Meet Elizabeth Dimick LMT of Anew Muscle Therapy

Today we’d like to introduce you to Elizabeth Dimick LMT.

Hi Elizabeth, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I was told by many friends I should become a massage therapist. Started Massage school January 2003, East west college Beaverton Oregon,when a family member offered to pay for my schooling.,
Graduated September 2004 with 600 hrs, past the Oregon massage boards practical exam and NCBTMB written exam and gained my Oregon license March 2005, trained in small animal massage.
MFR, Hot stone, cupping, Bowenwork , Vodder Manual lymphatic drainage and Emmett Technique. I also teach the Emmett Technique. I offer McLoughlin scar release.
Much of my training is complimentary to each other.
But my most sought out technique is Emmett Technique clients travel 1-2 hours one way to get treatment since there are no other therapist in their area who are trained in the Emmett Technique.
My goal is to train more therapist out of the area so that many can gain access to the Emmett Technique.

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
My goal to work for a clinic for. 2 years then venture on my own.
I ended up leaving sooner for the clinic I was working at, but it was good move., while working in the clinic setting it was a struggle gave away lots of free chair massage, being new i thought this was what we did as massage therapist, but it just taught others to not respect our time.

We’ve been impressed with Anew Muscle Therapy , but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
I started out as Elizabeth’s massage therapy, then to Forest Grove Bowenwork,because my way of treating my clients has evolved to more complimentary therapy in the since, it’s not all massage but what modalities I offer is complimentary to each other.

Where do you see things going in the next 5-10 years?
Teaching more so we can get the Emmett Technique in other areas in the United States.
