Anthony “Tony” Wariner

Owner / Licensed Massage Therapist, Certified Sports, FMT (RockTape), IASTM (RockBlades)

After spending the past six years in sales and the six years before that in commercial construction, I was ready for a change of pace and direction in my life. I had the firsthand experience of living with a massage therapist and sharing her passion for this most gratifying career. I wanted to feel the same way she felt after a hard days work; the feeling like you made a difference in someone's life. They felt better physically and mentally, and she felt better emotionally and spiritually. Wow, what a concept! Doing something you love and receiving monetary compensation for it. “Love what you do and you will never work a day in your life!” That never meant anything to me until I started my new career. Now I understand fully the meaning of that and the uplifted feeling Penny experienced. I am fascinated by the human body and what it takes to keep it moving the way it was intended.
Shortly after graduation from massage school, I completed my first course of continuing education and received a certification in Fascial Movement Taping and officially became a Rock Doctor or RokDoc for short! Shortly after that, I received my certification for Thermal Palms. A fantastic alternative to hot stones massage. These two certifications are only the tip of the iceberg. I am looking forward to more training in sports massage and therapeutic modalities in the near future.

Grace Burton

In the process of clearing my own skin, I fell in love with skincare. I graduated esthetics school in 2021 and my love for it only grew deeper. I want to help my clients with their skincare concerns so they can feel comfortable and confident in their own skin.

Troy Powell

Before becoming a graduate of Mountain Gateway Community College at the Roanoke Higher Education Center, the benefits of receiving massage therapy was a blessing in my life. With the love I have for helping others, I am proud to have made the decision to become a massage therapist and be able to give back in such a rewarding way!

Courtney McMahon Frye

Licensed Massage Therapist, Certified Sports and Cupping Massage

I have been very passionate about massage for as long as I can remember. In 2013, I decided to make this dream a reality. Swedish massage is the basis for all massage and I believe nothing feels better than the feeling of “melting on the table”. I specialize in therapeutic massage and love helping athletes prepare for their workouts and increase their mobility, as well as their recovery through sports massage. This has led me to my certification in Sports Massage under the direction of James Mally. I can't make you a new person but I can help make you feel like one.

Courtney Coffey

Licensed Massage Therapist

For as long as I can remember I have had a passion for helping others. I started my journey in the nursing field. This fulfilled my need to help others but proved to be very stressful on me. In 2013, I discovered a new avenue to fuel this passion and do so in a more peaceful environment, massage therapy. I couldn't be more satisfied with this decision. I look forward to showing you how to relax and feel better!

Kristen Self Thompson, LMT

Certified in Pre-Natal Massage, Hot Bamboo, Deep Tissue, and Cupping

I started my massage and bodywork career in Wild & Wonderful West Virginia, back in 2015, before moving to Roanoke where I now call home.
I have a passion for working with prenatal clients and received training from Nurturing the Mother, by Claire Marie.
I also enjoy working with clients who are just looking for relaxation, or for those needing assistance with alleviating tightness, tension, and “knots”. Hot Bamboo works wonders in combination with my massage techniques, and feels amazing, too!
