Meet Mia Lorenzen

Massage Therapist

Mia Lorenzen has lived in the San Luis Obispo area since 1993. Her passion for massage began at Hirudaya Holistic Life Center in 1997 where she earned her CMT certification. While practicing massage over the last 25 years, she has completed her studies in Shiatsu, Geriatric Massage, Swedish and Aromatherapy, Therapeutic, Deep Tissue, Active Release, Trigger Point Therapy, and Pre/Post Natal Massage. Mia is also trained in Hot Stone, Reflexology, Sport, and CranioSacral Therapy.  While attending CSU Monterey Bay in 2003 Mia worked as a massage therapist at Watercourse Way in Palo Alto, where she specialized in hot stone massage, body wraps, and individualized spa treatments. In 2005 Mia returned to San Luis Obispo where she began her own business, In Touch Executive Massage Therapy.

While building her business, Mia has worked under the direction of gifted chiropractors and developed a large network of both corporate and private clientele. Mia’s goal has always been to “provide exceptional massage treatments tailored to a client’s individual needs.” Mia believes it’s important to promote whole-body wellness through movement, massage therapy, and nutrition; she is grateful for the opportunity to work with her clients throughout their healing process through bodywork. 

When Mia isn’t working she’s a busy mother to two energetic and loving boys. They are an active family and are involved in many local organizations. It is important to Mia that her boys learn the value of giving back to the community. To this end, they volunteer with Boy Scouts, The Elks Lodge #322, and Operation Surf. Mia’s been an avid runner since 2000 and discovered her love for swimming while recovering from an injury. Mia is passionate about her work, family, relationships, and the outdoors. 

Meet Jasmine Potts

Massage Therapist

Jasmine was inspired to start her massage journey after a trip to Thailand at the age of 20 and receiving Thai massage for the first time. The strong energetic grace and wisdom the practitioners held and transferred to the body through Thai massage changed her understanding of life and the body altogether. She knew from that moment on that she would be a body worker.

Jasmine has been practicing massage since 2012, when she graduated from the Boulder College of Massage Therapy in Colorado completing over 1000 hours of schooling with a focus in Shiatsu and Sports massage. She has also been trained in prenatal, hot stone, Lomi Lomi and facial massage as well as deep tissue work.

Her biggest passions are dancing, art, and spending time in nature. Jasmine loves letting this reflect in her massage style by helping to inspire each client’s innate physical ability and creativity.
