Abundant Life Massage, Inc. was founded in 2009 by Jenifer Funk and Katie Jones, two friends and businesswomen who have a common passion for massage therapy, massage therapy education, and our dogs! We are very excited about the tremendous growth of this amazing business and were able to expand, doubling our offices, just before our one year anniversary!
Abundant Life Massage is a distributor of Young Living Essential Oils, so if you are in need of any high quality, therapeutic grade essential oils or other Young Living products, just ask and if we don't have what you need in stock, we are happy to place an order for you. Not only do we offer Raindrop Technique as a treatment option but we also offer Raindrop Technique as a continuing education class so you may add this to your massage practice.
