Bonnie - Licensed Massage Therapist
In 1979 I started working at the Florida Power Bartow plant on Weedon Island. In 1992 I transferred to the Crystal River Nuclear Plant to be closer to my daughter in Tallahassee and started a position as a Nuclear Chemistry Technician. I left this position in 1998 to pursue my dream and enroll into Humanities School of Massage. One of the best decisions I have ever made, as it has changed my life. I went from working with energies from the elements of the periodic chart, to working with human energy. I love what I do and I use whatever modality is needed for each individual. Whether it be Relaxation, Trigger point, Cupping, or Chakra opening. Outside of the spa, I enjoy spending time with my grand kids, the beach (especially during storms), and I love making bracelets with crystals! I have been working with energy for 40 years, and Essentials has the best, most positive energy of all.

Carrie - Licensed Massage Therapist
Growing up in upstate NY originally, I have lived in Florida since 1990. My mother would frequently tell me not to be in such a hurry to grow up, and at the young age of 10, I replied "But I have to, because I have to help people!'
This desire to help people caused me to attend massage school in 1997 while living in Cocoa, Florida. It also lead me to donate a kidney to a stranger in July
2015, and most recently begin volunteer work with hospice. I have certifications as a reiki master and personal trainer, but my main specialty during my 19 years of experience is offering deep tissue therapeutic corrective work. I am confident in my ability to quickly find any issues and fix them with unique techniques I have developed.
When I am not working, I enjoy watching the Tampa Bay Lightning at the Amelie Arena, attending music concerts and spending qualify time with my husband and 5 children. Essentials ownership, staff, and clientele have been wonderfully welcoming to me since I joined the Pasadena Essentials family on in November 2016.
