Hello Massage Lovers!

I got started doing bodywork when I was 11 years old because my Mother was injured as a police officer while she was making an arrest on a bad guy she was dragged and tossed from a veichle travelling at 50mph. She suffered some pretty serious injuries to her whole body but her spine took the worst hit. One day I was treating her and I felt this tingley sensation come in thru my hands,move thru my body and back out thru my hands..my Mom was startled and we both reacted at the same time.."what just happened?" we both said with wide eyes..... Needless to say Mom said.."that's it I am moving you back to MI. and putting you thru Massage School&THAT was what I did.

My training comes from a school in Port Huron,MI. called Lakewood School of Therapeutic Massage. While I was in school I was so eager to learn that I went out and took many continuing education classes in but not limited to;John Upledger's Cranial Sacral,Thai Massage,Tuina,Pregnancy bodywork,Reflexology,Shiatsu-etc. Before even graduating school I toured with a band on their Spring tour thru the NorthEast& that tour gave me alot of knowledge because each city we arrived in I got to work on the musicans who joined the band those evenings and that got me into working with famous ppl,I met actors and worked on film sets,went to NYC and worked on all the volunteers and Firemen,police officers,doctors,etc after 9/11....I knew then my heart was in this and nothing could stop me from being that giving nurturing person I have been my whole life-I now found an outlet to express my love for humans!

After moving back out of massage school to Chicago I found a Thai Massage therapist who was teaching his craft that he learned from a man who had been living and learning in Thailand for over 35 years. I was ONE of the very first MT's giving Thai Massage in Chicago!!

My knowledge of alot of different modalities allows me to treat just about any BODY and any ailment.

I love people...I love utilizing my gift of touch and it shows as I have been voted THE BEST Massage Therapist in Chicago for over a decade! I am humbled everyday and I am grateful everyday. Thank you Chicago for allowing me to give back. I welcOMe you to visit me for a session or 2 or 10...I am pretty good at healing you just after one session. I can give you whatever you need as I taylor the session to suit your body needs.

Much Metta Always~Laurie A. DeMeyer
