Aya Hetland
LMT
Hello, My name is Aya, I was born and in Japan. I graduated from a Japanese massage school in 2018 and specialized in Seitai and Reflexology. After three years of massage experience, in Japan(early 2018) and Germany (late 2018-2020), I decided to attend to an LMT program in the states, I graduated from Bodymechanics school of Myotherapy and Massage School in 2022. My main focus is to see improvements after each session with you. My strengths are mixing in breathing techniques to induce a healing mind. I am focused on treatment work that can relax your mind. In our session I'd like you to take a moment of respite from your busy daily life in order to talk to your body, and to stimulate your own healing process. I'm happy to talk to you and work with you to find the best treatment plan for you. Thank you!
