Please welcome our new massage therapist

Massage Therapist... James Conrad LMT, grew up in Wenatchee before setting off to explore the world. He graduated from the New Mexico Academy of Healing Arts in 2002 and began his career in high-end spa environments around Santa Fe. His path later led him to Austin, where he worked in both spa settings and alongside chiropractors. It was there that he discovered a passion for sports massage and therapeutic work, gaining valuable experience working with collegiate athletes.

In 2019, James returned to the Greater Wenatchee Area, bringing with him a broad skill set and a deep commitment to client care. His continuing education includes specialties such as Active Release Therapy, structural integration, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and Thai on the table.
​

James thrives on helping clients both prepare for and recover from surgery—guiding them through mobility work, strengthening, and recovery. Watching clients improve session by session reinforces his passion for the field. He’s excited to be part of your fitness journey and looks forward to helping you stay strong, mobile, and active.

Availability: Monday/Thursday/Friday 12PM-6PM

Massage Therapist...Cory Michael LMT,  began practicing massage in 1999 after graduating from Seattle Massage School at the end of 1998. Over the years, he has worked in many settings including massage clinics, in-home, corporate massage, public events, private events/retreats, sporting events & day cruises.

He is well versed in deep tissue, injury treatment as well as relaxation massage. "I believe that for any treatment massage to be effective it should be based in relaxation. Over the years I have found that a longer massage session has a greater and longer lasting benefit." 

Cory continues to further his education in nutrition, counseling and is a certified yoga instructor and enjoys the outdoors, spending time with his wife, traveling, cooking and playing too much pickleball!

MASSAGE THERAPY

Massage is...Stretching and kneading motions applied directly to the muscles to stimulate the nervous system and instruct the muscles to relax. By flushing muscles of built-up waste products, massage decreases soreness after vigorous exercise. It can treat injuries such as muscle strains and tendinitis. It reduces inflammation by stimulating the circulatory and lymphatic systems to bring nutrition to the injured area and remove waste products.

​Massage can help enhance body awareness, and improve your health in many ways. It is an effective and recognized modality for maintaining your body and health. 
 
​

TYPES OF MASSAGE

Swedish Massage Use of seven categories of strokes designed to increase circulation and ease muscle tension.
Deep Tissue Massage Techniques directed toward the deeper tissue structures of the muscle and connective tissue.
Sports Massage Designed to aid the healing process after a physical activity to prevent injury to the muscles.
​Injury Treatment Several techniques designed to decrease inflammation and pain of recent or chronic injury.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Here are a few guidelines to help you feel at ease and to gain the greatest benefit from your massage session:
  • Undress to your comfort level. The practitioner is sensitive to your need for privacy and will keep you draped with a sheet, uncovering only the area being massaged.
  • Close your eyes and allow yourself to relax as completely as possible. Focus on your breathing... slow, deep and even. • When the practitioner’s hands locate an area of tension or pain in your body, consciously relax those areas. As you exhale, visualize the tension leaving your body.
  • Falling asleep during a massage is not uncommon. The practitioner will gently wake you when it is time to turn over and when the massage is finished. ​

​I have suffered for many of my 67 years with an arthritic back. And because of too many years playing too much racquetball I also have been blessed with sciatica and a total knee replacement.  Several weeks ago I somehow added a strained a  flank muscle into the mix. 
     Because I have a tendency to be a bit overzealous in my approach to exercise, I am very familiar with all sorts of medical treatments and have tried every medicine, therapy and machine known to modern (wo)man to feel better. None helped. I finally called the WRAC in desperation to see if a massage (the one thing I  hadn't tried) would ease any of my very real pain. They booked me into an hour slot with a new masseuse named Anja. 
     Never having this experience before, I didn't know what to expect. But I toddled in, laid down and was rubbed, pressed and drilled repeatedly from my neck to my knees. Holy elbows, I was cured! My back has never in my adult life been this relaxed and supple. All pain is gone, I can walk upright, twist and turn, and haven't stopped smiling!
     Please folks, if you have any physical affliction from overuse, aging or chronic disease go see Anja. It is well worth the time and few dollars spent to feel this good. - Pat Kastel


I went to Anja for a full body message and had her focus on my lower back.  The experience was painful, in that she found dozens of knots and tight muscles from my neck to my lower back.  She is very good at locating those
trigger points that are causing problems. A week later I visited her again for the same treatment, but this time it was not quite so painful.  A week later I had my third session with Anja and it was very enjoyable.  She gave me the same treatment, but due to her previous messages the sore and tight spots had improved substantially. I am looking forward to my next appointment. - Brian Gundersen
