About Missi kibelbek

I hold a BS in Health Education from the University of Maryland, College Park. I graduated from the Baltimore School of Massage in 2000, where I studied advanced massage and bodywork, anatomy, physiology, and the clinical application of massage. I have also studied and include in my practice healing stone therapy, Reiki (currently working on level 3 and studying for mastery) and trained with Elaine Stillerman for Mother Massage.

A Maryland state licensed and nationally certified Massage Therapist with a private practice since 2001, I have also worked in health club and spa settings. I am currently sharing a space with organic aesthetician Shelley Birnbaum, with whom I've worked since 2007.

In addition to my work as a practitioner, I taught the massage certification program at the Holistic Massage Training Institute for three years.

Currently, I use Biotone's Pure Touch Organics massage cream for my basic massage services. I use a variety of natural products for my other treatments, all paraben-free.

Testimonials

Missi is a gem for the Baltimore community! She uses many years of experience and knowledge to help her clients relax and feel refreshed. She has a gentle touch, yet strong hands to help work out any tension you may have. She also uses amazing organic products that never feel too greasy or heavy. Her studio is an oasis in which one can relax and escape from a stressful day. She goes above and beyond to provide the best experience for her clients. She will heat the massage table on cold days, offer you a bottle of refreshing water after the massage, and she will send you will a personalized baggy of bath salts to take home for a later soak. I have seen Missi for many massages over the last few years and I highly recommend her to everyone! – Jesse D.

There are not enough words to explain Missi's talent. I feel as if in her industry, there are massage therapist, and there are healers. Missi is a true healer. She knows exactly how to increase your circulation in ways that will find and open any mental blocks I may have at the moment. Every time i leave her studio, I feel refreshed, both in body, and in mind. Her studio is calming, in every way imaginable, from the lavender smells, to the soft, and cozy sheets, to the delicious ice cold, glass bottled water she serves you. The first time I went to Missi was after making major dietary changes in my life after having my 15 month old son, in November of 08. I really feel her therapy gave me the energy to kick start my new diet program in the right way. As I never once stressed over the changes I had to make, because I started it with a clear mind. – Melissa Y.

Missi is a great massage therapist....she doesn't just go thru a 'routine' massage with you, but rather asks questions about problem areas YOU may be having, or spots that you may want concentrating on during the massage. It feels very customized, b/c it is! I also appreciate that she recognizes things going on with my body that I may have not realized myself, and gives me tips for helping myself, in day to day life, for problem areas that she finds. Her studio space is very relaxing, and you can tell that she pays attention to EVERY detail--the linens, the music, making me, the client feel welcome with tea or spring water...... and especially the great lotions and potions she uses in the massage (the aromatherapy powders she adds to the massage lotion are divine!). – Erin W.

Thank you so much for the massage today! It makes me feel better just to have the situation back there explained to me--don't know why, but I like to picture what's going on with my muscles. I will certainly be back, and continue to refer you to friends! – Hilary H.
