Pamela East, LMT
Life Alignment Coach & Advanced Practitioner
A Licensed Massage Therapist since 1987 and is a member of the Colorado Chapter of the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA). She lives in Gunnison, CO and serves clients in the Gunnison Valley. Having previously lived in Houston, Texas, Pamela maintains a robust quarterly practice with her clients there as well.
With over 32 years of experience in holistic body therapies and continuing education studies, she determines what the body needs not only from a client’s description of aches and pains but also by visually, physically and intuitively reading what her client’s body presents during a session. Each massage is customized and designed to fit her client’s needs – perhaps a relaxation massage, stress release, deep tissue, Swedish massage, sports injury relief, or gentle healing touch. Pamela also provides aromatherapeutic support in each session.
