About Alyson Laurel, LMT, BS, Contributor
After graduating from the University of California, Santa Cruz with a degree in psychology and biology, I considered becoming a PT but decided to help people by becoming a Massage Therapist.
That was nearly 30 years ago and I've never looked back!
Alyson practices at the Jade Mountain Health Center along with a medical doctor, acupuncturist, Rolfer and other massage therapists and has learned from some of the top manual therapy educators.
She brings her years of clinical experience and expertise in massage to Masters In Massage Institute where she provides contributions to client procedural-based communications.
