Lynn entered private practice in 2004 after graduating from Ashmead College, now Everest College, in Portland. Soon after, Nike offered Lynette a coveted opportunity to practice at Nike World Headquarters in Beaverton as a contract therapist. She quickly built a loyal following serving Nike's executives, employees and families, who were drawn by her reputation as an exceptional deep tissue and therapeutic practitioner. Lynette's base of clientele extended beyond the Nike campus and included professional athletes from the NBA, NFL, MLB and WNBA.
After nine years at Nike, Lynette decided to take a new direction. Lynette's passion for the outdoors and for balanced living lured her to Bend. "By leaving behind the external pressures of a big business and big city, I have regained my inner balance and peace" says Lynette. "My best massage work will be done here, in this magical place."
