About Us
Liz Di Giulio BA, AA, CMTI received my BA in Art/Graphic Design from San Jose State University and gravitated to working in high tech. All my work required me to sit at a desk all day. I had always watched how people moved and was very interested in the ergonomic experts who helped people in pain set up their stations properly. I also became fascinated with physical therapy, which I got to experience after sitting at a desk and developed tendinitis in my thumb from holding the phone in my hand for long periods. I was curious to know the reasoning behind the treatments (which included massage) and exercises I was given. Eventually, I found my health was being compromised as a result my high stress job, and I got the opportunity to pursue massage as a career and as a way to regain a healthy life.I studied massage at De Anza College and was fascinated with the sports massage and biomechanics as well as the trigger point and neuromuscular re-education classes. These were particularly interesting to me because of the varied applications for pain and rehabilitation, and the necessity of understanding why I was working on particular structures. Plus, I get to watch and analyze how people move as part of my job! |
