The people
Dee Baker found massage therapy at 16, during her mom's treatment for Multiple Sclerosis. She graduated from The Denver School of Massage Therapy in 2006 (815 hours of training, a cadaver lab and 90 days in a hands-on clinic), moved from Colorado to Arizona, and has been a licensed massage therapist for 20 years. She specializes in maternity massage, from fertility through pregnancy to postpartum, using bodyCushion support so expecting mamas can lie face down, and every treatment is customized to the client. She is also a certified labor doula and teaches a prenatal massage CE course for other therapists.
