Summer is blooming in the PNW, the studio is blessed with bouquets of roses from my garden, as well as flowers from clients.  Yes, I do love flowers! Thank you for the gifts!

I will be out of the office from July 1-August 6.  Those of you with routine appointments have already been scheduled, those of you wishing to get onto the schedule- August is filling up fast.

July will see me walking the Camino del Norte- a goal I've had since struggling through the Primitivo with Long Covid and a vaccine reaction in 2023 followed by a hip replacement in December of 2024.  I am as ready as I can be, and excited to be doing this with my dear friend Paula, who lives in Northern Ireland.

With that being said- the grand babies and my children must be paid visits first- and a new grand daughter will be welcomed the beginning of July- tending to family first, Camino second.  If you are having trouble booking, now you know why!

Seize your life, live it while you can.  Have a curiosity about a place??  Go there while you can... and if you can't, read all there is to read about it, watch all the shows, learn everything.  Life is to be experienced and people are to be met and loved!

 

April 1, 2025

The Metta Center as you have known it for the past 15 years is no more.  The partnerships have dissolved and each practitioner has moved on.  As the original founder of The Metta Center, I have relocated to a smaller, more manageable office in Bakerview Square Business Suites: 410 W. Bakerview Rd, Suite 110, Room 138.  Back at it, in a beautiful space. L looking forward to seeing you there for an eclectic menu of bodywork, scar treatment, and Yoga Therapy.  

Sam is located on James Street: Bodywork with Sam
DJ is in Fairhaven: Bodywork for the Active
 

Happy New Year 2024!

Lise, Sam and DJ are pleased to be offering massage therapy most days of the week. Each of us practice Thai Massage in our own, unique ways and add scar tissue treatments to the mix as well.  We look forward to seeing you on the mat or table and assist you with your health care needs.

Iron Lotus Kung Fu is in full swing in our large group space.  You can learn more about Devlin Miller's fabulous program by visiting his website here: www.ironlotuskungfu.com

Yoga Classes

As of August 2023, Lise has retired from teaching group Yoga classes, and the other Yoga teachers chose to cease class offerings as well.  In true universal fashion, the ether takes care and the large classroom becomes home to Iron Lotus Gung Fu. You can check them out at: 360-224-3742. We welcome them, and hope you will too!

 

Effective April 3, 2023 masks will be respected, but not required.  Your therapist may remain masked for their protection or yours, and you may remain masked as well.  If you have a preference towards masking on the part of your therapist, please do let them know- each us is willing to support you in the best way possible.

 

If you are symptomatic, with any kind of illness- please reschedule the morning of your appointment at the latest.  If you show up ill, you will be sent home and charged as a no show. It is not in anyone's best interest to receive bodywork or attend a group class when one is ill.
