Message from Hazel
I have been working as a massage therapist, full-time, since 1980. With my background, I can adapt my work to the needs of the client to help them move towards and to maintain a stable state of wellness.

I have established two offices with a total of nine treatment rooms, and in addition to a part time massage schedule, I organize these offices and a team of about 30 therapists. My main focus now is to maintain these offices, creating professional and safe places for the therapists to achieve their goals.

I have recently become associated with the Alive! Whole Life Fitness Studio where James Bell and Taru Fisher offer a slow motion, high intensity method of strength training and Life Style Coaching. Working since November 2006, just two twenty minute sessions most every week, I am shaping up and becoming so much stronger and able to continue in my busy schedule.

We look forward to welcoming you to our offices.
