Introduction: My name is Rachel Itkowitz. I have been a licensed Massage Therapist for eleven years. I received my education from the Healing Hands Institute for Massage Therapy in Westwood, NJ. I have worked in the spa industry for eight and a half years. I am currently working in a wellness facility focusing on medical massage techniques to provide relief from muscle and joint pain, tension, and repetitive stress injuries. My background in exercise and fitness allows me to relate to the muscle soreness and fatigue that comes with working out, as well as the need to restore muscle length through stretching. With my knowledge of spa and medical massage, I am able to better benefit my clients. Whether you want to relax or decrease pain and improve range of motion, massage should be an essential part of maintaining a healthy life style.
Helping people is one of my biggest joys. Massage Therapy is one of the few professions that is almost always rewarding. It is nice to see progress in my clients health and well being over several sessions. Less pain and less stress leads to clients feeling better and living more productive lives. Meeting new people and developing a personal relationship with them is also something I really enjoy. I look forward to meeting you and helping you feel your best.
