Meet Britney Franklin

We’ve put together a virtual interview to help you all get to know our new massage therapist and reiki master practitioner, Britney Franklin! Hope you enjoy!

Please feel free to send us your questions about Reiki, Massage, Acupuncture, or all things Chinese medicine.

First off, what is Reiki?

Reiki is a form of energy healing that originated in Japan. 'Rei' means universal and 'ki' means vital life energy. The practice allows me to channel and guide energy to flow in a healthy way throughout the body of my client. It aids in healing by helping you become energetically balanced physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.

Who can benefit most from Reiki treatments?

Anyone and everyone can benefit from Reiki. It can do no harm. It helps ease stress, tension and pain, sleep disorders, anxiety, and so many chronic illnesses.

Why did you decide to become a massage therapist?

I have always been fascinated with human anatomy and the power of touch. Touch is my love language and it's so important in feeling alive. I knew I wanted to pursue a career in something that helped others heal, not just physically but also emotionally. As cheesy as it sounds, I truly feel like I was born to be a Massage Therapist. 

What do you love most about your work?

I love the human connection. I love the trust we build and the intention behind the practice. 

What do you love doing outside of work?

I enjoy being around my friends/boyfriend/family. I spend a lot of time reading, working out, being outside and gardening. I also really love to go thrifting. 

What are your favorite health/wellness tips?

Drink all the water! Remember to move your body and listen to what it tells you. It will always let you know what it needs. Nourish with the things that set your soul on fire. It's also important to slow down and unplug every once in a while, and truly be present. 

Britney offers integrated massage, prenatal massage, and ultimate relaxation treatments including massage and reiki. Call us at (843) 937-6890 to schedule your massage with Britney today!
