Kevin Warner is a Licensed Massage Therapist who trained at Ashmead College in Everett, changing careers to pursue the art and practice of massage therapy after 20 years in a high pressure industry.  These years of working 40-60 hours a week -- and the stress those hours brought him -- helped him make his decision.  He understands at a deep, personal level the effects of stress and the need for a solution to the pressures of today's stress-filled lifestyles.  His decision was also influenced by the total support of Renee, his wife of 23 years.

Renee was a large part of the reason Kevin started Gentle Giant Massage.  After she was injured in a car accident years ago, she saw a reflexologist and massage therapist for rehabilitation. The expert taught Warner techniques that he could use at home to relieve his wife's pain.  So he tried it.  Renee told him he should do it professionally, a thought he first dismissed.  But the idea of helping others feel better, as well as relieve stress and pain, grew in his mind and he was finally able to open Gentle Giant Massage in 2007.  He also contracts his services out at Massage Envy in the Everett Mall.

"When I decided this is what I wanted to do, it became a passion for me," he says, "and the support of my wife was crucial for making the successful career change."

Through word of mouth and referrals, Kevin's reputation as an exceptional massage therapist is growing, as is his business.  And, at the end of every day, there's a good feeling about his work that wasn't as easy to come by when he worked in retail. 

For Kevin, the art and practice of massage therapy is a satisfying career and he sums it up by saying; "This is all about making people feel better."
