Bev (Retired therapist & Retired owner as of September 2022, Emily Gillette is the new proud owner) opened Soothing Sessions Massage in December of 2000 because of her passion for helping people through the use of therapeutic massage.

Sam is a 2012 graduate of The National Academy of Massage Therapy in Pennsylvania. His professional training includes Anatomy and Physiology, Biochemistry, Myofascial Release, Table Thai Yoga, and Sports Massage. From 1990-to 1994 he worked as a trainer in a sports medicine clinic while attending a local community college.

After a life-changing neck injury in 1995, which halted his healthy, active lifestyle, he began a rigorous regimen of anti-inflammatory and pain medications with minimal relief, leaving him feeling hopeless and depressed.

It was through his persistence to get back to his previous, healthy, active lifestyle that Sam gained an understanding and appreciation for healing methods that offered an alternative to surgery and avoided a lifelong regimen of pain medication which included chiropractic medicine and massage therapy.
