About

My Journey To Helping You

My journey into the world of holistic healing is both personal and profound. It began with a simple step - enrolling in massage school - but transformed into a life-changing quest after a significant health challenge. Three years ago, just as I was nearing the completion of my massage training, I faced a daunting adversary: COVID-19. The virus not only tested my physical endurance but also my mental fortitude, as I spent six weeks in the hospital and seven months on oxygen therapy.

During those dark days, I experienced moments of deep reflection and realization. The doctors were uncertain if I would ever be free from oxygen dependency. But I was determined not to let this be my life’s story. I remember sitting on my couch, envious of people simply for their health and freedom, something I feared I might never regain. But with unwavering determination, I weaned myself off oxygen and gradually reclaimed my strength and vitality.

This journey wasn’t just about recovery; it was a path to discovering my true calling. I believe that my survival wasn’t a mere stroke of luck but a divine purpose to help others heal. I found solace and improved breathing in the warm waters of my pool, which led me to pursue warm water therapy. This therapy, coupled with my massage skills, has become a cornerstone of my practice, offering a unique and effective approach to healing.

My practice is an amalgamation of various techniques - from lymphatic to deep tissue, from Swedish massage to magnesium wraps. Each technique is carefully chosen and skillfully applied to meet the unique needs of my clients. But my journey didn’t stop there. In a constant pursuit of knowledge and skill enhancement, I have become a medical massage practitioner, a step that enables me to extend my services even further.

The highlight of my personal healing journey was a trip to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. Climbing up to Inspiration Point was more than just a physical feat; it was a testament to my recovery and a symbol of overcoming adversity. It reminded me of how far I’ve come - from a place of helplessness to a beacon of hope and strength, not just for myself but for others as well.

I invite you to join me on this journey of healing and self-discovery. Whether you’re seeking relief from pain, looking for a way to de-stress and relax, or wanting to improve your overall well-being, I am here to guide and support you. Let’s embark on this path together, towards a healthier, happier you.

What Customers Are Saying About Diane’s Island Time Massage

I haven’t had a massage in years and Diane literally took care of all of my problem areas. The heated table was a lovely, comforting addition to the entire experience. I am still trying to figure out how she kept her hands so warm. Affordability, high quality in a service, friendly, inviting and relaxing atmosphere. I will be calling for my next appointment very soon.
