Movement and the miracle of the human body has always been of interest to Bridget.

In 2019, Bridget graduated with her doctorate of physical therapy from D’Youville College. She has worked in outpatient clinics and hospitals all over the United States. She has completed levels 1, 2A and 2B certifications for pelvic floor physical therapy from the Herman and Wallace Institute.

Candice Browning


LMT
Currently accepting new patients!

As a licensed massage therapist, Candice’s optimistic outlook provides wellness through massage that enriches her client’s state of being.  Candice’s deliberate and focused approach to the myofascial network helps reduce stress and pain and promotes relaxation of the parasympathetic nervous system, which helps run life-sustaining processes, like digestion, when one feels safe and relaxed.  Like the body, mind, and spirit, the myofascial network works synergistically to contribute to one’s overall well-being. Candice can cater your massage to any style you prefer, but has a specialty for craniosacral work.

Take your healthcare into your own hands, our dedicated practitioners are excited to meet you.
