Stacey Smurawa LMT, MLD-C
Licensed Massage Therapist & Certified in Manual Lymphatic Drainage
I worked at an insurance company for eighteen years and was looking for a change.
I was looking to have a non-office job where I could interact with people face-to face
and to make people feel good. After looking and searching, I heard about Fox Valley School of Massage (FVSM). I have had massages previously and came to the
conclusion that massage would be the career for me.
I graduated from FVSM in June of 2008, and for 6 months worked as an Independent Massage Practitioner inside a Chiropractors office. In February of 2009 I opened up Soothing Touch Massage & Bodywork, LLC.
