I am the owner and sole operator of Michael Fafinski Massage Therapy. My education in massage therapy began at East West College of the Healing Arts, Portland Oregon, where I graduated in 2001. My studies included courses in anatomy, physiology, pathology, kinesiology, swedish massage, cranial sacral therapy, subtle body energy work. My continuing education courses have included prenatal, myofascial release, more anatomy/kinesiology/pathology and a variety of other techniques. Since graduating massage school I have worked in clinical settings with chiropractors, physical therapists, accupuncturists and other complementary medicine providers. I also enjoyed working in the spa world for many years at a day spa and a destination spa. Both have provided me with a lot of great experiences. Beyond massage therapy I enjoy spending time golfing, sailing, bicycling, listening to music and playing my drums.
