Meet our Massage Therapist

---

Heather Hutcheson, NCLMBT 16979, has been offering her services here in the High Country since 2014. She has been at Chetola Resort for the past twelve years on a regular weekly basis as one of the lead therapists in massage and aesthetics.

Heather's style in her regular massage therapy work is to use compression in her long strokes, while adding medium to firm pressure, often using what is called a myofascial approach. In her unique style, Heather incorporates the training she has acquired from other modalities, using Thai massage practices, therapeutic vacuum cupping, visceral dynamics, and cranial sacral therapy.

In addition, Heather offers maternity massage for family members. Here, a mother can lay face down on a specialized maternity mattress and fully relax to receive the full benefits of massage on the back, neck and shoulders. Often, expectant mothers are relieved to be able to comfortably lay on their stomachs and allow themselves to melt into the massage.

As a long time resident of the High Country, Heather's services have gained a stellar reputation. Currently a part of the Massage Therapy program at Caldwell Community College and Technical Institute as an adjunct instructor and clinical supervisor, Heather has maintained a level of professionalism in her practice and work ethics.

The love of sharing health and healing tips extends beyond the classroom or clinic when a client is receptive to learning ways to help themselves, whether that be before or after the court. Heather enjoys the things she has learned along the way to better improve both performance and life off the courts.
