MATT WESO

CPT, Massage Intern

My passion to start working in this field stems from over 14 years of physical labor.

As my body started to wear, I looked for the best recovery methods. I explored the avenues of nutrition, running, stretching, massage therapy, chiropractic care and prescription medication just to name a few. In my journey, I found proper stretching, massage and carefully planned work-out routines were the easiest and most effective methods.

I am very excited that life took me on this path. I have always been drawn to helping others and love the idea of helping others through their wellness journey. Life is too short to live with pain.

I received my Certified Personal Trainer certification from the Brookbush Institute during the 2020 shut down. Currently I'm working towards my certification as a Human Movement Specialist and I'm enrolled at NWTC to become a Licensed Massage Therapist. Being new to the profession of health and wellness, I am eager to learn and grow.

To replenish my energy I hike with my dogs, play guitar and produce music. I also enjoy listening to Katie while she gushes over the latest research or workshop she's digging into. Passion and perserverance are contagious.

I found my passion for massage therapy during a daunting year of high school.

My father was diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis, my step mother with Plantar Fasciitis and my mother with De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis. All three of them suffered for almost a year before I started school for Massage Therapy. Once in school I practiced what I was learning on them every week. Seeing their pain disappear seemed like magic to a young therapist.

To this day I carry the same level of passion to help people live pain free. My focus is to help you achieve your goals. For you that goal might be eliminating pain during your golf swing, increasing hip mobility to help you PR your back squat or reducing scar tissue. What ever your health goals, I’m here to help.

I attended Everest College and received my diploma in 2008. I passed the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork September 2008. My education will always be ongoing. My basic training consisted of many different modalities. Including deep tissue, trigger point, swedish, prenatal, sports and so much more. Within the last few years I've added certifications in Thai Massage, Yoga, Medical Massage and Personal Training. I am currently working through advanced certifications in Orthopedic Clinical Massage, Nutrition and Corrective Exercise.

In 2019 I started volunteering as a Massage Therapist with Hospice through Aurora Healthcare. Before being cut off by COVID-19 I found the volunteer experience to be both rewarding and heart-wrenching.
