Olivia specializes in SoftWave Therapy protocols and helps patients understand how cellular healing fits into their overall recovery.
Olivia brings Southern warmth and exceptional expertise to our clinic, where she has been an indispensable team member since 2018. Originally from Georgia, Olivia made Minnesota her home in 2010, establishing roots in East St. Paul and graduating from Johnson Senior High School before pursuing her passion for healing at the Aveda Institute Minneapolis.
With over a decade of experience in therapeutic bodywork, Olivia's journey began as a certified massage therapist in 2016, quickly distinguishing herself through her remarkable ability to address soft tissue injuries and chronic pain conditions.
In January 2024, Olivia's role evolved to Lead SoftWave Technician Specialist, where she skillfully applies Extra-Corporal Shock Wave Therapy to address knee pain, shoulder injuries, and various soft tissue conditions. Her extensive background in massage therapy provides her with an intuitive understanding of the body's mechanics.
Olivia is also a key practitioner in our Spinal Rejuvenation Therapy program, working alongside Emily to create a therapeutic environment that promotes optimal healing and recovery.
Outside the clinic, Olivia embraces life's simple joys with her daughter and spouse. She finds renewal through camping adventures, expresses her creativity through drawing, and soaks up Minnesota's precious sunshine whenever possible.
