Kelly Emerson, Founder

If you had asked Kelly 10 years ago if she would ever be a massage therapist, the answer would have been "Are you kidding me? No!" Kelly's passion for the past 20 years has been body movement in whatever form possible; our bodies are designed to move, unfortunately, pain and injuries prevent so many people from moving. Kelly decided to attend NIMA and has been a massage therapist since 2017 in hopes to help her personal training clients suffering from soft tissue injuries. Ever since then, she's been on the pursuit of learning and certifying in different modalities of therapy and healing. It is without a doubt that every person is different and responds to different types of healing. In more recent years she has developed an appreciation for light touch massage, lymphatic massage, and craniosacral (her favorite modality). Her most recent training was through The Egoscue University to become a certified Postural Alignment Specialist, the idea is that if you have pain in your body that is not due to an injury or congenital birth disorder, it is likely due to poor posture.... and then there's healing at the cellular level and that's taking Kelly down the next road. Come join her on this journey and take control of your pain!

Sarah Meers

I was fortunate to grow up in a holistic environment that cultivated my passion for health and wellness. In 2016, after my own health struggles, I earned a certificate as a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner. Learning how to nourish myself physically and emotionally has changed my life.

It made sense to add Massage Therapy/Cranio Sacral Therapy to complete my practice. I believe all massage is therapeutic with profound abilities to bring balance to the mind and body.

Jacob Bonagofski

Hi, my name is Jacob Bonagofski I am a Personal trainer and nutrition coach through the National Academy of Sports Medicine and my passion is helping others achieve their goals no matter how big or small. Back in the year 2020 I was severely overweight and always tired. My motivation and energy levels were so low that I could barely take the time out of my day to play with my two beautiful children after work. I was at a loss with the battle of my weight and had no Idea where to start. I sought out help from a personal trainer and nutrition coach who taught me many amazing tips and tricks on losing weight safely and effectively. At the end of my weight loss journey, I lost 132 and have never felt better! With such an amazing life achievement I decided to become a personal trainer and nutrition coach to inspire others as my coach inspired me.

With a passion for helping others feel their best, I have dedicated my career to the healing power of touch. As a massage therapist, I find immense joy in relieving stress, easing pain, and promoting overall well-being for my clients. My approach is rooted in compassion, skill, and a true desire to make a positive difference in people's lives. Before becoming a massage therapist, I spent 35 years as a hairdresser, where I discovered the same fulfillment in helping others look and feel their best. Whether through the art of hairstyling or the restorative power of massage, my goal has always been to enhance the well-being of those I serve. I look forward to being a part of your wellness journey and helping you achieve relaxation, balance, and renewed vitality.
