Lisa

After growing up working for a chiropractor and studying auto design/engineering, Lisa Boyd, decided to do what she loved best, help others. She enjoyed the benefit of this while working in a chiropractic setting and wanted to continue doing so through massage therapy. In September of 2003 after graduating from the Flint School of Massage Therapy, Lisa opened Essential Massage Therapy. Her staff of certified massage therapists are committed to providing clients with the special care and consideration to meet every person’s individual needs.

“We believe that massage is not just a luxury, but a necessity for everyone,” explains Boyd. “We have tried to keep massage affordable so that everyone can benefit from it. Our clients tend to come on a regular basis as a preventive care. Most feel a decrease in long-term aches and pains without medication.”

Lisa loves what she does and looks forward to coming to work everyday. Her training from FSMT includes, Swedish, deep tissue, reflexology, craniosacral, shiatsu, hot stone, and prenatal massage. Lisa has also continued her education on pre-natal massage at Irene’s School of Myomassolgy in Southfield, MI and is a member the Oakland County Birthnetwork (visit birthnetwork.org). She enjoys teaching others about muscle mechanics, the help chiropractic can bring to them, and how small changes in their life style can prevent their aches and pains.

In her spare time, Lisa enjoys doing anything outdoors, reading, and spending time with husband, Nate and their dog Molly.
