Erin VanGorder, LMT

Coming from a background in medicine, Erin is driven in massage by her passion for helping others. Alternating between nursing and massage therapy, she graduated from Great Lakes Institute of Technology in 2022, and immediately began growing her knowledge with modalities such as Lomilomi. She loves to apply her thirst for knowledge to work and hobbies, reading up on American history, anatomy, and new massage techniques she can add to her tools.

Through her job, she wants to promote the message of individuality, confidence, and self-love above all. She brings out the chatty side in people, getting rid of bad moods and back problems! She uses the new things she learns for chronic pain and injury treatment, especially in the neck, back and shoulders.

"My absolute favorite place is the ocean. I love the salty air, the unpredictability of the waves, and the roar of the water as a new cycle begins with the wave's push and pull. The feeling of the sand around my feet, and as it falls from my hands around my fingers. In a world viewed like an hourglass of sand, where we have to hurry to live.. slow down and realize the beauty life has to offer us. Look down a beach and take in the fact that life has to offer us endless possibilities -- you just have to believe in yourself."
