CARLING

ESTHETICIAN

Carling is our skincare specialist. 
 
Her motto is “Self-care isn’t selfish.”, which fits Decide Massage & Wellness’s mantra exactly.  She’s a graduate of Evergreen Beauty College and also  brings some extensive life experience and work in the hospitality industry to our family.
 
Carling loves esthetician work and believes the best part of the job is watching a client leave their service feeling not only pampered and satisfied, but more confident in their own beauty.  She is very mindful of the ingredients in skincare products, and believes it makes all the difference in choosing the right applications for an individual's skin type.

Carling helps change the way people see themselves, improving self-esteem and pride.    She will be inquisitive with you, find out what you are looking for, and develop a skin care regimen that best fits you and your skin.

MaUREEN

MASSAGE THERAPIST

Maureen brings worldly experience with her to the Decide Massage & Wellness family. 

While having roots here in the Pacific Northwest, she has traveled the globe teaching yoga for over decade--to include time in Australia.  She returned to the Puget Sound region and obtained her massage therapy license  and now applies her intuitive sense of body dynamics to massage.

Maureen has experience treating people that have suffered from difficult on-the-job injuries, as well as those that are recovering from vehicle collisions.  

Self care is also important to Maureen, that that is a big part of what we do at Decide Massage & Wellness.  Her goal is to help people feel great, both mentally and physically.  She takes a holistic approach and considers the interconnected parts of the whole person when helping her clients with their individual needs.

When not applying her LMT skills or teaching a yoga class, Maureen spends time hiking, camping and playing with her pet tortoise.

ALISHA

MASSAGE THERAPIST

Alisha is the newest member of our Decide Massage & Wellness family, but she is no stranger to the massage therapy profession.  Our clients will benefit from her 13 years of experience and be overjoyed in her wide range of treatment options.
 
Since relaxation means something different for everyone, having accomplished therapists like Alisha on staff allow for choices depending on your individual needs.  She is comfortable providing a relaxing Swedish massage but is equally skilled at getting deep into the muscle for those with nagging pains and aches that require special attention.
 
Alisha can also provide specialty massages, such as prenatal and hot stone.  More intriguing is the indulgent Chinese honey facial massage, for those of you that want a deeply hydrating treatment that is both relaxing and improves skin cell turnover—while reducing inflammation.  You’ll definitely leave feeling comfortable and pampered.
 
During her time away from Decide Massage & Wellness, Alisha enjoys traveling,
working out, cooking, and spending time with friends and family.​
