Barbara Federspiel, LMT
Hello! My name is Barbara. For nearly 20 years, I have been helping clients stay healthy and active.
My massage practice has seen me working with clients recovering from injuries/surgeries, managing the demands of pregnancy and delivery, navigating chronic illnesses, and maintaining optimum sports performance.
My training and style of massage range from Swedish to Deep Tissue, Peri-natal to Myofascial Release, Reiki to Sports massage, and Craniosacral Therapy to Abdominal massage. Each session is tailored to meet your specific needs!
I love getting to the root of a problem but more importantly, I love being an integral part of a healthy lifestyle. Massage makes people happy, and I love that instant gratification.
I am a mom to two wonderful and active children. When I am not volunteering at school or for my daughters’ sports teams, I am gardening or walking/hiking/running on some amazing PNW trail.
I am excited to meet you and help you stay healthy.
Oscar Plum, LMT
My name is Oscar Plum, and since graduating from the massage program at WCC, I have become a Licensed Massage Therapist. I have lived in Bellingham my whole life, which I am incredibly grateful for. I have always appreciated how beautiful this place is and have enjoyed going out and exploring. I grew up going on lots of hikes, playing soccer, and just running around outside. I try to live as active of a lifestyle as I can while still being healthy. This is where massage comes in handy!
I grew up quite lucky, having a massage therapist as a dad, receiving massages every other week since I was 10. This was vital in allowing me to be as active as I was, without experiencing a lot of the negative side effects. And that is just what I love about massages! They are incredibly effective in relieving adverse side effects of everyday life, and I love being able to provide that service to another person!
My biggest goal in massage is simply to be able to help my clients. I want every person that comes to see me to feel that our time together was positive, and helpful for their growth, whatever that growth may look like for that person. I want people to feel safe, comfortable, and heard because no growth will happen without these things.
