Tricia Heimbach, LMT, RTT, RYT

Tricia has studied and apprenticed Thai Yoga Massage with Hillary O. Hilliard.   Tricia brings her yoga and Chinese Medicine backgrounds to each of her Thai Yoga Massage sessions.  She is skilled and passionate about bringing awareness and wellness to each person she works with.  For over 10 years Tricia has been practicing and teaching yoga.  She is also currently pursuing her Master's Degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine.  I'd like to remind my clients and students that yoga as well as Traditional Thai Yoga Body Work sessions go beyond the mat. It is about finding your 'flow' each and everyday, and sharing your sense of peace and well being with others. With that, they too can slow down, find their breath, and enjoy a healthy long life.
