Chris Rasmussen, LMT, NC
Chris was working as a database developer when he decided that he needed a new direction in life. He made the decision to go to massage school just six months before being laid off from his job. Fortune had given him the push he needed to take a new path.
After graduating from the Bancroft School of Massage Therapy in April, 2008, he began practicing in Rhode Island. He treated a wide range of clients and began to develop his professional skills. Much of the clientele were athletes and martial artists, so deep tissue and sports massage were the primary focus. In August of 2008, he relocated to Massachusetts and began training in TMJ technique under April Laucis.
In addition to massage, Chris has an extensive background in Kung Fu, Tai Chi, Qigong and Yoga. He studies Chinese Martial Arts under Master Wen-Ching Wu, and was an instructor at Way of the Dragon in East Providence, RI until his recent relocation. These practices inform his massage technique and body awareness. They give him a clear view of the interactivity and interconnectedness of the musculature. He is a strong proponent of developing balanced strength, starting at the core.
We hope to add strength training and meditation to our program soon. Contact Chris if you are interested in meditation or martial arts instruction.
