Bonnie is a graduate of the West Coast College of Massage Therapy (WCCMT) in 1990 and attributes her continuing education study of Neuromuscular Therapy, the St. John Method early in her career with many of the techniques that have relieved pain and increased function for her patients.
Bonnie has taught Introduction to Massage Therapy classes, worked as a Teaching Assistant at WCCMT, and taught infant massage locally. She continues to use education as part of her treatment strategy, believing that we are empowered when we understand the holistic nature of our bodies.
