Greetings,
My name is Valerie Barrett, Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) and owner and provider of Massage by Design. Graduate of The Phoenix School of Massage Therapy.
I'm a solo, certified Medical Massage Practitioner (MMP), which means I'm able to work with your doctor to create a massage plan specific to your needs. It also means that I am capable of providing several massage modalities (MyoFascial Release, Lymphatic Massage, Swedish, Deep Tissue, Gua Sha, Cupping, Hot Stones, etc.) to aid in your recovery, relaxation, and pain Management.
I'm also certified in Manual Lymphatic Drainage, (MLD-C), (general and post-op care) and certified in Table Thai Massage.
Membership: Associated Bodywork & Massage Professionals (ABMP).
My love for massage began long before I opened my private practice in 2013. No matter the location (my office or your home) my goal is to offer a phenomenal massage experience, every time!
I feel very fortunate to serve clients from all walks of life. From NFL players to prominent attorneys, and retirees. My massage sessions are as compassionate and unique as the individuals I serve.
I have provided massage to the BP MS 150 Cyclist, clients at Za Spa at The Za Za Hotel, Spa at the Waterway inside the Woodlands Marriott Hotel, and to My Evergreen Medspa where they requested and I accepted the role of being their first massage therapist from 2023-2025 ... I worked directly under the supervision of a world-renowned plastic surgeon/ medical director providing post-op manual lymphatic drainage massage to patients within 24-48hrs after surgery.
In my second location since 2014, I began offering the gift of massage to the residents of The Conservatory at Alden Bridge and I still enjoy pampering the retirees one day a week.
Massage by Design is a safe space for all! I am here to help you maximize life by adding massage to your self-care and wellness routine.
