I was born and raised right here in Champaign IL where I earned an Associates in Science with honors from Parkland College in 2002 and a Bachelor’s Degree in Economics from the University of Illinois in 2005.  One year later I completed Parkland’s Massage Therapy Program and was certified in 2006. DeCerbo Massage Therapy was officially recognized by the State of Illinois when I obtained my Massage Therapy License in 2007.

I Believe in massage.  Positive calm peaceful touch is part of neurological development, sustains peace in human interaction, and releases feel good brain chemicals.  I seek to calm and decompress the nerves to allow an unwinding at the body’s pace.. Many people have touch needs that massage can fulfill, especially with a skilled experienced therapist.

I believe everyone deserves to have the kind of profound relief my work can offer! I encourage a language of self love including good nutrients, rest, exercise, and relaxation.  Massage should be regular to allow the nervous system a habit of expecting decompression at least monthly if not more.  Massage should be in unison with perhaps strength training, yoga, pool therapy for a few suggestions that have worked for others.
