assistant before going on to become a full time Massage Therapist.

Her massage modalities consist of deep tissue, myofascial release, muscle energy techniques, sports, trigger point and cupping.

Lola developed a deep sense of empathy, nurturing, and resiliency from working on her mother’s aches and pains, and this in turn influenced her to pursue her career in Massage.

She loves to spend time with loved ones, hike, draw, read, watch movies, play video games, attend concerts, and fish.

“Massage is an intimate form of healing both physically and mentally, giving people a deeper understanding of their own body. We are with our bodies every day of our lives. Let’s enjoy life by having our bodies function at their best! I love what I do, and I’m privileged to be a part of people’s journey to better health.”

My name is Monica Bradley and I have been practicing bodywork for 25 years. I originally went to massage school in Denver, CO where I am from. I moved to Seattle, WA in 2000 and moved to Portland recently in Oct of 2022. I am passionate about self care and believe bodywork is a great form to keep us mobile, relieve pain and help decrease stress. I love the outdoors and hope to remain active for the rest of my life. Bodywork helps me to give back to my body from the physical demands of life. I also enjoy learning new modalities and am always excited to learn more about the human body. Fascia has been my latest area of study and I am fascinated that treating the fascial system can treat the muscular, nervous system, skeletal system, organs and the brain for a complete body tune up. 

Modalities practiced: Bowen, Tensegrity Medicine, massage cupping, intra-oral massage, Neuromuscular massage
