My Story

I originally set out to be a genetic counselor, and received my Bachelor's in Science in Biology. However after a few years of sitting behind a desk and realizing graduate school was extremely competitive and expensive, I decide to pursue my massage therapy license instead. I made the transition from traditional desk job to massage therapist in 2015. I love being a massage therapist and providing that space-holding and 1-on-1 interaction. Being an introvert, I was much happier being on the giving end of stress-relief instead of being the cause as I sometimes felt as a receptionist and reducing my overall interactions so I could genuinely connect with people.

Over the years I have worked at many different massage establishments, went back to working at a desk part-time at an alternative wellness company in Florida while running my own mobile massage practice, and eventually made my way to Arizona right before Covid hit. I had barely settled down in Phoenix before I was out of work. After the stress of recovering from the shutdown, I decided to take a big break from massage altogether and went against my instincts to be a call-center representative for 1.5 years. Finally in late 2022 I had enough, and went back to massage with fresh passion and thankful most of the craziness was over.

I have just moved to Casa Grande, and realized how much massage therapists are needed here! I am so thankful to join Nicole and Jahaira as they welcomed me with open arms to their place, and I'm looking forward to serving everyone as best I can.

With love and light,

Amanda Joy
