Mary Trotter
Licensed Massage Therapist
Myofascial Release Practitioner
I am a Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) in the state of Maryland, with more than a decade of experience. I graduated from the Baltimore School of Massage in 2012 and obtained my massage license in 2013.
I began my professional career journey in the wellness industry in 2012. I had just returned from serving in the U.S. Peace Corps and decided to look into becoming a massage therapist. It’s something I had looked into some 30 years earlier, but the timing wasn’t right for me. I attended an information session at the Baltimore School of Massage and decided that day it was the right decision at the right time in my life.
In 2018, I began training in the John F. Barnes Myofascial Release Approach®. I am honored to have achieved the level of Advanced Myofascial Release practitioner and have taken the following courses: Myofascial Release I | Myofascial Release II | Unwinding | Advanced Unwinding | Rebounding | Fascial Pelvis | Fascial Cranium | Cervical Thoracic | Healing Seminar | Skills Enhancement Seminar
As a massage therapist, I strive to help people heal. To help them heal physically, I use many varied techniques and customize treatment for each client. When a client comes in for an appointment, we discuss their health history and together develop a treatment plan. The primary massage therapy modalities I use are the John F. Barnes Myofascial Release Approach® in addition to Deep Tissue, Sports Massage, Swedish, and Trigger Point Therapy. I may also incorporate techniques from Acupressure, Cranial Sacral Therapy, Reiki, as well as use Myofascial Cupping and Aromatherapy. I continue using techniques that have worked and will troubleshoot and incorporate new techniques to achieve our desired treatment goals.
