Massage Therapy Testimonials
I am having a hard time putting this into words that will adequately describe how much Laura has helped me through some of the most difficult times of my life.  I went to Laura because I was suffering from anxiety attacks and was looking for an alternative to just ingesting medication and weekly therapy.  Laura provided me the safe haven I needed to start the healing process.  Her ability to make me feel as though I was being listened to was so important to me.  Over the past months through massage she has taught me how to manage my anxiety as opposed to letting it manage me.  Her professional experience and ability to suggest various treatment options allows me to participate in my own healing.  Without her healing touch I would not be as far along in the healing process as I am today.

I have been getting deep tissue and trigger-point massage therapy from Laura regularly as part of treatment for a back problem. Laura is highly skilled and knowledgeable in her profession and will tailor each session to your exact needs. She has tracked my progress meticulously and genuinely cares about the results of her work. Laura clearly takes great pride in doing her work well and serving her clients and is compassionate about helping people achieve their desired results. If you have not already had the benefit of working with Laura, I highly recommend her - you will be making an important investment in yourself. If you are unsure about how much to invest in yourself think about how much you spend a year to maintain your car to keep it in shape and on the road (and that is not covered by any kind of insurance). Then ask yourself how much it is worth to you to keep your body and spirit maintained and tuned up. The problem is always finding someone who can be trusted to serve you with your best interests in mind. You can be assured that you will be in good hands with Laura.

Born and raised on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, Laura enjoyed living in the country with her family and their many adopted pets for 18 years. She has known all her life that she wanted to be a healer. When Laura was a teenager participating in team sports, her teammates would line up for her famous back rubs before competitions and trainings.

Laura has been a Certified Massage Therapist since 2004, and a Certified Educator of Infant Massage since 2007. She is nationally certified by NCTMB and a member of the AMTA. Her services include swedish, deep tissue, hot stone massage, raindrop therapy, fertility massage, pregnancy massage, infant massage, as well as intuitive readings. She may also use tuning forks, aromatherapy oils, flash-fire cupping and healing crystals in her massage therapy sessions. She loves being able to provide deep tissue and trigger point therapy work to her clients while also offering swedish massage to clients sensitive to pressure.

Laura has experience working with car accident victims, post traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and clients dealing with chronic pain issues. She works with clients of all ages, including teenagers, children, and infants.

Her true passion is with infant massage and teaching parents how to give their own infants massages for a lifetime of good health. She has realized that teaching parents to massage their children may be the best way to replicate herself, eventually allowing everyone to have access to daily massage in their lives.

Laura believes positive, nurturing touch is the most important gift family members can give to one another. A number of important elements help form the bond between parent and child. These include skin-to-skin contact, facial expressions, soothing sounds, cuddling, and smell. Infant massage incorporates these critical elements of bonding and provides a special time that fosters mutual love, compassion and respect. Massage for Babies helps relieve colic, improves blood circulation and digestion, helps baby sleep better, and stimulates brain development and sensory awareness, helping baby meet developmental milestones.

Love Your Baby Massage Class is a great experience for first time mothers and fathers, grandparents, adopted parents or foster parents, and caregivers looking for a special bonding experience for the second or third child. In fact, if baby has older siblings, they are encouraged to come to class too, so that big sister or brother can learn how to massage baby as well. This class has a focus on enhancing relationships within the family while you are celebrating the new addition! You can read more about infant massage at http://www.infantmassageusa.org/

If you are trying to get pregnant, or thinking about starting a family, fertility massage sessions would be a great idea (for both partners) to prepare for creating the ideal conditions for a healthy baby.  Laura studied fertility massage with Claire Marie Miller, http://www.nurturingthemother.com/  Fertility Massage helps the couple conceive by: increasing circulation, breaking up adhesions, supporting detoxification, reflexology for hormonal health, stress relief, energy balancing through cranial sacral techniques and acupressure, and teaching couples how to massage each other. 

As a graduate of Perceptive Awareness Technique, Laura also offers intuitive readings in person or by phone.   Intuitive readings can be used for insight into your past, present or future, including the exploration of physical and emotional health issues.  With Perceptive Awareness Technique you can ask about anything.  Learn more at www.perceptiveawareness.com  Intuitive readings can bring answers of clarity to your deepest questions about everything, from relationships to past lives to health issues to pet concerns to contacting deceased loved ones.

Laura graduated from Chesapeake College with her associates degree in massage therapy and an associates degree in liberal arts. She then continued her education at Towson University in theatre arts with a emphasis on acting. Laura believes acting is a fascinating study of the human spirit. Currently, she is a student at Tai Sophia Institute working on her masters degree in acupuncture. While she is not at school or hard at work massaging people into good health, Laura enjoys her time at home listening to The Beatles with her pug, Pops, and her cat, Baby.

She is also an Independent Arbonne Skin Care Consultant . . . Ask her about Arbonne (vegan, botanically based skin care) for You or Your Baby! You could also email her. LauraStaufferMassage@hotmail.com
