Bessie 

Licensed Massaged Therapist (LMT)

Pressure: Light to Firm

Bessie brings a thoughtful, therapeutic approach to bodywork at MEND, blending clinical knowledge with a calming, restorative touch. Originally from Chicago, Bessie comes from a background in the spa and beauty industry and graduated from the Soma Institute of Clinical Massage Therapy, where she developed a strong foundation in anatomy and therapeutic massage techniques.

Her sessions are highly customized and rooted in attentive care, helping clients feel safe, heard, and supported from the moment they arrive. Bessie believes that listening closely to each client’s goals and concerns is essential in addressing the root cause of pain, tension, and stress within the body.

Specializing in deep tissue massage with a slow, restorative flow, Bessie combines effective therapeutic work with a gentle, grounded approach that allows the body to relax while still achieving meaningful results. She is skilled in deep tissue massage, Swedish massage, cupping therapy, hot stone massage, and gua sha techniques, making her an excellent fit for clients seeking pain relief, stress reduction, muscle recovery, or a more intentional wellness experience.

At MEND Studios, Bessie is passionate about creating an experience that leaves clients feeling restored, balanced, and genuinely cared for throughout their wellness journey.
